Why Remco Evenepoel is DOMINATING Cycling
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 чер 2024
- Remco Evenepoel is one of the best cyclists right now if not the BEST cyclist in the professional peloton. He won two stages in the Giro d'Italia 2023 and looked like he was the man to beat. World Champion, Vuelta a Espana winner & back to back Liege Bastogne Liegne champion. What can't Remco Evenepoel do?
In this video we go over his exciting career so far, from playing football at RC Anderlecht to becoming the beast he is today for Quickstep.
We talk about his controversy in Il Lombardia, his potential to win any future Tour de France with Tadej Pogacar in it and much more.

Btw he didnt win Catalunya. Roglic did.
😂 true
Let fan boys be fan boys.
cause roglic was wheelsucking
@@louisschmitz8346 great tactics and bad mountain stage by Remco
@@louisschmitz8346 ahhh first time to watch a race?
Remco won Volta Catalunya 2023 ???? Are you sure about that, or did he finish in second place behind Rolgic.
Excelent video despite any inaccuracies. The audio flaw at the end ruins it a bit but still great video. Thanks
Glad someone else mentioned this
"Can he win the 2023 Giro?" - Let's call that one highly unlikely
lmao
Extremely unlikely
He's dominating his fanboys, which are legion.
He is definitely one of the strongest riders, but it takes a lot more than just pure power to be dominate. He is not there jet, but he definitely can be.
I hope we will see this guy versus Pogacar and Vingegaard in 2024's tour de france, would be a sick a year.
Cant wait! Imagine…. Three super talents in one Grand Tour.
he wouldn't stand a chance unless it's heavily focused on time trial and has not too many climbs above 2,000m altitude.
How can you call Pogacar and Vingegaard ‘talents’ when they have both already won the tour twice??
@@crisdusstill no world champs
2024 won't be his year, 2025 and onward will
I have nothing against Remco but i still think Pogacar is way clear
We need a proper showdown in the Tour de France between them
@@TrueSportsLore that would be amazing, does look like we have to wait atleast another year for that
@@dnmem4537 I would say many years. Pogacar vs Vingegard will be a long battle. Not just a battle between them, but between teams. Remco doesn´t have a team.
@@TrueSportsLore In that case, wait until that showdown happens before you post this video and say that Remco is "dominating" cycling. I don't know what cycling you watch to say that he is dominating.
@@claudiocheuquen9562rumour has it he will go to Ineos, that would make a hell of a battle, probably already next year
Dominating he says... He first needs to win (or even compete) against big guns (Pogačar, Vingegard, WvA, MVdP), then we can start talking about domination.
WC?
@@jamesfarquharson9418 One race where he won with by far the best team. If that's dominating I'm King of Babylon.
Come on, he's a class above WvA and MVdP. Yes, they're great, but Remco already has them beat in professional wins at the age of 23.
@@SteveDB1992 mvdp and wva have been on top of their sport (cyclocross) since they were 18. They entered the classic scenes and dominated as well against the big guys. Remco hasnt done that. In both LBL he only faced once wva and no more top classic guys beside pidcock. Even in gc he hasnt gone to the tour yet. So I agree with you, remco and wva and mvdp are not on the same tier because remco hasnt proved himself in big races.
@@SteveDB1992 lol
To he honest. Marketing around Remco is dominating cycling. He still have to prove his market value, but right now is only huge baloon.
World Champ and bac to back Liege Bastogne Liege is a freaaaaaaaaaking baloon 🙂
@@sylvainbernard4089 He won World champ because he got into a 60 rider breakaway and by the time people realised it was too late. He just had to drop Fulgsang to win World Champ lol. Remco never dropped a top tier rider ever. He never dropped a vingegaard, a pogacar, a VDP, a Van Aert off his wheel.
@@LsShrp mmmh last year in LBL Van Aert was there. I agree that the marketing is insane and I also thing it's not good for him. But still, his palmares his already very very good...
@@sylvainbernard4089 Yeah this is the only time he had to compete against a top 5 rider. A Van Aert in LBL, after a cyclo cross season Van Aert did all the classics of mars and april, while remco only did LBL. Impressive palmares but against zero opposition
Definitely not dominating!!! Tadaj P is DOMINATING!!!
