“Tests in hospital have revealed that he has suffered a broken collarbone and several ribs. He remains under supervision at the hospital,” the team added on the social media platform.“Remco will return to Belgium tomorrow to be operated on a broken collarbone and pass further tests at the hospital at Herentals,” his Soudal-Quick Step team announced.
Several of the 12 riders involved in the crash fell into a concrete ditch after sliding off on a corner with around 35 kilometres to go in the run from Etxarri Aranatz to Legutio, in northern Spain. Roglic, who also abandoned the race, offered a thumbs-up to television cameras while sitting in the Bora-Hansgrohe team car, to show he was not significantly injured.

Our team was spared, but we feel for those who got caught,” said team Decathlon-AG2R on X.Remco Evenepoel broke his collarbone and will return to Belgium for an operation as he was a casualty of a horror mass crash during the Tour of the Basque Country. A six-man breakaway was allowed to continue to try and race for the stage win in the final 18km, with Louis Meintjes crossing the line first.
