On his Tour de France debut, Remco Evenepoel will have the full support and backing of the Soudal - Quick-Step team in his quest to claim the Maillot Jaune.
“Riding the Tour de France is the dream of every kid who falls in love with cycling. It’s something I too have dreamed about since the moment I rode my bike and I’m incredibly excited to be at the start for the first time in my career with this great team. We have a strong squad and we are ready to give our best," previews the Belgian, former Vuelta a Espana winner to the official website of the Soudal - Quick-Step team. "Of course, I would like to have a good Tour and get some nice results, but let’s not forget it’s my debut in this hard and beautiful event which is unlike any other, so the plan is to discover the race, take it one day at a time and see where this leads us.”
Alongside Evenepoel, the likes of long-time Grand Tour contender in his own right Mikel Landa, Belgian Grand Tour prospect Ilan Van Wilder and top-10 finisher at the 2024 Giro d'Italia, Jan Hirt offer considerable climbing support. Completing a very strong team, the trio of Gianni Moscon, Casper Pedersen, Louis Vervaeke and the vastly experienced Yves Lampaert.

“With both Remco and Mikel on the team we can aim for a good result in the general classification. Mikel has a lot of experience, as do many of our riders, and together they make for quite a strong and balanced team," previews Soudal - Quick-Step sports director, Tom Steels. "Looking on the parcours, I think you can easily say this will be one of the toughest editions in recent years. The start is very hard, we have some big climbs early in the race followed by that gravel stage, and then the second and third week will be very demanding. We need to be focused and at the top of our game to get some good results, and we are confident in this team and what it can do this July.”
