Remco Evenepoel is coming
Looks like the bidding war between Sky and Quick Step was justified. Wins the European Junior Title by 10 minutes. Now wins both worlds junior TT and road race titles, and began celebrating the road title 3.5k from the line.

Think of how good he'll be when he finds out that it's legal to stand on a climb.

He crashed as well, and had to wait around while the team mechanic was changing the wheel of a teammate up the road

I think the kid only started cycling last year as well after leaving football...of course, quick step snagged him up for next year as he is Flemish...

And how dare him win the race on a non-aero wheel in the rear after the crash. He's breaking protocol.

Dude probably is just gifted and probably can do any sport, you cant find people like that often. Woods comes to mind aswell... whats the other one that did ski jumping?... this kid is tarting at early age, not like other ones. HIs future looks really bright. Hope he lives to the expectations.

Young age, hope he doesn’t get swepted up by the hype, BS and some director’s ‘program’...and then just says ‘fookit’...kids pretty smart these days.
