"Stop winning, thank you" - How Remco Evenepoel responds to overwhelming dominance of Tadej Pogacar at Vuelta a Andalucia
Cycling
Tadej Pogacar has been on quite a winning streak at the Vuelta a Andalucia, winning three out of four stages and carrying the yellow jersey comfortably. Remco Evenepoel has commented on Instagram on the Slovenian's page with a joking message.
"Stop winning, thank you," read a comment from the World Champion himself on a post where Pogacar proudly exhibited the 50th win of his career. At only 24 years of age Pogacar continues to bring in more wins, with another expected today as he is the favourite to seal the overall classification in the Spanish race.
Pogacar has started off his season at the Clásica Jaén Paraiso Interior where he's won comfortably, and won almost all stages in his current competition. The one day he did not win, his teammate Tim Wellens did.
The two were initially expected to clash at this upcoming week's UAE Tour but there was a change from the Slovenian. Evenepoel however will be racing in the Middle East where he will be one of the main contenders, with the duo unlikely to meet now until Liège-Bastogne-Liège where they are the two most recent winners.

- I think you overestimate scientific knowledge and for sure the spreading of it. There are huge numbers of people in similar situations, if there were an easy solution somebody would be making big money out of it. Nerve pain can have many complex origins or be due to complex combinations of reasons. Even if you discover a reason there is not always a solution. Migraines haven’t been solved either. I have had lower back/hip nerve pains on and off for over 30 years, no kind of doctor has ever found a way to reduce, prevent or solve the problem. It may just be that some people are born with nerves that are too short or get twisted out of position during certain movements.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
- Amazing ride by her and very promising for her future. On a side note, it’s a bit worrying all these wins riders have after emotional moments in their lives, someone will come up with emotional doping at some point.
