'I shouldn't look at them, but at where I was last year' - Remco Evenepoel focuses on his own progress at Criterium du Dauphine

Remco Evenepoel, during the Critérium du Dauphiné, is facing a significant time deficit against Tadej Pogačar and Jonas Vingegaard. After finishing third in last year's Tour de France, Evenepoel emphasizes comparing his current performances to his past rather than competing against the top two. Despite winning a time trial stage, he continues to struggle in the mountains. With a notable gap of 4:11 to the leader, he appears unlikely to secure a podium finish unless he delivers an extraordinary performance in the final stage.

Evenepoel reflected that it's more beneficial to compare his current performance with his own past efforts instead of focusing on his rivals.

Evenepoel is set to finish off the podium at the Dauphiné due to his time deficit from the leading competitors Pogačar and Vingegaard.