Wait for de tour de france, to be sure.
Vingegaard 2022
Nah its Primoz R
Hi can’t wait for the Roglic I think he is gonna win this years Giro
It'll be a good race. G has also been looking good
@@TrueSportsLore Yeahh that’s true but I think Roglic has that power pull Puch that might drop G and let’s not forget almeida
Fantastic videos in your channel! Please keep going!
Thank you!
I definitely think hes a beast a top 6 rider in the world. Its just that when he has won the main big boys haven't been there especially in the stage races. The one time we saw him race against the big dawgs Roglic tactically beat him without an all out attack. I'll crown him as the #1 rider when he starts beating them or at least goes back and fourth.
I think you forgot the Vuelta where he literally dropped world class riders (including Roglic) in the rain.
During this Giro were he smoked everyone during the first time trial.
Classica San Sebastian where he dropped Yates who won all his prior races.
Liege Bastogne Liege last year AND this year.
Honestly there's no better rider than him. He'll drop Pogacar in RVV, I'm sure of that.
Have you been watching the giro 😂
@@LoranMaes Putting only 40 seconds into Tao Geoghegan Hart, not exactly a renowned TTer is not exactly blowing everyone out of water. Thomas committed a pacing error and was also evidently out of form at the beginning of the Giro. While something obviously happened to Roglic’s TT this year (his shoulder surgery).
He put sometime into a Roglic that is out of form follow his TDF injury last Vuelta. Good for him. By the time Roglic crashed out, he was already fading against Roglic.
Remco is a massive one day talent for sure. But he is more WVA than Pog. His GT credentials are unproven as of now. I suspect he may have a recovery issue. I don’t know how he would perform in a late GT ITT.
Overhyping him would not do him any good.
@@suisinghoraceho2403 Tao's ITT's this Giro have been outstanding, definitely improved on this. Like he is riding the same level as Küng and Thomas, both good TT riders. Remco also put 15" into Ganna on 17km flat in that first ITT, that is not a little bit. His speed also was really high, thus it wasn't just others underprerforming.
I created a small excell sheet to compare ITT performances and based on that this first Giro ITT was Remco's 2nd best ITT performance, only slightly behind the 2021 giro opening ITT, though considering this is a best performance for several other riders, that one had likely a lot better conditions.
Ganna according to this comparison did his 4th best ITT in this 2023 first giro ITT. Ganna went faster than Remco's first ITT only 5 times in his career, all significantly easier stages (shorter + less vertical meters).
*By the time Roglic crashed out, he was already fading against Roglic.*
Roglic pushed better numbers last vuelta only once: 2 days after Remco crashed and could push on the pedals. Roglic didn't push significantly better that day, Remco just pushed quite some lower numbers compared to rest of that vuelta.
*I suspect he may have a recovery issue. I don’t know how he would perform in a late GT ITT.*
You say about the person who finished 3rd and 1st in WC the other side of the world 1 and 2 weeks after finishing and winning his first real GT.
Ofcourse maybe there is a recovery problem, but so far nothing has proven that this would be the case.
@@MDP1702 Remco obviously was impressive last year in Spain. But c'mon I just want to see that show of force against the other BIG rivals over 3 weeks. My whole thing was about Grand tours. Phenomenal 1 day racer. His power seems unmatched. But then again like this year he wins Liege and Pog crash happens early. I don't wanna sound like a hater I'm just not ready to crown him best in the world tour like a lot of people seem to be doing.
And also his TT is just insane. When was the last GC contender this strong at that? I can't think of anybody as of late than is head shoulders better than pretty much everybody? Armstrong in his era? I can't remember what he was compared to the specialist of that time.
Remco is not dominating He is incredible, but not dominating. Curentlz Pogačar is dominating.
None of them
Vingegaard and Pogacar are dominating. Their duels are becoming legend.
@@Sakkura1lol what. Vingegaard is not even close to pogačar. Jumbo won the tour, not vingegaard. He will get destroyed this year
@@funkerman7 Vingegaard singlehandedly dropped Pogacar on Mont Ventoux in 2021. He's a better climber on long, difficult climbs.
On the individual time trials last year, Vingegaard and Pogacar had the same time overall, but that's with Vingegaard deliberately slowing on the descent of the final time trial.
