Lotto–Soudal rider Arnaud De Lie won the third stage of the Tour de Wallonie. He defeated Biniam Girmay in the sprint to secure the stage victory.
A group of twenty riders, including Biniam Girmay, tried to create some gap early in the stage but remained unsuccessful . But after the first intermediate sprint, some riders including Matteo Trentin, Jorge Arcas, Ben Healy, Casper Pedersen, Jake Stewart, Ivo Oliveira, and Stan Van Tricht, managed to distance themselves from the peloton.
They enjoyed the lead of three minutes for some time, but the peloton was catching up. Lead decreased to 1 minute 60 kilometers before the finish line. In the final kilometers, the peloton caught them, and it was sprint time. Kévin Vauquelin launched an early attack but couldn’t hold the lead for a long time. De Lie won the sprint and secured the victory. Girmay tried to counter De Lie but failed and secured silver. Axel Laurance finished third. Robert Stannard is the overall leader in the GC.

- 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

- Hey, find the logic and connection in these two things. First Yates says he is "grateful" to Visma and has been thinking about retirement for a long time??? ... and at the same time he left his team in the dark where they can't bring in a replacement now. Is that how he thanks his team? Don't insult my intelligence. My uncle once told me, "I don't know what's the true, but what the newspapers publish, I know that isn't true." ...That means one less option. Now apply that to the Yates case and you can put the Visma and Yates explanation in the trash and continue investigating the real reason.NikkoNicco11-01-2026
