Vanmarcke breaks collarbone at l’Eurometropole Tour

The Omloop Het Nieuwsblad podium: Tom Boonen, Sep Vanmarcke and Juan Antonio Flecha

Belgian’s 2012 season comes to an end

Sep Vanmarcke (Garmin-Sharp) abandoned stage 2 of the l’Eurometropole Tour (Circuit Franco-Belge) today, reportedly due to a broken collarbone, bringing the 24-year-old Belgian’s 2012 season to a close. Vanmarcke was part of the winning eight-man break on yesterday’s opening stage and started the day eighth on general classification, 15 seconds down on race leader Jurgen Roelandts (Lotto Belisol Team).

Vanmarcke’s 2012 season highlight was his victory at Omloop Het Nieuwsblad where he out-sprinted his breakaway companions Tom Boonen (Omega Pharma-QuickStep) and Juan Antonio Flecha (Sky) in the Belgian semi-Classic.
