[Samu Cuenca]

GT stage winner?
Did he start a GT in 2005?

 

[DJ Sprtsch]

Last name ends with a "v".
Has had Valverde as a team mate?
Participated in the Beijing Olympics?

 

[Armchair Cyclist]

Nope.

Been through the 2005 top 300 and picked out those Europeans that were not in the EU in 2000 and have flags with red, white and blue. There are 18 of them.
4 of them have WT wins, and of them 2 rode after 2015, one raced against Rick Zabel and one has only raced one of the monuments.

I'm out (or gone wrong somewhere).

Raced after 2015? No

 

[Armchair Cyclist]

@AmRacer
Precisely: that's why I excluded them, and have been left with no-one fitting all the criteria.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

@AmRacer

AC is listing why it can't be any of them.

But I guess it's probably a Russian then, or Arvesen who might technically not be employed by a WT team at this very moment.

There were several Russians among my 18.

I am taking WT as starting in 2011, and I suspect that is where my shortlisting may depart from Devil's Elbow's answers.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

The WT win should have come with an asterisk at the very least, did not consider the fact that every single pre-2011 (or -incorrectly- according to PCS, 2009) win is technically a non-WT win.
