Remco Evenepoel attacked Jonas Vingegaard on the climb to Superdévoluy, but the double champion relied on a return from his Belgian teammate in the final kilometers to limit the damage.

Jonas Vingegaard following Tour de France stage 17: “I thought Tadej would fill the hole on Remco”

A racing incident that made coach Sven Vanthourenhout laugh. On the night of arrival, colleagues from Vive le Vélo asked Tiesj Benoot regarding the VRT and he explained that following what happened in this step, the former cross-country cyclist joked in a WhatsApp group dedicated to the Olympics : “He sent us a message: ‘Congratulations on your great milestone'”

Benoit smiled and added: “Remko responded directly by saying there were two riders driving behind him. But I said I don’t drive hard.

Not enough to damage the team’s cohesion before the Olympics. For Benoit, it was not difficult to transition into teammate mode with the national team following the Tour de France: “The atmosphere in the Belgian team has always been good.
