O mecânico de Pogačar, Boštjan Kavčnik, revela: "Só depois da finalização é que percebemos que Tadej tinha montado o final numa moldura rachada. " "O garfo traseiro estava danificado, mas felizmente manteve-se unido. Se Tadej tivesse conhecido a verdadeira condição da bicicleta, ele nunca teria descido tão agressivamente como atacou na descida e quando tentou levar Tom Pidcock ao limite. " "Tadej caiu do lado esquerdo, onde não há trocador de marchas, mas o modo de queda ainda foi acionado. Ele mesmo o reiniciou e não notou mais nada de errado, então não trocámos a bicicleta. " "A propósito, foi também a primeira vez que ele optou por uma única corrente frontal. Ao remover o trocador frontal e a coroa extra, economizamos peso e melhoramos a aerodinâmica. Ele também usou rodas mais altas com pneus mais estreitos: 28 mm este ano em comparação com 30 mm no ano passado. Nossa equipe de desempenho calculou que essa configuração seria ideal para uma corrida tão rápida. " "Esta bicicleta vai agora para a sua coleção especial, não pode mais ser usada.

📸Viejo CHUCK, que te vaya bien allá donde hayas querido irte🫂



Het 'gewone' stuur is eigenlijk simpelweg beter. Meer controle over de fiets. Lijkt me voor de veiligheid ook niet slecht. Het minieme aero voordeel weegt daar dus niet tegen op.


Marc Soler, a rider in Tadej Pogacar's UAE Team Emirates, and his dad were seen by Spanish police meeting José “Pepe” Martí, a central figure in the darkest period in cycling's history and who is serving a 15-year ban @Lawton_Times on a curious episode 🔽 thetimes.com/sport/cycling/…




Paul Seixas is staying with Decathlon CMA CGM The early 2026 results make it clear why ditching for UAE would be a massive mistake. In a peloton dominated by superteams, being the leader on a surging French powerhouse beats being a high-end domestique or heir-in-waiting at UAE, where Pogačar reigns supreme alongside Almeida, del Toro, and others. Seixas would slot in as support — not the sun around which everything orbits. At Decathlon, he’s the French Renaissance: the generational talent France has craved since Hinault, ready to chase yellow on a proudly French team in the country’s ultimate sporting event, the Tour de France. The proof is in the 2026 results — Decathlon is on an upward trajectory: Seixas just demolished the Faun-Ardèche Classic (a major French race) with a stunning 41km+ solo after dropping Matteo Jorgenson, crossing the line 1:48 with numbers matching Pog’s best climbing efforts. Then at Strade Bianche, he took a sensational 2nd behind Pogačar — dropping Isaac del Toro on the brutal final climb to Siena (Sante Caterina ramp) while holding off the chaos, finishing just 1:00 back after Pog’s long solo attack. The team backed him brilliantly, with riders like Labrosse and Lapeira also in the mix. These aren’t flukes — they’re signs of a team built to support a superstar’s independent GC ambitions. Decathlon’s momentum from prior years (top-10 UCI finishes, rising budgets with CMA CGM’s title push targeting elite levels) is accelerating with Seixas as the catalyst. His exploits are already drawing massive global hype and corporate eyes. The marketing potential to be a part of a French sporting renaissance will bring a flood of sponsorship dollars. A French champion, on a French team, bringing France a long over due Tour de France champion! It’s leadership, legacy, and national pride over being a replacement cog. Seixas is building the empire where he’s the star, not chasing someone else’s shadow. 🇫🇷🚴♂️ #PaulSeixas #DecathlonCMACGM #FrenchCycling #TourDeFrance #StradeBianche #Cycling
