In it, the 78-year-old Belgian lashed out at Tadej Pogacar. The Slovenian was severely criticized, although the world champio...

Why Pogacar (who turned his Euros jersey into a training kit) doesn't need to worry about his wallet The vast financial differences between WorldTour teams are increasingly being pointed out. There is therefore plenty of talk about a salary cap, but Slovenian rider Tadej Pogacar doesn’t appear to have to worry about his wallet. He is busy with other things — such as finally wearing his European cha...

“As valuable as the victories”: Why Pogacar drives UAE’s record 95-win season - off the bike UAE Team Emirates-XRG enjoyed the best season in the history of men’s road cycling last year, but they still went one better in 2025. Ninety-five victories later, they know it’ll be hard to raise the bar again — yet they’ll go all-in once more. Tim Wellens and Pavel Sivakov explain what’s so special...

A solution against the dominant superteams has been proposed - by the agent of Tadej Pogacar It’s a trend that has worried many inside the peloton: the biggest outfits keep getting stronger, while smaller teams increasingly struggle to keep pace — and to keep sponsors. UAE Team Emirates‑XRG collected 95 wins in 2025, yet it’s the agent of Tadej Pogačar who is now sounding the alarm. Alex Ca...

Arensman spoiled Pogacar and Vingegaard’s plans — but the real shift began in Nice and Van Aert and Del Toro-battle Not so long ago, a Dutch rider finishing top ten in the Tour de France would spark national praise. In 2025, Thymen Arensman’s two (!) stage wins didn’t trigger a national holiday either — but that’s mostly because Dutch fans have been spoiled for years. Still, the 25‑year‑old INEOS Grenadiers climb...

UAE Team Emirates - XRG won't allow Pogacar to race cyclocross: 'Otherwise, he’d jump straight back in' Cyclocross has long been a relatively international sport, yet it’s still dominated by the Flemish riders.
