I digest his training and schedules well. So far, I have only had a good feeling about it, and the communication is good, just like the results,&#8221; Evenepoel said back in February.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\" aria-hidden=\"true\">&#8220;The fact that I won immediately after tough training periods is positive for both of us. We get along well and work very professionally. Everything went smoothly.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\" aria-hidden=\"true\">&#8220;I have had very few training days with just easy cycling. There was always an exercise involved, or I had to build up my level of fatigue. That is his philosophy.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\" aria-hidden=\"true\">While Evenepoel is heading next to Amstel after his groundbreaking third place in the Tour of Flanders, it remains completely unclear where Lorang, 45, will be headed after July.

I digest his training and schedules well. So far, I have only had a good feeling about it, and the communication is good, just like the results,&#8221; Evenepoel said back in February.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\" aria-hidden=\"true\">&#8220;The fact that I won immediately after tough training periods is positive for both of us. We get along well and work very professionally. Everything went smoothly.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\" aria-hidden=\"true\">&#8220;I have had very few training days with just easy cycling. There was always an exercise involved, or I had to build up my level of fatigue. That is his philosophy.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\" aria-hidden=\"true\">While Evenepoel is heading next to Amstel after his groundbreaking third place in the Tour of Flanders, it remains completely unclear where Lorang, 45, will be headed after July.

Most recently was credited as having an important role to play in new signing Remco Evenepoel&#8217;s dramatically successful start to the season.<\/p>\n<p id=\"elk-1acb95cd-a26a-4e36-98b4-00e33dd8d226-2\" class=\"paywall\" aria-hidden=\"true\">Midway through last year, the Luxembourg-born trainer went from being a coach purely at Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe to working across all athletes in the Red Bull sporting stable.

This openness and fairness have always defined our partnership.

I digest his training and schedules well. So far, I have only had a good feeling about it, and the communication is good, just like the results,&#8221; Evenepoel said back in February.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\" aria-hidden=\"true\">&#8220;The fact that I won immediately after tough training periods is positive for both of us. We get along well and work very professionally. Everything went smoothly.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\" aria-hidden=\"true\">&#8220;I have had very few training days with just easy cycling. There was always an exercise involved, or I had to build up my level of fatigue. That is his philosophy.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\" aria-hidden=\"true\">While Evenepoel is heading next to Amstel after his groundbreaking third place in the Tour of Flanders, it remains completely unclear where Lorang, 45, will be headed after July. But given what he has achieved with Red Bull to date, interest will certainly be high regardless.<\/p>\n<p id=\"elk-3f8346bd-023f-442b-a355-df878a37a9cc\"><em><strong>Get unlimited access to our unrivalled <\/strong><\/em><em><strong>2026 Spring Classics <\/strong><\/em><em><strong>coverage with a Cyclingnews subscription.