@@Sakkura1 please stop embarassing yourself LMAO
Great video!❤
Thank you so much! Who would you like to see next?
Amazing video! I actually forgot how long Remco is already a pro and he is still only 23! Mad!
Thank you Brian, means a lot to us
@@TrueSportsLore if only he didn't have that crash in Lombardia. I kind of have that Darth Vader/anakin Skywalker feeling about it, as if he did lose some of his incredible ability that day. Not that he isn't strong today though.
The fact he's even back after that horror crash is incredible. Love his exciting way to race, hopefully it continues for many more years
@@TrueSportsLore true things could have been worse quite easily
Remco didn’t win Catalunya, Roglic did.
Sorry for that mistake! Thank you for recently subscribing
One of the reasons cycle racing is so interesting to follow is that no one is dominant. On any day, any top-tier rider can beat another. Weather, course layout, team tactics etc. all play a role. If one rider were truly dominating all others, in all circumstances, it wouldn't be worth watching.
While that's true. We've seen in recent times how it's often between one or two riders at the top. Contador vs Froome. MvDP vs WvA. Roglic vs Pogacar. It feels like whenever Remco enters a race he doesn't have an equal (partially due to the fact he never races against Pogacar)
@@TrueSportsLore He never races against any other of the top riders. No Pog, no Vingegard, no WVA, no MVDP, only sometimes Roglic, though unfortunately COVID prevented the first test against a really fit Roglic. You can also see WVA dominate everyone else very regularly, just like Remco does, but when he comes up against MVDP and Pog he all of a sudden looks very beatable.
I am not saying Remco cannot beat these guys, but if he would race against them all the time he would not look dominant. But through some of his choices and a lot of coincidences he has actually never raced any of them at their bes, all of his very impressive wins have come against opposition that they other guys at their best beat comfortably as well.
He basically have not raced against the bests. And don't forget Vingengaard so....
Was hoping for this one
I have no sound in the last Chapter
It makes you wonder how many other elite team sports athletes would make great cyclists.
Messi the mountain goat
sound drops away at the end of the video, nice video about my fellow country man
Thank you, sadly it's been copyright claimed which is why the sound is gone
Sound goes off around 12 minutes for me
A more appropriate thumbnail “Can Remco dominate cycling?
Hey, Great Channel! But
How has the UA-cam channel TrueSportsLore dealt with copyright issues regarding the use of footage from other creators?
great video, but did you know there is some audio missing towards the end?
Thank you, yes unfortunately UA-cam has muted that bit due to copyright issue 🥺
It is tru, Remco just dominated all youth chategories, he have what only 1 in a million boys have ! A extreme good muscle structure ... But remember there is also a pogacar who is a extreme good talent like Remco. For me pogacar is the number 1 of the world in big tours. We can never tell who is the best ! they both born winners
Appreciate the effort to put this together, learned about his youth career! But you MUST watch the video/audio before you post. Minutes of missing audio near the end.
Think it's due to a copyright claim. Someone's claimed that section as protected audio sadly
@@TrueSportsLore ah, ok. Weird UA-cam would just silence portions like that, but I guess it's better than freezing the video. Looking forward to showcases on other cyclists!
Given some of the movies on this channel, im starting to believe the creator is Belgian :) But Remco is a beast for sure, and despite what some people write, seems a pretty chilled out and nice guy too.
Yes he is Belgium😂
Audio cuts out at 12:00
Where do you get these portraits that don’t look anything like the rider?
Dominating... An world championship without the main competition. A grand tour where the main competitor crashed out. What a domination eh
and on top of that purposely avoiding Pogacar and Vingegaard by not riding the Tour. If you are a grand tour rider you cant dominate cycling if you dont ride the Tour de France. also 3 grand tours tried so far and only 1 finished (where the number 1 contender crashed out).
There is only 1 rider who sticks out above the crowd and thats Pogacar (and im not a Pogacar fanboy, MvdP fanboy here!)
So easy these comments 😂
He's one of the greatest, one of.
That's a great achievement, no matter what.
