Pogacar to defend Tour de France and world title on ambitious 2025 program

Hindustan Times  

Tadej Pogacar insisted on Tuesday he would not ease off after a record-breaking 2024, declaring he was hungry for more success with a plethora of one-day classics and two Grand Tours on the 2025 menu. HT Image The 26-year-old Slovenian dominated the 2024 season winning two one-day monuments, the Italian Giro, the Tour de France and the world title on his way to 25 wins in total for the year. "What's certain is that he won't be doing the three big Tours next year," Team UAE sports director Joxean Fernandez Matxin said. "I'd like to race all three Tours one day but there are 30 riders in the team you know, and I can't race everything," Pogacar said. Everything went super smoothly, I managed to be in great shape in every race," said Pogacar who at only 26 years old, feels "still young" and believes he can "progress", particularly on the "small details".
