Three-time Madison world champion Amy Pieters is to remain in an induced coma for at least three more days after a training crash, her team SD Worx said on Monday.
"The doctors emphasise that extra rest at this stage gives a better chance of recovery," SD Worx said in a statement. "The doctors will not be able to assess any damage until they have woken Pieters up.
"At the moment no further announcements can be made about the accident and we ask everyone to respect the privacy of those involved. Our thoughts are with Amy and her family."