The comments could very well also apply to the others ;)
@@joowsty he is 23 come on. He isn't going to the TDF because he wants some experience first. Quick-Step has never been a team for grand tours and the fact that Remco brought them their first grand tour win is genuinely a great achievement. Also nice to neglect he won L-B-L twice now. Furthermore becoming world champion and bronze in time trial is a great achievement, what are you saying?
@@3scrs334 im saying he isnt dominating cycling, for sure he had super nice achievements, specially for his age. But we are talking about someone dominating cycling, yet he doesn't ride the Tour, the biggest race of them all, how can you dominate cycling when you avoid that race. On top of that all of the pre season he only did LBL of all the spring classics. If he doesn't become world champ again the rider dominating cycling only has to win LBL to be called that, while at the same time there are riders who won the Tour, Giro or Vuelta, or ppl who won multiple big one day races this year?
So i dont mean he isnt good, hé is just not the best.
There was one race (one week race) where he fought till the end against Roglic (whom we cannot say he's dominating cycling) and... Remco lost. What a domination.
Road cycling..maybe. Pidcock, MvdP & van Aert are dominating cycling
Somehow audio is broken from @11:52 till the end @TrueSportsLore
Got copyright claimed :(
Next one pls Pantani, love the channel
Thank you! Next one is Roglic, Pantani this year!
Yea maybe he can beat pog at the tdf but will he be able to out climb vingegaard on the highest mountains?
Anyone else lose all audio at 11:50?
Annoyingly it's been copyright claimed so its been muted 🥺
0:45 at the age of... five? that kid sure grows fast
lets be real here, he only won Vuelta because Roglič crashed
Lol, Roglic was already way behind Evenepoel before he crashed himself out.
i think the audio is bugged near the end
Roglič and Pogačar are dominating, but he is getting better...
Vinge?
@@larshansen4557 also great, so Remco has a difficult task to do... but for us will be great :)
Could you do a video on Egan Bernal? Or just on Colombian cyclists? Keep up the good work!
Quintana or Bernal videos will happen this year. So many to work through! Roglic next up
@@TrueSportsLore yessss! I was going to ask you to do a Roglic video 😍
True Sports Lore is very, very good.
Thank you
Why is James Willems of funhaus in the thumbnail?
remco goes to the vuelta!!!!
pogacar dominates cycling even more
Why is Remco so dominant? It's obvious. Because with so much on the line (he is a professional rider after all, this is his life), he always masks up in crowded places, thus allowing him to stay healthy and DOMINATE! Well done, Remco!
How's the Giro going? I keep forgetting to check it out.
He got covid and dropped out
@@arenthus LOL!
Lol, hilarious take 🤣🤣🤣!
Sound is gone from 11:54 till somewhere in the 13:00 mark.
Sound cuts outt at 11:54
Do Wout Van Aert next
Remco needs to beat Van Aert, Van der Poel and Pogacar in order to qualify as the #1
He has done so a few times:
Pogacar at WC, San Sebastian twice.Overall if you count GC races (ie. TA '22 here) as one race, Pogacar finished ahead of Remco 6/15 times (2 of which was Remco as domestique for someone else), though obviously also some bad circumstance for Pogacar when Remco finished in front of him (LBL wrist, last CSS after hard tour, ...).
Against VdP Remco finished before him 3 times out of 6, both having 2 DNF's in those 6 races (VDP last WC and Nokere koerse, Remco WC '19 as domestique and Lombardia '20 with his crash).
VA has generally been better than him in their clashes, only 2 of 9 times did Remco finish in front of him (twice Remco won that race). Though it has to be said that the majority of these races were also in VA's favour (kind of races + Remco's first year and his '20 post crash return and 1 time as VA's domestique). The 2 clashes (and wins) were in the last +- year (LBL and WC as teammate).
That thumbnail looks like Charles Leclerc
Where is volume at 12:00?
Copyright claim has removed it sadly
Good work, Remco did not win Catalunya also UAE teams has way more good domestiques than Soudal Quickstep in my opinion. As a Belgian I, of course, will cheer for Remco when he faces Pogi. But I love the two of them =)

Since when is Remco dominating?
Remco "dominate" the Vuelta 2023! As a defending champion he gave up too easy on the first really hard mountain stage! Hard to believe that he will out climb the GC favorites in the TDF 2024..
