2023 Tour de France will likely have Jai Hindley - "I'm really keen to do it"
CyclingSunday, 10 July 2022 at 10:00
Jai Hindley has won the 2022 Giro d'Italia, his fifth Grand Tour of a so far world-class career, but is yet to make his debut in the Tour de France. In 2023 however, that is likely to change.
"It's really hard to manage that physical load … next year I'd really like to go to the Tour," he said in an interview with ABC News. "Whether that be helping someone else in the team or going for the result myself, then so be it.
The Australian will be racing the Vuelta a España this August but has his sights on the future afterwards, with a presence in the Wollongong World championships being a priority, but also with 2023 already in mind where he plans on racing the Grand Boucle for the first time.
In case he races the Giro d'Italia next year, he would do so with the number 1 and as the defending champion. At the Tour de France though, he doesn't put the same pressure on the table: "But I'd really like to go and just take in the whole experience and learn as much as I can, and also see what I can do at that highest level of cycling because it is the pinnacle of our sport … I've never done it before but I'm really keen to do it."

- Like Trump taking out Maduro, that was the easy part, now what’s the plan and will everyone follow?Mistermaumau11-01-2026
- I don’t know what the pay cut explains except that his recent results just weren’t that impressive for a team like Visma, he might have understood he’d possibly gain more from them long-term than the salary cut cost him. His previous salary was probably partly based on a receding Tour win with the team that « offered the structure » before they got access to big money. Don’t think it’s as simple as you hope.Mistermaumau11-01-2026

- I would like to say one thing to Rúben Silva, the author of the article: "Jonas prefers peace and quiet to money compared to Tadej Pogacar who prefers evading taxes!?!? F*** you Rúben Silva!!! Your f***** stupid and mean, and you know nothing about Tadej. Capish? Pogi is one of the most humble guys, he takes care of his cyclists on his team, he jokes a lot, he buys his team presents, he has his own Pogi team to help young cyclists (they get everything, the complete cycling kit and bike) for free. He loves his girl Urska and he's enjoying life. So Rúben Silva, what else can I say... "shut the f**k up!!!NikkoNicco11-01-2026
- Look I also understand Jonas... do with your money what you like. Maybe he's investing in property and houses...and if he will do it smart, he will make money. That's great, he's thinking about his and his family's future, but the f**ker Ruben Silva made Pogi look like he's a greedy and materialistic person. Shame on him.NikkoNicco11-01-2026
- Ruben Silva is reporting what Brian Holm said, and that gives us the chance to comment on it. But the article is already out of date, with the news of Jonas investing a lot of his money in properties for himself and extended family in Denmark. A sensible path, but he would have a financial advisor like the other top cyclists.Hills3311-01-2026
- Yes, they're implying that the angelic Vingegaard is all home, family and church, versus the diabolical Pogacar, all sex, drugs, and rock and roll, greedy for money and luxury 😂😂😂 Shameful journalism. The truth is that both of them, each in their own way, lead simple lives and are manically dedicated to their work.
maria2024202411-01-2026 - What terrible things it says that someone went to live in Monaco on the advice of his manager when he was a teenager (18)? A cyclist's career is short; they have to accumulate as much as possible. Obviously, when Tadej was a teen, he had no idea he was going to earn a lot. Don't worry, when his career ends, he'll return to his country, paying taxes on his future investments (already he is doing that). P.S.: And many people, seeing the corrupt and inept European bureaucrats who govern us, squandering our work (money), are very keen to go to a tax haven.maria2024202411-01-2026
