Moncoutié out

After crashing during the weekend's Criterium International, David Moncoutié (Cofidis) will miss next few weeks of racing. Although Moncoutié didn't break any bones, he injured his right knee, hip and left elbow, and had to undergo minor surgery in Charleville-Mézières hospital to clean the wound. He will miss the Vuelta a Pais Vasco next week, and probably Fleche Wallonne and Liege-Bastogne-Liege.
