A pro since the summer of 2020, Mauri Vansevenant proved himself in stage races on a number of occasions since then, taking a total of six top-ten placings. The most impressive of these came at the beginning of this season, when he powered to victory on the steep slopes of the famous Green Mountain en route to a solid runner-up spot at the Tour of Oman.
"Signing for three more years is a sign of the trust the team has in me. I have been able to develop myself really well in this amazing squad and I hope to keep on doing that. My goals for the future are simple: I want to keep growing, keep working and keep performing."
"I have some beautiful memories from these previous years and rode some nice races, such as Monuments and Grand Tours, and this has helped me develop. The vibe in the team is fantastic, which means a lot, because it makes me happy being in this environment," said Mauri.
Patrick Lefevere, CEO of Soudal Quick-Step, is equally happy to see Mauri stay: "In the three years with the team, Mauri has grown a lot. He has delivered some beautiful victories, but he impressed also with the effort he put in for the team whenever needed. Mauri is always working hard, his style on the bike being one of his most known features. We are delighted that he will stay with us for the next three years."

- Where Merckx just rode every single race he could and won all the time, Hinault won less often (percentage wise) because he was more judicious in what he raced. His palmares are nuts. He had amazing rivals, one to start his career and another to end it in the grand tours. His classics were solid. What sets him apart from Merckx and Pogačar are that he basically dabbled in the classics while the other two love(d) them. I used to compare Pogačar to Hinault for his grand tour record and occasional classics win, until I realized that the comparison was wrong. Pogačar loves the classics - ah, the memory of his reaction to finishing fourth in a 2 person sprint in Flanders in ‘22: utter domination in any one day race since then, even when he doesn’t win. Hinault lived for the grand tours and I don’t think anyone else will ever reach his record. 10 wins in 13 attempts? Good lord. An amazing rider. Wish there was more footage to watch.RidesHills11-11-2026
- I had no idea about that either.
santiagobenites10-11-2026 - great analysis thanks! appreciate you posting this. I didn't realize CX had a different standard for deviation. this is even more egregious it seems.mij10-11-2026
- As he isn't currently with Red Bull, I guess if he want to race for one more year he needs to find a team. He's 37 so this will be his last year I would guess, unless he wants to race for almost nothing like Froome did.awp10-11-2026
- I think some are making much ado about nothing. Even though Jonas is getting older, before his crash in the Tour, he looked like a solid 2nd all the way home. No one can really climb with Tadej until this year, Eric Mas showed himself which I think was a one off year for him and Paul Seixas has been able to be pretty close to him. Whatever stage race Jonas enters as long as Tadej is not there he is a favorite to win.awp10-11-2026
- Giro or not Giro, he won't win the Tour!MajorPayne10-11-2026
- Very true.awp10-11-2026
- Ciccone had a very strong end of season. Consistently attacking and livening up races. Hope he makes that last leap in progress and starts notching some significant wins. Great rider to watch.Occam10-11-2026
