Nairo Quintana king of the solo victory; 96.6% of road race wins taken on his lonesome
CyclingFriday, 29 September 2023 at 23:30
Nairo Quintana may be struggling to find himself a contract and a return to World Tour cycling, but it must be remembered that at his peak he was a force to be reckoned with as this stat from Cycling Statistics proves.
The Colombian has a total of 29 road race victories throughout his time in the peloton and a massively impressive tally of 28 of them were achieved in solo fashion. This gives the former Movistar Team and Arkea-Samsic rider a percentage of 96.6% of his wins being solo.
This gives Quintana a massive lead over any other rider. The closest is Simon Yates in second, the Brit has taken 21 of 26 victories solo. Ecuadorian Richard Carapaz has the third highest percentage at 71.4 percent with 10 out of 14 wins solo with Quintana's former rival Chris Froome in fourth (68.2% 15/22) and rounding out the top 5 is Remco Evenepoel.

- Oh, so now you know Pog better than he knows himself? Saying that when at the same time you can see an article quoting Pog saying “sometimes I don’t know why I attack” and not ever analysing emotions as men tend to is really rather naive and reductive. Hardly worth wasting our planet’s energy and ressources for. How about elevating the discussion to think over things a bit deeper?Mistermaumau20-11-2024
- They couldn’t convict him criminally because he paid up to escape it (that weird American possibility that ensures not all are equal before the law). He was convicted civilly but technically for committing crime. I on the other hand live in a country where unexplained damage to a baby in your care in theory leads to minimum 5 years of prison, if you admit an accident it’s more lenient but telling the truth that you don’t know how a bump on the skull happened exposes you to the as much risk as some who murder and rape. The developed world doesn’t deserve that designationMistermaumau20-11-2024
- Doesn’t deserve criticism considering all he won with all the crashes plus how close he got to a TdF (Pog had luck). If Pog and Jonas battle and wipe each other out we have Remco and Primoz to put on a show.Mistermaumau20-11-2024
- Agreed. Until he can stay upright on his bike, he’s at best an incomplete for a grade. That doesn’t mean that on his best form he can’t win it all. We just haven’t seen it.mij20-11-2024

- After the Cian Saga, all contracts should have a release clause or at least a legal framework for contract breaking. this is getting ridiculous.abstractengineer20-11-2024
- Other than Pog, the other leaders are beatable and They contributed 56 wins. But when team strategy is to pit best leaders against Pog and so-so leaders against Hirschi, Yates, Mcnulty, that team is going to lose everything.abstractengineer20-11-2024
