    Quotes

    Speaking seconds after the finish, the winner of the 2023 UAE Tour, Remco Evenepoel, said: “It was hard out there. I thought Yates was going to stay on my wheel and then jump in the last few hundred metres, and I would have been happy with that, but in the end I had to go over the limit to keep up with him. I was happy I could always see him in front of me, so I knew the overall victory was mine. I am really happy with this overall victory – I was there every day and on the two mountain stages I finished in second place. As a team we can be very proud. We’re going home with three stage wins and the Red Jersey – and this is my first race victory as the world champion.”

    Stage winner Adam Yates said: “I want to say a big thank you to my team. They believed and trusted in me, and this victory is for them. Our plan was to go full gas at the foot of Jebel Hafeet because we had nothing to lose as I was so far down on GC after the crosswind stages. My teammates did an amazing job and when I attacked early, I knew I had to try and drop everyone else, and thankfully, I managed to do that. I’m really happy to win.”
