    We all know what race this guy is gonna win in the future: https://www.procyclingstats.com/rider/vaughn-veenendaal (And where his ancestors - well, some of them at least - were from.)

    Mental or random cycling statistics

    My point that was that between the Spanish guy who won the Vuelta a Espana, and the Danish guy who won the Tour de France, which one would you assume was the one who won the one starting in his home country?

    Giro d'Italia Giro d’Italia 2024, Stage 14: Castigliano delle Stiviere – Desenzano del Garda, 31.2k (ITT)
