Two men have been sentenced to four years in prison in France for stealing luxury items. Among them, a watch from Tadej Pogacar during the last edition of Paris-Nice.
According to Mundo Deportivo, two men, aged 32 and 37, were sentenced on Tuesday to four years in prison and a fine of 50,000 euros per head for the robberies.
The robberies took place before the last stage of the Paris-Nice race. According to the police, the thieves broke into the UAE Team Emirates hotel in Valbonne and stole the Richard Mille watch (team sponsor) worth an estimated 165,000 euros.
According to Nice-Matin, the two convicted thieves also stole a safe containing two other watches from a couple. They also allegedly stole a watch worth 300,000 euros from F1 driver Charles Lecrerc by pulling it straight off his wrist.

- It's not a big blow for Pogacar. Today, Pogacar relies on a close, increasingly Slovenian circle of experts. Among them, the central figure is his longtime friend Ziga Jerman, who took on the role of masseur in 2025. Jerman has known Pogačar since before his global fame, when they cycled together at the Ljubljana club Rog, so Elguezabal’s departure does not pose a threat for Pogi but rather marks the end of a very successful chapter. UAE will have to fill the gap in its professional staff, but for Pogi, this departure will not play an important role.NikkoNicco04-12-2025
- OK, enough of this BS. No one went to college or university from kindergarten. First, Remco must graduate from high school with excellent results to meet with the professor Pogacar in university and to be in same room with him. But you see, Pogi the Great also has a PhD (doctorate in cycling). In 2026, I want to see that success from Remco in high school, because I haven't seen it in these 7 years.NikkoNicco04-12-2025
