Tadej Pogacar has no limit in one-day races, can challenge for all five Monuments – Adam Blythe

Tadej Pogacar (UAE Team Emirates) has no limit in one-day races, claims Eurosport expert Adam Blythe, who tipped the Slovenian to challenge for all five Monuments during his career. The two-time Tour de France champion has enjoyed a stellar start to 2023, claiming three stages as he took the overall crown at Vuelta a Andalucia last week and also won Jaen Paraiso Interior on his season debut. Ad He heads into the new road season chasing revenge, having relinquished the Tour title to Jonas Vingegaard (Jumbo-Visma) and finished fourth in a two-horse race at the Tour of Flanders following a tactical calamity.

And when asked what Pogacar’s ceiling was in the Classics, Blythe replied: “I don’t think he has one, to be honest. “I think he'll want to come back to Flanders this year and prove a point.

He did an amazing ride last year, then bad tactics let him down. So I think he'll just want to come back and dominate it like he did last year. “The one-day races suit him as a rider.” Cycling’s five Monuments – Milan-San Remo, Tour of Flanders, Paris-Roubaix, Liege-Bastogne-Liege and Il Lombardia – are widely considered the most prestigious one-day races outside the Olympics and World Championships.
