Nairo Quintana king of the solo victory; 96.6% of road race wins taken on his lonesome

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.
