is there an update on de Lie injury?

No injury apparently -

Lotto-Intermarché were banking on a result from Arnaud De Lie and worked most of the day to keep him in contention, but a single moment knocked him out of the race.

"This was the most dangerous Omloop of my life," De Lie told Sporza.be after the race. "There was a huge amount of nervousness in the peloton, especially with this wind.

"Initially, it was actually a perfect day for me. OK, it was impossible to follow Mathieu on the Molenberg, but after that, I was up there with the best. Only five kilometres from the Muur, someone fell next to me, and I broke my wheel. That was the end of the story."

I still think Van Aert was given a gift by falling ill this time around.
He'd have been unlucky enough to crash hard.
