Remco Evenepoel will share the leadership role with Florian Lipowitz at the 2026 Tour de France in 2026, he said at Red Bull Bora’s training camp in Mallorca yesterday.
Double Olympic and multiple world champion Evenepoel has joined Lipowitz at Red Bull after a move from Belgian outfit Quick Step.
“This will be the first time I share leadership in the Tour de France. That’s a good thing, it’s always better to have several options.
“We are both aiming for the ultimate goal: victory,” said the soon to be 26-year-old sporting a new goatee beard.
Evenepoel came third at the Tour de France in 2024, but had to abandon this year on the slopes of the Tourmalet during the 14th stage.
He then went to Rwanda and won the world time trial title in sensational style.
But at the Tour, Lipowitz took third in what was a breakout Remco Evenepoel season for him.
