A former three-time World Championship winner, Peter Sagan takes part in the men's elite road race for the final time in his career today. Whilst not considered one of the favourites, the Slovakian's army of fans will be hoping for a farewell success.
“The others must be nervous, not me. I expect everything to explode when we get into the local rounds. That's for sure. Then you should be ready," the 33-year-old told Wielerflits in a pre-race interview. “What are my chances today? We'll see. I'm going to do my best and then I'll see how it goes. Anything is possible, but it will be very difficult."

- any rider less than 25 whether they are really ready for the position of leadership of GT is probably not the case. I think Pogi himself suffered when he was defeated by Jonas in the TDF twice. But that would be the team's job to ensure support so that they can bounce back. It requires a team and time to get back up and win after getting knocked down.abstractengineer07-11-2026

- Surely the UCI and the race organisers have a responsibility to ensure the best medical care is available to riders when incidents like this happen. All very well pushing for global expansion but not so good if riders lives are put at risk because medical support is not up to scratch.Andy12306-11-2026
