Tadej Pogacar can join some elite clubs at the Tour de France over the next few weeks but a man still eligible for the young rider’s classification has no time to think about his place in history.
UAE Team Emirates and their champion rider Tadej Pogacar will be looking to reinforce their position at the pinnacle of cycling when they begin defence of the Tour de France title on July 1.
PARIS : List of Tour de France champions since the event was first staged in 1903 (no races during the World Wars):
Last year Mark Cavendish won a second green jersey a decade after his first with four sprint victories that saw him draw level with Eddy Merckx’s long-standing Tour de France record of 34 stage wins. But the Manxman’s snub by his Quick-Step Alpha Vinyl team means we will have to wait at least another year to see Cavendish attempt to become the outright record stage record holder – and probably in the colours of a different team.
Eddy Merckx says the fondest win of his career was winning the Tour de France for the first time in 1969. The legendary cyclist won the Tour de France five times in his career, but he admits he never thought it would happen for him. Ad/> «I dreamed about the Tour de France but I never thought I'd win it,» he told the Power of Sport.
Tadej Pogacar will start the Tour de France as the overwhelming favourite to wear yellow in Paris once again.
Quick-Step Alpha Vinyl have announced that Tim Declercq will miss this year’s Tour de France after testing positive for Covid. Florian Senechal will be his replacement, meaning that Mark Cavandish remains sidelined reserve ahead of the race.
Mark Cavendish has not been handed a Tour de France place, his QuickStep-AlphaVinyl team have confirmed.
