- Well, it's the English spelling of Georges so that's not 100% right and I won't keep making babies forever. [Van Aert in August 2023, when asked whether the name of the finish line George Square like his oldest son's name and then whether the recent birth of his second son Jerome could give him wings at the UCI Road World Championships held in Glasgow, Scotland]
- It feels familiar with him Mathieu van der Poel at the start. Then you know that we'll meet in the final, especially in a cyclocross. When I beat Mathieu, my conclusion is usually that it's been a perfect race. Then all the puzzle pieces fit. [Van Aert in June 2023, respectful towards Mathieu van der Poel]
- I don't like the new color of the jersey. [Van Aert in June 2023, bantering about why he wouldn't be racing for the Tour de France points classification (the green jersey color changed), as he focused on stage wins and helping teammate Jonas Vingegaard win the general classification]
