“With a broken rib, broken shoulder blade, broken hand, bruised lungs and a dislocated right collarbone which caused all the surrounding ligaments to rupture, it will be a long journey, but I am fully focused on my recovery and am determined to return stronger, step by step. I am very grateful for all the help and support I have received in the last twenty-four hours. From the emergency services, to the neighbors who helped me personally, to the medical teams in Anderlecht and Herentals and our team doctor Phil Jansen – explained Evenepoel through a post on social media – A special mention goes to my wife, my family for being by my side in these difficult moments, and to everyone for their messages of support. I also want to express my support to the woman involved in the accident.”
