Evenepoel’s stratospheric victory in Montreal to win his fourth consecutive world title against the clock
Without rival. Just like the Swiss did Marlen Reusser first of all, Remco Evenepoel (26 years old) has fulfilled the predictions and has achieved an incontestable, insulting victory in the time trial masculine of Cycling World Championshipwhich started filming today in Montreal (Canada). The corridor of Red Bull-Bora-hansgrohe He has not given his rivals any options and has achieved what no one had achieved in the 32 previous editions of a World Cup time trial, winning four titles in a row.
Remco He went to the appointment with the story more motivated than ever. Ahead, 39.2 kilometers that perfectly suited his characteristics and in which he has not allowed even the slightest desire for hope to his rivals. Evenepoel He is the best and is light years ahead in the fight against the clock and today he once again gave a good example of this.
Winner of the four CRIs he had previously played this season (Valencia, UAE Tour and the Tour de France), Remco has given a recital on how a cyclist has to behave and adapt to the time trial bike. Watching him take the curves at full speed was a joy, and not even a problem with the chain has diminished his performance one bit.

In fact, his superiority has gone from less to more: 9 seconds in the first section (km 10), 34 in the second (km 21), 48 in the third (km 29) and 57 at the finish line, hanging a gold around his neck at a speed of 52.4 km/h. Today’s is the second biggest difference that the Belgian has achieved in a World Cup ITT behind last year’s 1’14” compared to Jay Vine.
The money has gone to a ‘Pippo’ Ganna (30 years old) to whom Evenepoel has morale and bronze food for a superb Paul Seixas (19 years old)which has once again amazed the world; both benefiting from the fall of the Swede Jakob Söderqvist, who had the third fastest time in the third timing. The best Spanish has been the pucelano Ivan Romeo (15th)2’13” from Evenepoel.
Now, after securing gold in the time trial, Evenepoel is already thinking about next Sunday’s road test, in which they will not even be Pogacar, nor Vingegaard, nor Carapaz; and in which he will try to achieve another historic double as he already did in the Paris 2024 Olympic Games: win gold on the road and in the time trial in the same edition. Will he make it?
