Unfortunately, this means Oscar will be unable to compete in this year’s Tour de France," the team said in a statement. Belgian Wout van Aert will also miss the Tour de France after injuring his elbow at the Tour Auvergne-Rhone-Alpes. Onley said he was "gutted" to miss the biggest race on the cycling calendar. "My focus is now on recovering and getting my shoulder in a good place, but I’m really motivated to try and make something out of this season," he added. The Tour de France will set off on July 4, beginning with a team time trial in Barcelona.
