He is focused on his participation in the Tour de France and has high expectations for his new team, EF Education-EasyPost, however, Richard Carapaz, an Olympic medalist from Ecuador, is still not convincing with his current team.

According to a site specialized in cycling cycling news, the tricolor even received criticism from the organization of the historic French tour.

After his first victory since February, the portal asks if Carapaz has reached the Tour, talking about the Ecuadorian.

“Richard Carapaz has stagnated since moving to EF Education-EasyPost,” was how the Dauphiné (and Tour de France) organizers somewhat harshly described the Ecuadorian star last week,” the note reads.

“However, that was before Carapaz took his second win of the season, and first since winning the national road title at the start of February, at the Mercan’Tour Classic Alpes-Maritimes mountain race,” he added.

They also believe that the last performances of the national cyclist were not the best.

“Winning the Mercan’Tour thanks to a solo break from seven kilometers to the top climb in Valberg was a remarkable step in the right direction after Carapaz’s lackluster spring,” the site concluded. (D)
