Belgium has announced the team of riders who will support Remco Evenepoel and Wout van Aert during the road race at the 2026 UCI Road World Championships, which will take place in Montreal, Canada, on September 27. These championships are a major event in the cycling calendar, where the world's top cyclists compete for the title of world champion in various disciplines, including the road race. Evenepoel and van Aert are two of Belgium's most prominent cyclists, known for their exceptional performances in both track and road cycling. They will be supported by a group of experienced and skilled riders, including Tiesj Benoot, who has been a key figure in Belgian cycling for several years. Benoot has participated in multiple world championships and has a strong track record in both individual and team events. The selection of the supporting riders is crucial for the success of the main cyclists in the road race, which is typically a long and demanding event. The supporting riders help in various ways, such as pacing, protecting the leader from the wind, and assisting in attacks or breaks during the race. This team effort is essential in such high-level competitions where the difference between victory and defeat can be very small. The announcement gives fans and cycling enthusiasts an idea of what to expect from the Belgian team in Montreal. With Evenepoel and van Aert as the main stars, and a strong supporting cast, Belgium is aiming to make a strong showing at the world championships. The event in Montreal is expected to attract a large audience and will be a highlight of the cycling season in 2026.
