Giro d'Italia 2023: Evenepoel's absence shakes up the race.
The Giro d'Italia will be a very different race without Remco Evenepoel, who has left the race after testing positive for COVID-19. Ineos Grenadiers now have the strongest collective, but with Evenepoel gone, their race changes from one of looking for opportunities to suddenly having to adopt much more responsibility. Primož Roglič has had his own setbacks too, but Jumbo-Visma will look at Ineos and company with much more optimism. The real tactical plays have to come from riders like João Almeida, Lennard Kämna, Aleksandr Vlasov or Damiano Caruso.
