Two months after breaking his collarbone, in a high-speed crash on the run into the finish line on stage 3 at the Tour de France, Caleb Ewan (Lotto Soudal) returned to racing at Druivenkoers-Overijse

The Australia rider had initially hoped that this would be the year that he could take at least one stage victory in all three Grand Tours. He was on track after the Giro d’Italia, with two wins, but that plan quickly unravelled when he crashed and suffered a displaced complex fracture of the right collarbone on the very first opportunity for a sprint stage victory at the Tour de France.
