Cyclist Evenepoel Leaves Initiative for World Championship Road Race to Other Countries
World champion Remco Evenepoel plans to rely on the sprint capabilities of himself and teammate Wout van Aert for Sunday's road race in Montreal, rather than forcing an early break. The 26-year-old acknowledged his favorite status following recent wins but noted that the French team, featuring Paul Seixas, could dominate the course. Evenepoel aims to lure other nations out before launching a decisive attack later in the race. Van Aert suggested he and Evenepoel could ally with Mathieu van der Poel if needed, as the Belgian duo recognizes the circuit's difficulty while acknowledging van der Poel's own pursuit of victory.
