Mauri Vansevenant out for six weeks and spring classics following knee injury
CyclingTuesday, 21 March 2023 at 01:00
Soudal-Quick Step is having a great season, but that doesn't mean their riders are immune to health problems. The Belgian team has announced that Mauri Vansevenant will have to undergo surgery and will be unable to ride for a period of time.
Vansevenant has been diagnosed with knee syndrome and is scheduled for surgery this Wednesday, which will take six weeks to recover from. As a consequence, Vansevenant won't be present at the start line of the Coppi e Bartali competition, and Martin Svrcek will replace him.
“The tests have shown that he suffers from pre-patellar friction syndrome. This means that Mauri will undergo surgery in Herentals next Wednesday and will have to recover for six weeks,” read the statement shared on social media.

- It's not a big blow for Pogacar. Today, Pogacar relies on a close, increasingly Slovenian circle of experts. Among them, the central figure is his longtime friend Ziga Jerman, who took on the role of masseur in 2025. Jerman has known Pogačar since before his global fame, when they cycled together at the Ljubljana club Rog, so Elguezabal’s departure does not pose a threat for Pogi but rather marks the end of a very successful chapter. UAE will have to fill the gap in its professional staff, but for Pogi, this departure will not play an important role.NikkoNicco04-12-2025
- OK, enough of this BS. No one went to college or university from kindergarten. First, Remco must graduate from high school with excellent results to meet with the professor Pogacar in university and to be in same room with him. But you see, Pogi the Great also has a PhD (doctorate in cycling). In 2026, I want to see that success from Remco in high school, because I haven't seen it in these 7 years.NikkoNicco04-12-2025
