Nope.

Italian cyclist Sonny Colbrelli has had a defibrillator fitted and has been discharged from hospital two weeks after collapsing at the end of a race.

Colbrelli, 31, lost consciousness and required defibrillation at the finish of the Volta a Catalunya in Spain.

His team Bahrain Victorious said he had left hospital in Padua, Italy, after "a successful intervention of subcutaneous defibrillator (ICD) implantation".

Last week, Colbrelli said it was a "miracle" that he was alive.

Speaking to La Gazzetta dello Sport, the European champion added: "Now it would take another to get me back on the saddle."
