Of the big four, it seems that it is
Primoz Roglic who has drawn the shortest match in the first week of
Tour de France. The Slovenian four-time Grand tour winner made a much discussed move from Visma | Lease a Bike to Bora - hansgrohe (now
Red Bull - BORA - hansgrohe) last winter and half a year later, it seems like some things still need to click.
It's not the first time in 2024 that
doubts about Roglic's level arise. Journalist
Thijs Zonneveld already noticed things were slightly different at Critérium du Dauphiné. Roglic managed to win the race only with a great effort after not being able to follow Matteo Jorgenson on the final stage. "We talked about Roglic being so sharp, so thin, in the Dauphiné," Zonneveld says in his
In het Wiel podcast.
