'Doomsday scenario' - Everything being done to stop Remco Evenepoel catching Covid, says Quick-Step Alpha Vinyl
A positive Covid-19 test for La Vuelta leader Remco Evenepoel is the ‘doomsday scenario’ for Quick-Step Alpha Vinyl, team manager Patrick Lefevere said after an outbreak of the virus among riders. The number of riders who have been infected rose to 24 on Friday when Juan Ayuso (UAE Team Emirates) tested positive, although he was allowed to continue competing due to a low viral load. Ad Evenepoel has dominated the final Grand Tour of the season and held a 2:41 lead over Primoz Roglic (Jumbo-Visma) going into Stage 14.