Vingegaard next???!!!!
Roglic up first but our team is half Danish so he's definitely one we'll cover around Tour de France time!
There is one who is dominating and his name is pogacar.
Remco has to show a little bit more
He lost 2 year in tdf
He is the only clean rider at the top. ;)
The answer to the headline is that he does not dominate. Maybe he'll reach the top 3 some day.
whats up with the sound
Copyright removed sadly
remco is no joke haha
He'd be dominating if he'd win every grand tour . He's one of the best but not completely dominating. But that wouldn't make as great of a title
This kid is way to hyped up by the media. What has he done in the big races??? He is doped to the gills.
Is he? :)
Because of good karma but bad is waiting😎
HE is not looking to hot know, got cracked on the mountain yesterday in the Tour de Suisse,
Is he really dominating though?
We believe so, but from the poll on our community page its clear there's doubts. We hope the video can still stand on it's own merits of how strong and incredible talented Remco is
Not sure how he is dominating cycling.
That's a fair question. World Champion, 2x Liege Bastogne Liege winner, Vuelta Champion and much more at just 23 years old. You could make arguments but to us those results are absurd
@@TrueSportsLore Pogačar is dominating cycling and MVDP.
Remco belongs in that conversation too and arguably so does WvA. It's a great time for cycling
@@TrueSportsLore he has barely won major world tour stage races, all the races you mention in which he did win he did so against a weak field, when he does win a major stage races he never has any dominant stage wins, just barely edging out oponents or even not winning a single stage (UAE Tour this year). He has potential but right now his palmares are insignificant compared to Pogacar's. Even Vingegaard, with MUCH worse palmares than Evenepoel, has won a Tour de France in convincing and dominant fashion.
@@sanastela MVDP dominates "cobble" spring classics (I include MSR in that list), but he generally doesn't dominate outside that niche vs the other big cyclists. I definitely would put Remco above him, he is among the top 3 in ITT, GC and top 3 favorite in almost all one days he starts.
i am gonna make it easy. in the last three years there are 6 riders who are outstanding. pog, wva,mvdp,remco, roglic and pidcock. pog is def the best. no argument needed. wva and mvdp are on the same level. some years mdvp is better other years wva. i do think wva is better all round on the road. vingegaard last year the best gc rider but that was only last year and he is only at his best in the tour. remco, pog and roglic all year on high level. remco has achieved a lot by his age and is def upcoming. roglic is always a threat to anyone. most allround in all cycling disiplines is pidcock imo.
come at me.😂
Pogacar's teammates are way better then Remco's, already seen it in the giro
I wonder how juiced he is? Maybe that's why he got sick? It's worth asking.
HUH? In what parallel world are you living? He is one of the great ones right now, but not exactly dominating. Roglic and Pogacar are dominating. Sheesh.
wait, how is he better than pogi?
To say he is dominating cycling is a big stretch. He is one of the top guys, but Pogacar is way way clear of him and some others as well.
way clear ? go bs somewhere else
Same way UAE and Jumbo are dominating. It is a flashback to 2008 Giro & tdf days. 💉💉💊💊
Because the pot belge is the best !
The cycling elite nations think success in the Tour de France for a Belgian is over due,so IT'S PLANNED THAT REMCO MUST WIN,OR A LEAST ANOTHER BELGIAN,BUISNESS, BUISNESS,BUISNESS,THERES A FORTUNE TO BE MADE IN BELGUIM IF ,AT A BELGIAN WINS THE TOUR!!!
If a BELGIAN WINS A TOUR DE FRANCE, THE ELITE MANIPULATERS WILL BE BILLIONS IN POCKET,ALL MAJOR SPORTING EVENTS ARE FIXED.
becoz' of uci
Is he dominating? Don't think so but ok
Very nice report but i think its a bit disloyal not to call him.the Belgian chun. 😔
is he though?
I would imagine he travels to Spain for therapy. Just like team Jumbo's riders.
Don't forget remco was beateen by biniam ghirmay at uci
Noone is dominating, not even Mr Needle Pogacar. Several riders are at the top on different terrain, of which Evenpoel is one.
