Race Recap
Evenepoel wins emotional Liege Bastogne Liege
Remco Evenepoel (QST) took victory today at Liege Bastogne Liege after a grueling 257km of racing. The Belgian took the win for the host country for the first time in 11 years after attacking solo on the Côte de la Redoute with 25km to go, catching and passing the only rider remaining from the early breakaway of 11 riders, Bruno Armirail (GFC), and continuing to put time into a select group of chasers. Quinten Hermans finished second and Wout van Aert took third in the reduced sprint, 40 seconds after Evenepoel crossed the line.
“It was amazing. It was really hard and with the headwind it was really difficult to keep pushing but I knew that everybody had been suffering the whole day. It was quite a hard day and a long day as well. I think today was maybe my best day on the bike, maybe ever. It was the perfect day to have the best day on the bike,” Evenepoel said.
“I have been suffering mentally and physically for the last year and a half. Finally this year I feel that everything is going well and everything is getting stable and I’m getting to the best Remco as well. I’ve been showing the best Remco since turning pro so I’m really happy and proud to win this race."
