Mental or random cycling statistics

With Kruijswijk being in the break, I thought to myself "It must be a while since he won": I didn't expect his most recent win to have been as long ago as August 2014 (nor that he only has 2 wins). And his last WT win was June 2011.

Seems extraordinary to still be racing at the same team level, having been a winner, for so long after a win. But is it a record?

Sort of outdoes Kelderman: on WT for longer, and has proved capable of a win.

Luis Ángel Maté went 12 years without a win while riding for second tier teams (Cofidis were WT in his last season with them) before he started winning in Guarda in the Volta a Portugal, but he never won anything above .1.

Random fact:

Soudal is the only organisation with a team in all four races* Sunday.


*Specifically those four races that are taking place in Northern France.
