- Great champion Remco but his profile is more suitable for Ardennes-like races and tour with no very hard climbs. Not only Tadej and Vingegaard, there are a lot of younger cyclists (del Toro, Ayuso, maybe Seixas, Nordhagen and others) that will soon be big GC boys.

- Remco is not the natural climber that riders like Tadej or Jonas are, no matter how much he trains and prepares for it. Yes, you can TT your way up moderately steep hills, but when the gradient gets super steep, he just can't keep up.

- “I was portrayed as the devil" Bruyneel was really a talented team manager. His minor flaws: "coordinated, well-funded, and sophisticated doping regime" "hand-in-hand in implementing the team-wide doping programme" "was involved in trafficking and administering prohibited substances and methods, including EPO, blood transfusions, testosterone, human growth hormone, and cortisone. Teammates testified that nothing significant happened without Bruyneel's knowledge and approval." "fostered an environment where doping was considered a "fact of life" and necessary for success, effectively making it a condition of survival on the team. He also participated in or assisted with the cover-up of positive tests and doping violations." Those quotes show Bruyneel's true talent.Cyclingnut18-02-2026