We from belgium would like to see Remco riding the big tour, there is not enough time to prepare himself. So Remco will not join the tour of 2023 ...
thats really a bad excuse, he is already recovered from his Covid a few days ago so there is time enough to do another altitude training camp, on top of that he prepared for the Giro, which he only ride for 7 days, so that preparation can carry over to the tour as well. Pogacar is the one who has less time to prepare with his injuries. I really think its a sign of weakness he doesnt ride the tour. That would make this year a really bad year, only riding like 10-15 days. If he doesnt becoem world champion its a failed season for sure, specially when ppl apparently call him the rider who dominates cycling.
@@joowsty no no to ride the giro, remco worked 3 months on preparation. dont understand me wrong!! I would like Remco to ride the tour. He could ride the tour with less pressure on his mind; But he is a winners type . Its tru of what they said, all youth cathegories he always ended allone on the finisch on first place with riders of his age. We belgians had hoped he would ride the big tour. But he is NOT the best of the world. Pogacar is the verry best of all... annyway thanks for youre reaction ;-)
@@peterderidder9922 i didnt mean you made a bad excuse but i think he did (tho i think it mainly was Lefevre who decided this). I know he won all his youth races, sometimes even minutes ahead of 2nd place.
I just think he (again i mean Lefevre) are to careful with him, eventho he is very young. What i mean with tht is you never know what will happen in the future, it could be this year will be Pogacar weakest year in the Tour de France (cuz of his injury) for years to come, or maybe Vingegaard will improve lots more. Even a new cycling talent can rise the next years who is again a level above the rest. So you never know, maybe looking back in like 10 years he will conclude this year would have been his best year to win the Tour.
Ofcourse it could also be Evenepoel grows more then his competitors and he will be winning many Tour de Frances with ease, but you cant know what happens in the future. It could also be he will be like Damiano Cunego, who was great in Grand Tours early on but after a few years he never could repeat that again. Tho i dont expect this with Evenepoel.
@@joowsty FYI Remco currently has quite some more race days this year than Pogacar, Vingegaard, VA and VDP so far.
I do think he should ride the tour, but I also can understand why he wouldn't.
Are you seriously saying that doping in cycling is a "conspiracy" theory? And did you really call Julian "Hoolian"?
That they took something illegal from Remco after that Lombardy crash was a conspiracy theory, not doping in general cycling
@@MDP1702 based on history of cycling as a sport being sceptical about anything that even remotely looks dodgy should be considered normal, not a "conspiracy" theory.
@@channul4887 There is quite some difference between sceptical and conspiracy. It makes perfect sense to take away something that would otherwise pinch Remco in the back during his way out of the canyon and to the hospital.
And even after the UCI cleared him, some people kept doubting the truth.
@@MDP1702 the main problem with apologists and gullible zombies is that anything that disturbs their subjective vision of reality is a conspiracy. But hey, UCI cleared their mates because they said it wasn't anything illegal and they only wanted to remove items which could pinch Remco in his back 🤣 My guy, I have a bridge I'd like to sell you.
@@channul4887 You are the literal example of a conspiracy theorist 🤣
The number 1 is pogacar, he destroys roglic everytime, if evenepoel couldnt beat roglic on catalunya, pogacar is much more harder to beat. It was shame for evenepoel the lombardia crash, that really slows his progress, if he didnt crashed today he could be on pogacar level.
And jv destroyed pogacar twice in tdf
Remco is NOT dominating cycling !!!! Pogacar is dominating cycling !!! Remco is my countrymen ! he is a absolute big natural talent . In al youth cathegories he ended every race allone . No riders of his age could match him. Also international races in his age cathegory he ended alsways first. For sure this moment Pogacar is the best of the world second probably Remco ...
for me you have to make distinction between one day racing and grand tour racing. in grand tour racing for me Remco is tied for 3rd place with Roglic, but below Vingegaard and Pogacar (the tour is so much bigger and harder then the other 2 grand tours and its not for nothing Remco doesnt ride the tour, its because he thinks he cant compete with those 2). In one day racing i would say Remco is 3-5th in the world, for sure behind Pogacar and Van der Poel and maybe even behind van Aert. But if you combine the 2 disciplines then Remco probably would be number 2 behind Pogacar, but its hard to compare.
Why is he dominating?
Because he feels like it.
Decent PED's!
