Abrahamsen’s Tour de France hopes still alive despite collarbone break
Jonas Abrahamsen (Uno-X Mobility) is not yet ruled out of the Tour de France despite fracturing his collarbone in a crash at the Baloise Belgium Tour, according to his team. New scans suggest the break is less severe than feared, and surgery may not be needed.
The Norwegian, a standout attacker and KOM jersey wearer at last year’s Tour, is already back training on the turbo, just 17 days out from the Grand Départ in Lille. “The chances remain very slim,” Uno-X said, “but he’s motivated to do everything possible to be ready.”
Team staff emphasized that his long-term health will dictate any final decision.
He’s not alone: Louis Vervaeke (Soudal–QuickStep) is also on a recovery race after breaking his collarbone at the Critérium du Dauphiné. With the clock ticking, both riders are clinging to slim but hopeful timelines.
