    Paul Seixas: Tour de France Winner 2031

    He's being tremendous in this early season, but lets not get ahead of ourselves. He's 19. He's never done a GT. He is untested in long climbs. He's not fighting for a GT GC win this year. No way. It's too soon. It'd be great seeing him in the Tour soon though.

    Teams & Riders Jonas Vingegaard thread: Love in Iberia

    Vingegaard is right riding the Giro. Since Pogacar isn't there, Vingegaard is the clear and absolute favorite to win it. If he is healthy, he absolutely should not waste this chance to win a GT and complete the Grand Slam. And then he goes to the Tour. Who knows what happens there... This is...

    UAE Tour 2026, February 16-22

    He keeps thinking he's back to his 2024 Tour climbing shape, but something is missing.

    Volta a la Comunitat Valenciana 2026, February 4-8

    What are you talking about? There's nothing to be done in today's stage GC wise. Remco had the best legs yesterday and made it count. He achieved victory yesterday.

    To what extent do you support a team?

    I don't really care for teams. They're always changing names and kits because of the sponsors, which makes it too hard to even start caring year on year. I care about riders and races.

    World Championship 2025: Men’s ITT, September 21

    One can hope he takes a crack at it soon.

    Massive result for Del Toro.

    World Championship 2025: Men’s ITT, September 21

    Remco is a prodigy and an absolute beast in the Flats.

    GC Power Ranking

    The 2025 GTs are done, so these would be my picks for the 2026 GC power ranking: 1) Pogacar 2) Vingegaard 3) Almeida 4) Remco 5) Lipowitz 6) Roglic 7) Del Toro 8) Carapaz 9) Onley 10) Felix Gall The top6 are a lock (doubtful between Almeida and Remco), Del Toro and Carapaz seem right, but then...

    João Almeida - Bota Lume

    If there isn't a Pogacar, Vingegaard or a super Remco in the race, João Almeida might still be the favourite. Regardless, if you're competing for at least podium in a GT, your team has to back you up.

    Vuelta a España Vuelta 2025, stage 20: Robledo de Chavela - Bola del Mundo - Puerto de Navacerrada (164.8 km)

    Amazing Vingegaard. He made it clear that he is a level above all else. Even tired, he's clearly the strongest overall in 3 week races, other than Pogacar. Victory well deserved. Great job by João Almeida. He's a fantastic domestique but he has a lot to learn and evolve if he ever wants to win...

    Vuelta a España Vuelta a España 2025, Stage 19: Rueda - Guijuelo (161.9 km)

    Visma is not the best Team in the world for nothing. Great job by Visma and Vingegaard. They deserve the win.

    Vuelta a España Vuelta a España 2025, Stage 16: Poio/Poyo – Castro de Herville/Erville (167.9k)

    This is getting out of hand. It's absolutely unacceptable to have this twice in a GT. Bilbao was already bad, but this is even worse because this is a mountain finish. The spanish police have to work harder to disband these protests.

    Vuelta a España Angliru climbing time

    In 2023 the Angliru was lead by Bahrain and Visma. Multiple riders pulling. In 2025 it was all UAE, and Almeida pulled all the way from 6km to the top.

    Teams & Riders Tadej Pogačar discussion thread

    Amazing job by Pollitt in that stage and in the whole Tour really.
