Experience and fresh talent: Primož Roglič leads team at the Tour de France
Primož Roglič headlines our roster for the the Tour de France 2025. A four-time Vuelta winner and Giro d’Italia champion, Roglič is one of the most successful Grand Tour riders of his generation.www.redbullborahansgrohe.com
The plan is hence to get all three more GC orientated riders to reach the hills. For that i agree the team is good. Alex should peak in second half of the Tour and all in all they say all are extremely well prepared. I like the fact a lot of reconnaissance and analysing was involved, especially if that means having Rogla well positioned on exposed sections.
Injuries, current form, strategy ...
Fight for the victory in the Tour or winning the Tour against pogacar and vingegaard is not a realistic plan. Nevertheless, crashes happens, and if those two crash, Roglic have a chance of winning the Tour, but it in normal conditions, Roglic can't go against them, like we saw last year in the mountain stages of the Tour before the crash of roglic.
