Teams & Riders The Remco Evenepoel is the next Eddy Merckx thread

[Monsi]

If the single ITT is closer to 60 km (could easily get it to that length by including a loop at the start or finish), has Vingo ever done a very long ITT?

Remco has won 2 WCTTs on very long ITTs (23, 24)

According to PCS, the longest TT Jonas has ridden was a 40.7 km ITT in stage 20 of the 2022 TDF, where he should've won but he elected to gift it to Wout by slowing down in the final kilometer to savor his first Tour win.

Realistically, I think if Jonas and Remco rides the Giro and let's say, there's a 60 km ITT (which we can only dream of but we know it's not gonna happen) on the menu, I think Remco gains 1 minute to 1 minute and a half, if both are on a good day.

Hard to say, much depends on how fresh Remco and Jonas come into this. But a minute seems about right.
Two minutes if this was a TT only race.

Remco takes >3 min on pog over 40-50 in a itt standalone race. At 60 km, it would be ugly. And vingo can do a worse tt than pog.

2 min would be remco on a bad day

I agree. Flat ITT of an hour in a standalone event, I wouldn't expect Jonas to be under 3 minutes
