Evenepoel, who will compete again in the Vuelta a San Juan in Argentina, will mainly focus his forces in 2023 on the Giro d’Italia: “I think Liège-Bastogne-Liège will be the most special day of the year because I will be riding it as the reigning champion and with the rainbow jersey.. After that, my thoughts will turn to the Giro d’Italia, my big goal this year.”
“We are exactly four months from the start of the race and I can say that my goals are to go there and get at least one win and have a good overall. But at the same time we know that a lot can happen in three weeks, so we will go step by step, just like we did in La Vuelta, let’s see what happens,” he concluded.
