Tadej Pogacar has written another piece of cycling history for himself and his nation this Sunday afternoon at the 2024 World Championships in Zurich. The Slovenian secured the road race victory and the Rainbow Jersey via an astonishing 100km attack.
Pre-race, much of the talk in regards to the Slovenian team was about how the superstar duo of Pogacar and Primoz Roglic would combine. As it turned out, Pogacar's race winning attack from so far out, negated any potential concerns over dual leadership. Nevertheless, Roglic spoke with immense delight in his post-race interview afterwards. 
“It’s amazing. I’m very proud to be part of this historic moment," the recent Vuelta a Espana champion reflected in conversation with Eurosport post-race. “I think he followed his instincts. That brings him a lot of victories. It was great. Normally we race against each other, now we race together. It's really nice to be part of this victory."
