With BORA - hansgrohe revealing their provisional lineup for the 2024 Tour de France, Primoz Roglic is more confident than ever in his hopes of taking that so far elusive Maillot Jaune.
“I believe that I can win the Tour de France," Roglic says at the BORA - hansgrohe team press conference according to RTV Slo. “We should not be afraid of the final outcome, but we should do our best. If we do whatever it takes, we can be happy at the end. For me, the Tour de France is the icing on the cake, but it is not an obsession.”
Roglic is set to be supported in his quest by an all-star BORA - hansgrohe lineup as the bring out all the big guns, including Jai Hindley, Aleksandr Vlasov, Nico Denz and Daniel Martinez. “We opt for the strategy of just one leader,” says sports director Rolf Aldag. “If Vlasov is fifth, we can use him tactically, but we are not going to reveal all our plans publicly now. We have only one goal and one leader. We are going without a sprinter and have not set any additional goals.”
“Primož creates positive pressure on the team to succeed and win,” he concludes. “He has already won several Grand Tours and is looking at the long term. If we do this wisely and support him well, Hindley and Vlasov, who are much younger, will also grow. They are certainly not going to be typical servants.”

- I think you overestimate scientific knowledge and for sure the spreading of it. There are huge numbers of people in similar situations, if there were an easy solution somebody would be making big money out of it. Nerve pain can have many complex origins or be due to complex combinations of reasons. Even if you discover a reason there is not always a solution. Migraines haven’t been solved either. I have had lower back/hip nerve pains on and off for over 30 years, no kind of doctor has ever found a way to reduce, prevent or solve the problem. It may just be that some people are born with nerves that are too short or get twisted out of position during certain movements.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
- Amazing ride by her and very promising for her future. On a side note, it’s a bit worrying all these wins riders have after emotional moments in their lives, someone will come up with emotional doping at some point. Maybe give them fake news just before a big race to get hormones pumping.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
