Patrick Lefevere

Single-day races and Classics Patrick Lefevere (born 6 January 1955) is a Belgian former professional cyclist, who currently serves as the general manager of UCI WorldTeam Soudal–Quick-Step.

[3] Lefevere is from Flanders, the Dutch-speaking region of the north and was a professional racer from 1976 to 1979, winning Kuurne–Brussels–Kuurne[4] and the fourth stage in the Vuelta a España,[5] both in 1978.

In 2001, Lefevere returned to Belgium and created Domo-Farm Frites, with which he won several races, including two Paris–Roubaix (Knaven, Museeuw).

The formation became a point of reference in one-day races thanks to victories by Paolo Bettini, twice World Champion, Olympic Champion and record victory holder in the Classics, along with Tom Boonen, who made his mark more than a few times at the Paris–Roubaix and in the Tour of Flanders, won a World Championship and took home the green jersey in the 2007 Tour.

In 2014, Michał Kwiatkowski of Omega Pharma–Quick-Step won the rainbow jersey at the 2014 UCI World Road Race Championships in Ponferrada, Spain.
