Thats true, but he has been out with a lot of injuries the last two years. Broken collarbone x 2, fractured hip, scapula and hand. His class is undisputed, but ofcourse, like Remco, he needs a longer period without big injuries to get back to top level. Anyways i think this is a good signing...

He had a promising debut season last year. Struggled with a knee injury this winter and has unfortunatelly stagnated this season. Lacking base and top speed. Rumours is that he has not been offered a new contract and is going to EF next year. He definitely has potential in classics and from...

First win after yesterdays Remco exit news🥳 Magnier is really special. He has improved his kick and top speed this year. Today he won by a country mile and he was also clearly the fastest on stage 1, but came from way back and also had to avoid riders in the last bend so had to settle for...

The cat is out of the bag and it is finally confirmed that Remco is leaving us after this season 😔 Personally i would like us to spend some of the Remco money from RedBull to buy out Jarno Widar from his contract at Lotto. A new Belgium super talented climber and a future GT winner. This is...

Yes💪 After missing out on stage one and a lot of bad luck with crashes and Cattaneo abandon, we have to be super happy with 3 stage wins so far😃 Now it will be very interesting to see how Remco will go in the mountains. On the negative side he has used more energy than Pog and Vinge so far. On...

The best TT Pog has ever rode i believe. Their DS said the same. I was quite surprised of how technical the course was, not only at the start and finish, where i believe Pog took all together 8-10 seconds on Remco, even though Remco was actually pretty good technical today. Pog was flying into...

Like we saw yesterday and we will see in all other stages that is not pure sprint stages or a TT. Merlier and Van Leberghe will comit 100% to Remco and the team for as long as they can. Tomorrow we will see those two helping Remco out with bottles, positioning etc before they ease off when the...

I’m with you on the marginal gains, but 30 minutes behind Eenkhoorn who is twice the size of him is more like pacing behind a motorbike for Remco, nice training to hit peak form before the TT and to stay in a good position! Unfortunatelly he tend to be the worst two days after a crash, so lets...

Remco and the team can not do a thing right in most of yours head!The team did great work putting Remco near the front from Km 25 until 4K left, which normally is a very good idea, he got super unlucky with the crash infront of him after they eased up a bit!Cattaneo and Eenkhorn rode their heart...

It is only one way to respond to this bad start and that is for Remco to attack with menace tomorrow!Like i said in a earlier post, the team looked pretty physically strong today before they totally fell asleep in the end!The question is when to attack! Personally i would let the other teams...

Agreed!What is the point of being really attentative in the first part of the stage, and totally turned off in the last decisive part!I cant get my head around this one, he should have been easy with the first group. Merlier and Van Lerberghe was in a good position only a couple of kilometers...

Yes. He had plenty of oppurtunities 1-15k before the last wind sector to move up in the peleton!Either he is sick or else is an incredible amateurish tactical mistake by him and the team!Really strange as the team looked good in the earlier wind sectors with Cattaneo,Eenkhoorn,Remco,Schachmann...

What the *** was that? Either he is sick or he did that on purpose..He didnt even help to pull the second group one time?Flat road and sidewind should be walk in the park for the best TT’er in the world!Something really wrong here

A little bit disapointing to only beat Vermeersch with 1:11, although he is a strong in form rider. Hopefully Remco had something more left in the tank!He arrived late to the hotel last night after a bumpy ride from Lyon and a hard altitude training camp! After Sundays road race he should take...

Exactly👍The one tailor made for this job is Eenkhoorn. He is super strong rouler,in good form and is big of build so Remco will have perfect shield/slipstream behind him for the first 9 stages. Except stage 6 which is like a classic (LBL lookalike) stage with over 3000 vertical meter of...
