68 days: Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe explain why Remco Evenepoel is not racing for over two months as part of Tour de France build-up

Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe have explained why Remco Evenepoel is spending more than two months away from racing prior to heading to the Tour de France this July.

Evenepoel last raced in Liège-Bastogne-Liège, where he took third behind Tadej Pogačar (UAE Team Emirates-XRG) and Paul Seixas (Decathlon CMA CGM) and – in what is a very long mid-season period away from racing compared with the programs of many other top pros – will next be seen in action in the Tour de France start in Barcelona on July 4.
