The young Belgian rider Remco Evenepoel, big favorite of the Tour of Lombardy, suffered a very impressive fall on Saturday in a descent during the Tour of Lombardy, falling over a parapet and into the void. The Deceuninck-QuickStep team rider suffered a broken pelvis and lung contusion, his team said. The 20-year-old runner, who has fallen over a parapet, "will be unavailable until further notice," Deceuninck added in a statement. This could call into question his end of the season, especially his participation in the Tour of Italy (3-25 October), which should have been his first Grand Tour.
