Following his COVID-19-enforced abandon from the Giro d'Italia last month, Remco Evenepoel is preparing to return to racing at the Tour de Suisse, which starts on June 11.

The Belgian has fully recovered from the virus which saw him abandon the Giro from the race lead after nine days of racing, and his first race back will be in Switzerland, where he won the closing time trial last summer.
