Tadej Pogacar’s reign will be tested as fellow countryman Primoz Roglic has been tipped to blow the Tour de France battle wide open with a “Slovenian showdown". Eurosport cycling expert Adam Blythe has questioned whether anyone in the field can upset Pogacar, especially Slovenian Roglic, whilst Robbie McEwen explains why the latter has difficulty coming off his bike.
COPENHAGEN: Raucous crowds at the Copenhagen Tivoli theme park gave the Tour de France the kind of reception organizers could only have dreamed of on Wednesday.
The loudest cheers were for Danish riders such as Jonas Vingegaard and for the biggest names led by champion Tadej Pogacar.
The 109th Tour de France will begin with a short time trial on the streets of Copenhagen on Friday.
Is this the year someone works out how to stop Tadej Pogacar? The Slovenian two-time defending champion starts as a big favourite again, with the usual cast assembling to halt his three-peat bid. Primoz Roglic, the man who was cruelly unseated from yellow on the last competitive stage in 2020, and Geraint Thomas, the rejuvenated 2018 champion, are among those fancying a pop at the youngster – and both Ineos Grenadiers and Jumbo-Visma have assembled fierce squads in an attempt to crack him.
Primoz Roglic said he’s “super happy to be back in the action,” on the back of a successful day at Criterium du Dauphine, after a knee injury forced him to restructure his schedule. The Slovenian impressed on a key day in the Dauphine’s mountain stages, silencing any pre-race doubters, and is happy with how his form is progressing ahead of the Tour de France. Ad/> At Vaujany on Saturday, Roglic skipped clear of a weary GC group on the upper reaches of the final climb to showcase his growing form, which also put him in the yellow jersey, with the opportunity to win the Dauphine for the first time in Jumbo-Visma’s history.
Columbian cyclist Juan Sebastian Molano on Friday was disqualified from the Criterium du Dauphine for punching a fellow rider during the sixth stage. A video of Molano, who rides for the UAE team, punching France's Hugo Page went viral on social media. In the video, Molano can be seen complaining about something to Page, before punching the latter. Following the incident, Molano admitted his mistake, saying that he will "learn from it".
MONTBRISON, FRANCE: Filippo Ganna of Ineos Grenadiers won stage 4 of cycling’s Criterium du Dauphine on Wednesday edging his key rival Wout van Aert on the 31.9km time trial with a sizzling time of 35min 32sec.
