Tomorrow it's time for the Belgians to shine in the junior ITT. Remco Evenepoel's big moment, after completely and utterly destroying the juniors all year long with his eyes closed, this should be in the bag   (which he seems to be very much aware of because he's still a teenager and already coming across like an arrogant Mr Big Star)

You are hyping him for a whole year or so, and yet expecting him to be humble or something?

I'm hyping him because he quite often wins by just riding away from everyone and going on a 100+ kilometer solo minutes in front of the rest  

 

And yes, one doesn't have to act like a 10-time Grand Tour winner yet when that happens in junior races  

 

I mean, he almost verbally abused his teammates after a TTT they didn't win and where he basically dropped the entire team on a climb. It's fun when you are that good, but in a team time trial, the whole team thing is not unimportant.

Evenepoel

 

Did they accidentally put him in the category with 12 year olds?

So apparently Evenepoel is a football school dropout.
