Belgian classics specialist Jasper Stuyven is set to contest both the Giro d'Italia and the Tour de France in 2023, making it the first year in his career that he will ride multiple Grand Tours.
A Tour de France regular, Stuyven has ridden six of the last seven editions of the race. A stage win is still eluding him however, in fact, Stuyven has only managed to pick a single Grand Tour stage win in his 9 career three-week stage races, coming in the 2015 Vuelta a Espana, something he hopes to improve upon.
Despite picking up victories at Milan–San Remo, Omloop Het Nieuwsblad and Kuurne–Brussels–Kuurne the 30-year-old Belgian has recently expressed his desire to become a more consistent winner. “I’m still hunting for a stage victory at the Tour de France," he said. "that combined with another classic win would be would be great."

- But, as was proven by ... in 2025 and others before, there’s always a way. Feel free to guess who I didn’t type outMistermaumau11-01-2026

- Not exactly a recent development, been known in elite sports for decades and cycling since years : « Approximately one in five professional cycling athletes will eventually develop a sport-related vascular problem. However, detecting such flow limitation is a diagnostic challenge as the sensitivity of the currently available standard diagnostic tools is limited. «Mistermaumau11-01-2026
- Unfortunately, that is sounding more and more like a plausible explanation to this situation.
santiagobenites11-01-2026 - You can have 100 cards but none of the cards will survive an attack by Pogi or MVDP from 80-100k outabstractengineer11-01-2026
- it is too simple to base improvement on points alone. Quick-Step lost a lot of points but might gain more wins and are shifting their focus. Juan Ayuso might be addition by subtraction. and Ineos picked up a lot of points. Onley gets a boatload for being 4th in the Tour. but who’s racing for 4th place?!?!?mij11-01-2026
- All very sad. But you seem to be backing the journalists in generally demonising Tadej and canonising Jonas. This article is interesting though, and suggests Jonas is making very good financial decisions, acquiring luxury homes that he and his family are enjoying living in, and staying near family (also now in luxury homes) who can help with the kids. Sounds like a great lifestyle, and not a basis for critising Pog's decisions.Hills3311-01-2026
- Anyone who thinks the Giro is a training camp for the Tour, for Vingegaard, is not right in the head. First of all, he is not Pogacar and secondly, UAE will send almost A team to make Jonas life miserable and make the race difficult. If the danish fisherman competes in Giro, his chances drop from 20 to 2 percent. I also read some foolish statements that the 2026 Tour is against Pogi and I'm dying of laughter. 2026 is the most ideal Tour that Pogi will ever ride. Not a single stage is difficult except 20st. Everything else is made for UAE to control. Every mountain stage has 30-40km of easy terrain before the last climb.NikkoNicco11-01-2026
- it doesn’t matter what Jonas is doing with the houses, the article is trash. and the fact that he is buying houses in Denmark with no criticism makes everyone’s point all the stronger. it is Tadej’s life. he isn’t breaking the law. he can live where he wishes how he wishes. and his “side” isn’t quoted, which especially irks me. it makes it sound as if he is living in Monaco just to cheat taxes. maybe he is there because it is an ideal training base year round. or any other number or reasons. and, it happens to be a good financial decision.mij11-01-2026
