CyclingFriday, 27 January 2023 at 16:11
Intermarché - Circus - Wanty rider Kobe Goossens emerged as the winner of the Trofeo Andratx, building a lead in the final kilometres and securing his first victory of the season by leaving his opponent behind.
The peloton faced a series of unsuccessful breakaway attempts as the closely-knit group thwarted the riders' individual efforts. However, a strategic alliance among 42 riders, including Rui Costa and Julian Alaphilippe, ultimately enabled them to create a significant lead.
Kobe Goossens and Cian Uijtdebroeks pulled ahead and left the rest of the group behind. They extended their lead to more than 2 minutes within the last 10 kilometres of the race.
Kobe Goossens maintained his lead and successfully crossed the finish line to celebrate the first professional victory of his career. Pelayo Sánchez Mayo finished second. Lennert Van Eetvelt secured the bronze.

- He actually took a pay cut when transferred to Visma; he was the star at Jayco for years, he moved because a different team structure could improve his chances and they both got the benefits of the transaction. Money would have been more important if he was a rising talent, not an established one on his way out.mhfrvz11-01-2026
- I take him for his word and the beautiful letter of retirement he penned.Good health and family life as well.Chapeau! God speed straight on till morning.
Brucegel10-01-2026 - If there is something, knowing cycling it will only come out in a decade. Another oddity is the money angle. Had he wanted to, he could probably have arranged to earn more in the next 2 years than he did in the past.Mistermaumau10-01-2026
- And yet, so many who get money get worried about it so obviously it’s not easy for everyone.Mistermaumau10-01-2026
- Maybe Simon's close bond with his brother made his position untenable, for instance if Visma were planning an unwelcome surprise for UAE.Hills3310-01-2026
- You forgot the tax angle which says quite a lot about people who are already well set up. And he’s got rid of the money hasn’t he, or rather invested it long-term for his family, people who like money spend differently.Mistermaumau10-01-2026

Front24210-01-2026 - Knowing even less about Jonas than they do about Tadej, journalists seem determined to emphasise the differences between them. They all pepper their articles about Jonas with the words family, quiet and candid. Then they have to make Tadej sound the opposite. If Tadej started a family they would be confused.Hills3310-01-2026
