Five-time Tour de France champion Tadej Pogacar has ended his season early to focus on recovery after last weekend’s crash during Vuelta a Espana left him with injuries that required surgery, his team UAE Team Emirates-XRG said on Saturday.
Slovenian Pogacar, who was leading the Vuelta when the crash forced him to abandon, has also extended his contract with his team until 2032.
