Jakobsen suffers another setback as he breaks collarbone at Renewi Tour
Fabio Jakobsen was on the road back to himself following iliac artery surgery in the spring, but his comeback has been interrupted by a broken collarbone inflicted during stage 3 of the Renewi Tour.
The WorldTour stage race that visits Belgium and the Netherlands was the sprinter's second appearance after almost five months out of competition, his first being the PostNord Tour of Denmark where he completed two stages before withdrawing on the morning of the time trial.
It's been a tough few years for Jakobsen with results few and far between, and while his goals are "to regain competition hardness and race rhythm" for the time being, the Dutchman has reported significantly better feeling in his body since the surgery. [Picnic PostNL]
