How has Evenepoel's winning mentality been expressed in stage races?
You mean the GT's i take it. Cause outisde of that, there are plenty of easy examples.
-Last stage of PN 2024
- Catalunya 23
- Algarve 2020
-Burgos 2020
- Norway 2022
- Tour of Belgium 2019
- Tour de Pologne 2020
I remember spectatcular stages in all of them from Remco.
As for GT.
I'm gonna immeditaly disqualify both giro. (first came too early and out of form, second he left with covid. You can maybe make an argument for that final TT ride but all in all he left that Giro 2 early for me to cosnsider.) I also have to disqualify this year Tour. You can make the argument his winning mentality was shown by showing up out of shape hoping for the best, but all in all i don't think you should consider that out of form gt for this conversation.
That leaves:
-Vuelta 22 where he attacked on the first 2 mountain stages. Held fast in sierra nevada despite suffering from a crash, then attacked again in another mountainstage.
- Vuelta 23 cracked on Tourmalet but not before taking it to Roglic in an uphill sprint, and deciding to pace up a wall so that Visma could not use their numbers. Basically trying to be a 1 man deterrent for Visma team tactics. He then did not quit but showed resilience by taking stages and the polka dots.
-Tour 24 He came in not sure what to expect. still rode aggressively in the gravel stage and tried to attack Vingegaard for second place.
