Tour de France 2022: Primiz Roglic says Tadej Pogacar rivalry is ‘special’ for fans and pushes him to improve

Primiz Roglic insists he cannot focus on Tadej Pogacar when the pair renew their rivalry at the Tour de France next month. Pogacar is the two-time defending champion and prevailed in a memorable tussle with Roglic back in 2020. Ad/> Roglic was then forced to abandon last year’s race ahead of Stage 9 following a crash, and fresh from winning the Criterium du Dauphine, the 32-year-old Jumbo-Visma rider is relishing the prospect of competing in the Tour again, with the 2022 edition starting on July 1 in Denmark.

'No guarantees' - Chris Froome says he knows that his Tour de France spot is up in the air as he seeks top form

El Jumbo ya manda: Van Aert, poderoso, estrena el Dauphiné

Desde Italia, todas las miradas se dirigen hacia Francia. Después de la victoria de Jai Hindley en el Giro, el Tour de Francia, que arrancará el próximo 1 de julio, ya asoma la cabeza. Hasta entonces, todos los esfuerzos comparten objetivo: llegar en el mejor estado de forma posible a la gran vuelta francesa. Algunos equipos optan por Suiza; otros, como Tadej Pogacar, por las vueltas nacionales; buena parte de los nombres importantes del pelotón, por el Critèrium del Dauphiné. En tierras francesas, en la región Auvernia-Ródano-Alpes, adelantando trabajo, ya está el Jumbo, con un elenco imponente y con la misión en el horizonte de, con su potencial colectivo, neutralizar al omnipotente Pogi. «El primer objetivo es volver a competir», decía Primoz Roglic antes de empezar la etapa. «Ha sido difícil remontar, pero lo he conseguido», su compañero Wout Van Aert, que no rodaba oficialmente desde la Lieja-Bastoña-Lieja, el pasado 24 de abril, y que se exhibió en el esprint final ante Ethan Hayter (Ineos).

Giro d’Italia demons purged, can Jai Hindley now threaten cycling superstars Tadej Pogacar and Primoz Roglic?

Jai Hindley successfully broke up a Giro d’Italia duopoly on Sunday in becoming the first rider in five years to secure the maglia rosa who wasn’t either from Ineos Grenadiers or called Richard Carapaz. The Bora-Hansgrohe rider also became the first rider outside cycling’s big three teams – Ineos, Jumbo-Visma and UAE Team Emirates – to win a Grand Tour in the previous nine editions since Carapaz’s Giro win for Movistar in 2019.
