Although Tadej Pogacar won't be present for UAE Team Emirates in their Liege-Bastogne-Liege prelude at La Fleche Wallonne, the team can boast a number of high-profile names and potential dark horses for victory.
Headlined by the runner-up at the Amstel Gold Race last weekend, Marc Hirschi, UAE Team Emirates also have the likes of Portuguese Grand Tour specialist, Joao Almeida and the ultra-talented Spaniard, Juan Ayuso, there is a high possibility that UAE could upset the applecart and take a victory.

- If that's true, then it is very unfortunate. At least, he tried to cool off. His cool off strategy turned out to be fatal.

- As an Aussie residing in Melbourne, it would be incredible to have Pogacar, Vingegaard, Roglic, Evenepoel, etc. time trialling down Beach Road (and claiming all the KOMs along the way), and up the Dandenongs and the three peaks... but come on, let's be realistic here! The logistics and expenses would make it way too hard and the audience/market in Australia is small (only one of my colleagues cycles to work in a workplace with hundreds of staff and the vast majority of Aussies simply do not care about cycling, let alone any grand tours). If anything, the organisers might do better to take it to the States if they want a bigger audience / increase viewership.Pogboom15-05-2025
- You don't even know what happened and you're somehow claiming the justice system got it wrong? On what grounds exactly are you making such claims? There was clear CCTV footage of the incident. It was a tragic accident caused by a heated argument (about kitchen cabinets believe it or not...) with Rohan wanting to leave the situation to cool off. There are two children to think about too - throwing the dad in jail for an accident is not the right way to handle this situation. Moreover, for the rest of his life, Rohan will know that his children will always have the thought in the back of their minds that "daddy killed mummy" - I think that is way worse than a few years in jail.Pogboom15-05-2025

- I don't think having caused a person to die and having that on your conscience for the rest of your life is getting off scott free. Guilt is a dreadful thing to have on your conscience. It is there dragging you down untill you take your last breath. That hanging over you for the rest of your life is far worse than a jail sentence.Cyclingsbestfan15-05-2025

- He completely got off scott free. Celebrities always get a lot of leniency in term of punishment. Hunter Biden also got off. Jared Kushner's dad got pardoned. Bill Cosby walked free. A normal person would be languishing in jail.abstractengineer15-05-2025
- This article shows a lot of what’s wrong in today’s communication « capitalism » Using one rider in a title to introduce a story about another, using media to influence deal-making, trying to create attention pre-results, etc. Just go get your podium and THEN use your platform.Jumpyjohn15-05-2025
