Roglic is a special case. He may be Pogacar's biggest rival for a few more years.

Pogacar to ride Vuelta route with Morton hunting vampires confirmed.The good thing is cycling can offer side challenges while still winning the Tour in July.
Right now, the arguments against a Giro/Tour double are pretty simple. Competition is strong. Team isn't strong enough. And he hasn't even done any doubles yet.

domination? ;-)
What is Pogacar's program between now and Il Lombardia?
Could he do Tour of Britain?
Tbh that race could IMO grow a bit as a competitor to the Vuelta in terms of fall tuning up while growing some prestige of it's own.
You were very close!My shot on his program. Maybe he ride a 1 week race instead of Bretagne could be Deutschland Tour...
29.08 Bretagne Classic
19.09 Men Elite individual Time Trial
26.09 Men Elite Road Race
02.10 Giro dell'Emilia
06.10 Milano - Torino
07.10 Gran Piemonte
09.10 Il Lombardia
Don't think it should appeal to the clibmers, but I wish it were harder and more prestigious. I think it could be a great stage race for classics riders, more so than Benelux Tour.Agree.. But'll be hard to win that race. That race is so perfect for Van Art. I fell the calendar missing a great 1 week races for climbers as alternative for La Vuelta.

For climbers you can't compete with the Vuelta, so if they don't wanna do that there's kinda nothing except for Lombardia, so I would love some really hard climby one day races to happen during the Vuelta.
