'Without that fall, I would have won the race' - Remco Evenepoel comes back from mid-race crash to contest three-way sprint at Amstel Gold Race

Remco Evenepoel leads out the three-way sprint at Amstel Gold Race 2025.

Remco Evenepoel (Soudal-QuickStep) is on a successful comeback after a winter spent recovering from a complex shoulder injury, winning De Brabantse Pijl on Friday and finishing third in a three-way sprint against winner Mattias Skjelmose (Lidl-Trek) and runner-up Tadej Pogačar (UAE Team Emirates-XRG) at Amstel Gold Race on Sunday - a race he said he could have won had he not crashed mid-race.

"I have mixed feelings. Positive, because I have come from very far. It is only my second day of racing, and I can come back on the strongest man of the moment. That is motivating, because that had not happened yet," Evenepoel said in a post-race interview with Sporza.
