Ronan Augé in induced coma after Langkawi crash
Ronan Augé is in a medically induced coma after crashing early in stage six of the 2026 Tour de Langkawi. The 22-year-old had placed fourth twice in the race's first five stages. His condition is stable and not life-threatening, but the team has disclosed no timeline for recovery.
Augé arrived at Langkawi with real form behind him — his first professional win came in June at Route d'Occitanie, and the two fourth places this week suggested a rider building toward more. He's in his debut season with Unibet Rose Rockets, signed from Groupama-FDJ's development ranks on a deal through 2027. The crash happened between Pandan Indah and Rembau, ending his race before it could build on that momentum.
