Wout Van Aert and Remco Evenepoel indicated each other as favourites for Friday's elite men’s time trial World Championships, hoping that one of them can win the rainbow jersey for Belgium.
Van Aert and Evenepoel fell out massively after the 2021 World Championships in Belgium when Evenepoel rode his own race, and Van Aert failed to tell his teammates he was on a bad day until it was far too late. Two years on, with both having won significantly, the two have a far better relationship and are happy to share the expectations.
