ON SATURDAY, Fabio Jakobsen won stage two of the Tour de France in a reduced sprint finish after a late crash split the peloton in Nyborg.
It marked a remarkable comeback for the 25-year-old Dutchman, making his tour debut less than two years after suffering life-threatening injuries in a crash at the Tour of Poland.
He delivered Quick-Step Alpha Vinyl’s second stage win in as many days as he beat Wout van Aert and Mads Pedersen to the line.
