Lukas Nerurkar is dealing with a long list of injuries after being hit by a driver earlier this month, with EF Education-EasyPost outlining in a medical update that the British rider has a broken and dislocated collarbone, a fractured sternum, fractured vertebra, broken rib and a small puncture in one lung.

The crash occurred on July 2, while the 22-year-old was training at home in England as he visited family after having recently raced the British National Championships. It resulted in a two-night hospital stay for the third-year professional and also surgery on his collarbone within that week.
