Remco Evenepoel is tempted to ride the Giro d’Italia and Tour de France in 2024 but his Soudal-QuickStep team manager Patrick Lefevere is against such a heavy programme for his young team leader.  

Evenepoel was forced out of the 2023 Giro d'Italia due to COVID-19 and so could be tempted to return next season to try to win the maglia rosa before making his debut at the Tour, perhaps without ambitions of overall victory.
