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.
