Question The Tour 2025 without the mutants: who would win?

[Red Rick]

Speaking of, kind of wild that Simon Yates’ GT record > Remco’s

It's really not.

It's really not.

Yates’ GT wins are 50% higher. How would you compare the amount of GT conversation / hype surrounding the two of them?

It's mostly about the amount of time they've been around, the amount of serious GT attempts they've done, and the era in which they hit their prime.

Evenepoel is ofcourse better than Yates, but he's only been better for 3 years, and in 3 years 1 GT win is not an outrageously low strike rate for the 4th best GT rider of given period.

Not at the same age.
Remco is stll very young. He's got time on his side.
