Two fingers raised in victory and a heartfelt thanks. Filippo Baroncini says goodbye to Niguarda Hospital in Milan, where he was treated following the injuries sustained in the crash at Tour de Pologne on August 6th.

The 25-year-old from Massa Lombarda, riding for UAE Team Emirates XRG, had already stated in this morning's statements to La Gazzetta dello Sport that he was optimistic and eager to return to racing after the long hospitalization.

He will need to be patient, he who has already overcome many injuries in his young career, but never one so complicated. By his own admission, he is alive by a miracle, so today is already worth celebrating.

When he gets back on the bike it will be another beautiful day, but for now let's enjoy this moment. Welcome home, Filippo!
