Remco Evenepoel returns to the Clasica de San Sebastian with one aim: the outright wins record. The 26-year-old, who's tied with Marino Lejarreta on three victories apiece, is coming off an impressive second-place showing at Tour de France 2026, but he's up against tough opposition in the Basque Country.
He'll lead lead a formidable Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe unit, which includes cycling great Primoz Roglic and emerging talent Giulio Pellizzari, against reigning champion Giulio Ciccone (Lidl-Trek), Lenny Martinez (Bahrain Victorious), who finished fifth in the TdF, 2024 winner Marc Hirschi (Tudor Pro), plus Matteo Jorgenson (Visma-Lease a Bike) and Joao Almeida (UAE Team Emirates XRG).
The 221.1km route both begins and ends in San Sebastian (Donostia in Basque) via seven categorised climbs, the Clasica de San Sebastian's most famous sequence being the Jaizkibel (7.9km at 5.6%), Erlaitz (3.8km at 10.6%) and Murgil (2.1km at 10.1%), all within the final third of the race.
Those three peaks – along with the Urraki (8.6km at 6.9%) earlier on – account for the majority of the Donostia Klasikoa's 4,150m of elevation gain, but it's their close proximity, both to each other and to the finish line, that makes them especially potent.
