An Open Letter to My Management Regarding My Performance at the Tour de France
Dear Management Team,
I write this letter to express my thoughts and reflections on my recent performance at the Tour de France. As an athlete deeply committed to my sport and dedicated to achieving excellence, the outcome of this year’s Tour has left me with a mix of emotions—disappointment, determination, and a relentless drive to improve.
Firstly, I want to acknowledge the support and guidance you have provided throughout my career. Your expertise and strategic planning have been invaluable in preparing me for the challenges of elite cycling. However, my performance at the Tour de France did not meet the expectations we all set for ourselves.
I take full responsibility for my performance. The Tour de France is a grueling test of physical and mental strength, and this year, I faced unforeseen challenges that impacted my ability to perform at my peak. Despite meticulous preparation and training, the complexities of elite competition sometimes lead to outcomes beyond our immediate control.
Moving forward, I am more determined than ever to learn from this experience and grow stronger. I am committed to analyzing every aspect of my preparation and performance, working closely with you to identify areas for improvement, and implementing necessary adjustments to achieve better results in the future.
Your continued support and belief in my capabilities mean everything to me. Together, we have navigated through challenges before, and I am confident that with our collective effort and dedication, we will emerge stronger from this setback.
Thank you for your unwavering support and guidance. I look forward to working closely with you to pursue our shared goals and to continue striving for excellence in every race.
Sincerely,
Remco Evenepoel
