My elbow is open, my back is open, and my hips are open.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Evenepoel figures to be among the main contenders for the overall victory in Catalunya, which features mountain finishes at the Coll de Pal and Queralt in the coming days before Sunday&#8217;s finish at Montju\u00efc Park in Barcelona.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\" aria-hidden=\"true\">He&#8217;ll continue the race later today on the 151.2km stage 4 to Camprodon. Evenepoel lies second overall, 11 seconds down on race leader and double stage winner Godon and seven seconds up on Vingegaard.
