First rumoured a few weeks ago, talk of Jonas Vingegaard heading to the Giro d'Italia in 2025 has been gaining momentum in recent days, to the point that it seems that it will be a reality. If that happens, it will the Dane's first time ever competing in the fight for the Maglia Rosa.
The Team Visma | Lease a Bike superstar has never participated in the Corsa Rosa, but his interest in it has grown considerably since Tadej Pogacar set out to race (and win) the Giro d'Italia - Tour de France double in 2024. Now, as noted by La Gazzetta dello Sport's journalist, Ciro Scognamiglio, the operation has begun to be seriously considered within the Dutch team.
"Jonas Vingegaard is interested in Giro d'Italia 2025 participation," begins the well respected Italian reporter. "The option will be studied this autumn with Team Visma | Lease a Bike according to our sources."
Jonas Vingegaard will no longer compete until the 2025 season. In the meantime, the Dane will be looking to organize the best possible schedule to make his presence in both the Giro d'Italia and the Tour de France next season a reality. Over the course of his career, Vingegaard has participated 4 times in the Tour de France, coming out victorious in 2 of them (2022 and 2023) and 2 times in the Vuelta a Espana. But he has never tried the roads and hard climbs of a Giro d'Italia, where Tadej Pogacar is rumoured to be returning to defend his crown next year.
There are still several months to go, but the 2025 season is already getting very, very interesting. To enjoy a double showdown between Jonas Vingegaard and Tadej Pogacar in two grand tours in the same year will be an event that could mark two completely historic editions of the Giro d'Italia and Tour de France.

- You continue to platform these two cheats. With that in mind I can no longer use your site. I know my leaving means little, but, sometimes you have to take a stand. See ya!DJ21-12-2024
- Look at what Froome’s won since his last TdF, stop denying there is still more than possible one outcome to the future.Mistermaumau21-12-2024

- Exactly. Remco won 3 WT races/stages last year compared to Pogocar's 19. Remco's single stage win in last years TdF earned him a meager 12 seconds over Pogocar who shellac'd him by 9 minutes in GC.Sweep21-12-2024
- Fortunately and as you point out, more than one strategy is possible and worth trying and I’m sure all concerned riders are well informed and counselled on this subject and don’t need such basic personal advice through media from an outsider.Mistermaumau21-12-2024
- The main SPOTY award is "decided" by public vote but the BBC "expert panel" decide who you can choose from, that choice has an equal split of genders and is focussed on the sports BBC show and a disabled athlete. Oh yea the ubiquitous "Pub Games" candidate there too, Darts and Snooker are not sports. The other awards are decided by the "Expert Panel" again it's about the sports BBC show, cycling has had it. Cav got his for his years and achievements in the sport, not just that 35th TDF win. Unless the BBC get access to Pro Cycling it will never feature "adequately" on SPOTYslappers6621-12-2024
- Ahhh..... you have to understand the "strange" diversity concepts of the BBCslappers6621-12-2024
- Avoiding him is a good strategy, you get more wins and then you can compete in the TDF relatively relaxed. Pit yourself against Pogi and not only there will be no wins, it will be considerable mental setbackabstractengineer21-12-2024
