The Giro only presented… in January: too late for Remco Evenepoel?

She has known precisely, for a fortnight already, what the route of the Tour de 2025 will look like, Remco Evenepoel has no idea of ​​the difficulties that the next Tour of Italy will offer (May 9-1is June). We know that the Belgian cycling star planned to double the Giro and Grande Boucle next season. There was certainly no official confirmation yet but Patrick Lefevere had made no secret, particularly in the Dutch-speaking press, that this idea was making headway in the mind of his multiple Olympic champion.

Is this ambitious project in trouble? Possible because we will only finally know the official route of the Giro 2025 on January 13, two months after the date which had initially been envisaged by the organizer, RCS. The cause according to the transalpine media: the absence of an agreement with Albania, a country which was to host the “Grande Partenza” for the first time. Financial and logistical parameters would still pose problems between the two countries.

In mid-December, RCS will position itself on the exact location of this Grand Départ (Sicily would be the preferred plan B), the complete map of the Tour of Italy will be revealed a month later. Or… very late for the champions who, like Remco, are preparing for the general classification and de facto establishing their season program in the fall.
