Obviously not, Remco is the third/fourth best climber in the world, but the gap is significant for Pogacar and Vingegaard. Remco said yesterday, that they are in another league.
They can put minutes on everybody in one single mountain stage.

do we really want Remco being managed by someone like Dr. Gianetti and UAE?
I will take Bora. And Specialized.

pantani did an amaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaazing (read: in-credible) TT when he had to at the end of the 1998 TDF -- but we know how that happened.
I don't understand. I've been following the forum regularly these last days and seen many posts from you and now I learn you were banned? 🤔 Was I living in a parallel universe?

It's almost impossible to find pictures of Justine Henin without cold sore and she still won a bunch of Grand Slams. Could be a good sign for Remco.
Wow! Crazy. Really interesting.
"A deal between Remco Evenepoel and Red Bull- BORA - hansgrohe imminent" according to reports
Remco Evenepoel and Primoz Roglic have gone head to head at a number of Grand Tours over recent years. In 2025 and beyond however, could the superstar duo become teammates at Red Bull - BORA - hansgro...cyclinguptodate.com
Remco to Red Bull?
They definitely have a bunch of individuals who should add up to a great team. Is that organization better for developing a young rider? Certainly have had my issues with Soudal in that respect. No idea, curious what those in the know think.
Hard to imagine Rogla being too stoked about it. Certainly there are enough races over the year to split between them, but there's only one Tour. Who leads?
But she would have won 20 without sores!
You were probably imagining every logical and funny post to be posted by me. It's called conditioning.
According to this report, Ineos (obviously) but also UAE and Israel want to sign him? So that he could become a domestique to Froome or Soler? Seriously, why would UAE even bother, are they about to fire Pogacar?"A deal between Remco Evenepoel and Red Bull- BORA - hansgrohe imminent" according to reports

Matxin must have the wet dream of going to the Tour de France with a squad made up of Pogi, Remco, Vingegaard, Ayuso, Almeida, Yates, Del Toro and Jay Vine
La Vuelta ciclista a España 2022 Stage 10 (ITT) results
Remco Evenepoel is the winner of La Vuelta ciclista a España 2022 Stage 10 (ITT), before Primož RogliÄ and Rémi Cavagna. Remco Evenepoel was leader in GC.

Roglic is similar to Pogacar en Vinbgegaard in an ITT, except if we talk after several mountain stages...Maybe is today a little bit worse, but not too much.

In normal conditions Vingegaard a little bit better than roglic.
This ITT was after some mountain stages. Remco is not going to put lot of time to then with 100 km of more or less flat ITT, but matbe enough to manege in the mountains and hace some options.
Just trying to drive the price up for their rivals.
I also wonder why Astana, with their new found budget, wouldn't be in the mix as well.
They are in another league, but I dont consider Pogacar a pure climber, Vingegaard can put more time to Remco, Pogacar no so much. It depends the kind of mountains, for Remco high gradientes are a limitant factor, but with less gradient he is really good, and if there is a false flat btween climbs he can recover time. The only problem is his skills descending...Vingagard and Poggi and half the peloton are in another league. It is normal if you came from Football and has a serious crash as he had at Lombardie.
Vingegaard had margin to improve when he apears 3 years ago, and Remco has that margin as he started late cycling. Poggi is not the best of the worl, but he cant improve more.

Just has to start his computer on during the warm ups and neutral zone.
A regular person can have a herpes outbreak with sores but without other symptoms. But perhaps at the elite level it still would have some detrimal effect on performance.
And before anyone accuses me of suggesting Remco is some sexual scoundrel, half the population carries the herpes virus, many of whom don’t know it until tested.

Those 50-60km ITTs cause massive time gaps. The gaps really expand once you go past 40km
Remco is the last slender hope for an upset of the Pog/Vingo applecart. Based on previous grand tours, this may be a pipe dream, but I've been impressed with Remco's performance to this point.
If he goes somewhere to win the Tour de France it should be Ineos, he won't fit in at Bora under its present roster.
I tend to agree on the INEOS part, but what's wrong with Boras roster in regards to Remco?
Would rather see him go to UAE, would be ridiculous to see Pogacar and Evenepoel ride in the same team.
And Remco can play some cards in ddifferent situactions in this Tour, but specially in the future.
For instance:
Poggi attack, but this time Vingegaard caucgh early and stop, doesnt colaborate. Or de opossite...we have seen that lot of time. Remco has the level to catch them early or even respond the attack..He can attack after that and if came a flat part, it is not clear, Poggi and Vibngegaard are going to colaborate..maybe yes, but who knows, so Remco will be always a threat, becpuse he is good at everything, but the best of GC riders going faster at the flat. He doesnt use to be fear to attack, so, he is always a factor. With Roglic you know has a good level in all terrains, he is determined, he is a fighter and he is quite regular: He is going to be there and you have to show big level to beat him, but I dont see at him the same danger than with Remco for that reason...the way he caucht the duo on Bolonia, the way he recovered time in just 2 Km of false flat on descent of The Galibier...That make him the difference for him and it is a threat.

I think Red Bull with guys like Pellizzari, Lazkano and Pithie come in would be an improvement when compared with Quick-Step and staying with the Specialized bikes would obviously be an advantage that he won't have in an Ineos for instance.
However I think that the most important thing for Remco now is to focus on racing. Right now, podium is looking like a real possibility for him at the Tour (winning is still a step too far imo) and apart from that, he has two real major events coming up, the Olympics and the World Championships.
I do believe that he is going to do great and possibly even win a gold medal in both the Olympics and Worlds and in Zürich it wouldn't shock me if he actually wins both races. Then in Il Lombardia, he should also be able to challenge for the win, though Pogačar will always be very difficult to beat there. Let's just hope Remco stays healthy and injury free.
