Valenciana GC marks win number six for Evenepoel in 2026

Remco Evenepoel has been on a mission so far in 2026, notching up yet another win by sealing the overall title at the Volta Comunitat Valenciana on Sunday's stage 5, which was won by Raúl García Pierna (Movistar) from the breakaway just two seconds ahead of the bunch.

Evenepoel took two individual stage wins on the way to GC victory, including stage 2's ITT – albeit with times neutralised due to windy conditions – and stage 4's solo move off the Cumbre de Sol. These and the overall bring his season tally to six after his trio of wins in Mallorca, including a TTT victory with new team Red Bull-Bora Hansgrohe. Evenepoel's next objective is the UAE Tour (16-22 Feb), his first WorldTour appearance of the season.
