Lotto Dstny for Vuelta a Espana | Thomas de Gendt's final Grand Tour; Lennert van Eetvelt GC wildcard and Victor Campenaerts searches another win
CyclingMonday, 12 August 2024 at 15:09
Lotto Dstny have also confirmed their lineup for the Vuelta a España this Monday afternoon, a lineup that will focus on stage wins but may provide surprises. Arnaud De Lie and Maxim van Gils are absent but in the lineup of the Belgian team are Victor Campenaerts, Lennert van Eetvelt and Thomas de Gendt.
Thomas de Gendt, at age 37, will tackle his 25th and final Grand Tour. The Belgian veteran has put in a big deal of importance on this very race this season and will be on the hunt for a stage win in one of the many hilly days throughout the race, as a breakaway specialist. Victor Campenaerts, stage winner at the Tour de France as well, will also be hunting for wins on the same type of stages.
Lennert van Eetvelt comes as perhaps the one team leader. The youngster is one of the team's bright rising talents and has won the UAE Tour earlier this year. He has a lot of potential and made his Grand Tour debut here last year. He may aim for the overall classification and test himself, if so he could definitely be one of the biggest wildcards.
The team features Andreas Kron who can be an interesting option for the hilly days and some uphill finales, whilst the lineup will greatly focus on breakaways and is concluded by Argentinian climber Eduardo Sepúlveda, Jonas Gregaard and Belgian duo Sylvain Moniquet and Arjen Livyns.

- i don’t know nearly as much about bruyneel or hincapie as most of us do about lance, but we judge people by the company they keep. i hand no idea what psychological problems the other two have, but there’s gotta be something pretty severely wrong with them if they continue to choose to be close to armstrong.OCexile26-12-2024
- Ayuso and Rodriguez are only 22 and 23. Don't pressure it as they're still so sooo young.
James2631826-12-2024 - Not sure that can be true, in that USA Cycling is part of the UCI.acem8226-12-2024
- Oh, and yes: I am no psychiatrist/psychologist, but Bruyneel and Texas Turd are both sociopaths. It goes well beyond "protect my world and anyone would" that is the usual zeitgeist of their bullshit. No normal person has Bob Roll go at Greg Lemond with an audio recording device at Ron Keifel's bike shop...for example.EricJensenRidesBikes26-12-2024
- Funnier: this website keeps giving credo to their ramblings. In this case, why in any possible way would Boonen want to create a fantasy world to attach himself to these two clowns when more likely he would want to forget he was even there? Laughable.EricJensenRidesBikes26-12-2024
- A sociopath is an informal term used to describe someone with antisocial personality disorder (ASPD), a mental health condition characterized by a chronic pattern of disregard for social norms, laws, and the rights and feelings of others.EricJensenRidesBikes26-12-2024
- Rowe spent his whole career on one team being nothing more than a thug for Skyneos. I have no idea why another team would want import this type of person into their program.Sweep26-12-2024

- yeah, that’s a more fair assessment. “reaching mathieu’s level” doesn’t mean you’re planning to replicate his whole career. the former IS doable, potentially. it’s just the latter that likely is not.OCexile25-12-2024
- That’s not entirely true. Every person follows their own development path and peaks differently. Remco and Primoz had hardly started cycling before elite level. Jonas was pretty much under the radzr until he unexpectedly had to take over responsibility at JV. Some guys only get real good in their thirties others have peaked mid-twenties. You can’t tell in advance how and upto what level they will progress, obviously his career might not have MVDPs length but nothing says he could not end up doing a few seasons at his level.Mistermaumau25-12-2024
