Vingegaard, Pogacar, Roglic at Bora-Hansgrohe, the competition will be tough on the 2024 Tour for Evenepoel. The Belgian from Soudal-Quick-Step, who will compete in the Grande Boucle for the first time this year, prefers to advance masked: “It’s up to me to try to put myself next to these giants. The dream and the objective is to try to fight as long as possible with them,” he told AFP.
But the “little cannibal” knows his potential, and can’t help but dream: “If I wear the Yellow Jersey, I would also have worn the three leaders’ jerseys on the three Grand Tours, even if it means winning this swimsuit one day I want.” To dress in yellow, Remco Evenepoel already has a cross on his calendar: “The first stage is beautiful, why not win it to take the jersey.”
For a Tour that he views above all as an apprenticeship, the winner of the 2022 Tour of Spain will still have great objectives. A podium? “It’s possible” he assures. And this year, the Belgian will eat, ride, and sleep Tour de France: “The Tour will be above everything. […]. For the past few weeks, we’ve been doing everything according to the Tour, we’re preparing for that.”
