Slovenian Tadej Pogacar said his wrist may not recover fully in time for next month's Tour de France and he could race with a brace as he looks to win cycling's most prestigious crown for a third time.
Team Jumbo Visma and Primoz Roglic will try to «crack Remco Evenepoel mentally» at the Giro d'Italia, believes former world road race champion Philippe Gilbert. The much-anticipated showdown between Roglic and Evenepoel is a clash of the eras, with Roglic — at 33 — the elder statesman compared to the Belgian's 23 years of age. Ad And as well as the individual battle, there is the intriguing aspect of the role the pair's respective teams will play during the Giro.
It’s almost here! The most eagerly-anticipated Giro d’Italia in years begins with a 19.6km individual time trial in Fossacesia on Saturday, with Remco Evenepoel (Soudal-QuickStep), Primoz Roglic (Jumbo-Visma) and Geraint Thomas (Ineos Grenadiers) among those hoping to snaffle the maglia rosa. Ad Evenepoel will start as narrow favourite ahead of Roglic, who has returned to the peloton in sensational form after a horror crash ended his Vuelta hopes last September. Had Roglic stayed upright, it could have been the Slovenian, and not the Belgian, who carted off with the red jersey in Spain.
Geraint Thomas may struggle to keep up with Primoz Roglic and Remco Evenepoel at the upcoming Giro d'Italia, reckons Eurosport's Alberto Contador. Thomas finished third at last year's Tour de France, which was a commendable performance given the superiority of Tadej Pogacar and eventual winner Jonas Vingegaard.
Jonas Vingegaard has signed a three-year contract extension with Team Jumbo-Visma. The 2022 Tour de France winner will stay with the team until 2027 after joining in 2019. Ad Since his arrival, he was part of the Jumbo-Visma team that won Vuelta a Espana with Primoz Roglic in 2020, and came second in the Tour de France in 2021 before going on to win it the following year.
Tour de France champion Jonas Vingegaard has extended his contract with Jumbo-Visma for another three years until 2027, the Dutch outfit confirmed on Tuesday.
Tadej Pogacar (UAE Team Emirates) and Jonas Vingegaard (Jumbo-Visma) have gone blow for blow in the early part of the 2023 season as the pair look set to for another battle royale at July's Tour de France. Pogacar has confirmed his status as a rider for all stages, winning Paris-Nice and the Tour of Flanders to go alongside the existing Grand Tour pedigree he already has.
Ethan Hayter emerged as the winner at Monday’s opening stage of the 2023 Itzulia Basque Country. The INEOS Grenadiers rider secured a sprint victory with some assured assistance from his team, putting down a winning time of 4:01:24 in northern Spain on the ride to Labastida in the Basque Country.
