Stage 2
Lennert van Eetvelt was a DNS at the start of the day, with his Lotto-Intermarche team reporting lingering effects from a Strade Bianche crash
On the stage itself, Martin Marcellusi was involved in a scary moment as he somersaulted off-road and down an embankment. Thankfully though, he managed to get back on his bike finish the stage.
Then in the gravel finale, the likes of Thymen Arensman, Matteo Jorgenson and Carlos Samudio were among the riders to slide out painfully.
Stage 3
Nothing to note.
Stage 4
Alpecin-Premier Tech's Michael Gogl crashed whilst attempting to put on a rain jacket. The incident was then immediately made much scarier as a TV motorbike following behind went straight over him. Thankfully, he was able to get back on his bike and finish the stage.

Fernando Gaviria did not finish the stage whilst Xandro Meurisse and Ilan van Wilder were both DNS on the day. Giovanni Aleotti crashed during the stage.

Corbin Strong did not start the stage whilst Albert Torres, Sjoerd Bax and Rémy Rochas all failed to finish it. Javier Romo and UAE's Kevin Vermaerke also crashed during the stage, bringing meaningful consequences mainly to the latter, who rode into a fence during the stage.
Stage 7
The DNS of Andreas Kron was followed by five further DNFs on the final day as Samuel Fernandez, Danny van Poppel, Gianni Moscon, Cedric Beullens and Mattia Stenico all stepped off.
There was also a nasty crash in the finale which saw both Jasper Philipsen and Paul Magnier crash out of sprint contention.

- disagreed. in this year's tdf he was unable to ride away from the young guns in the stages before his crash. there were several riders at least close to, if not on, his level in the second week: seixas, remco, del toro, lipo. next year jonas is a year older and the younger riders gained a year of experience and strength. if you then try to skip part of the high altitude training ... i doubt that jonas will make the podium at tdf 27. for sure he is not the favourite for runner up. he will be in the mix, yes. but not THE favourite for 2nd place.Ketterechts15-11-2026
- That means you're Austrian, like Arnold Schwarzenegger. He was born close to Gradc, very close to Maribor. We used to do a lot of shopping in Gradc in the 70's and 80's, when Slovenia was still a part of communist Yugoslavia. Today we have good relationships with the Austrians. Many Slovenians are working there.PogiSloFans15-11-2026
- headline criticism agreed. but otherwise he certainly has a point. you can negotiate extra perks if you are way above he rest ... however, these times have long gone ...Ketterechts15-11-2026
- WTF is Pogi's hater Zonneveld talking about??? He was against Pogi waving to Slovenian fans from an organisation car as fans caught a glimpse of Pogi at the European Championships in Slovenia. The S.O.B. couldn't resist poking fun at his attention-grabbing appearance. What Zonneveld says has no relevance.PogiSloFans15-11-2026

- The greatest ever is a crazy claim. But in discussions about sport in our local media, among people with no particular interest in cycling, he has been the first person they've thought of when giving examples of exceptional athletes.Hills3315-11-2026

- Raise thine hand if the money you have made for retirement slips away on poor investments.Most of us will outlive our financial comforts because we don't have the financial acumen to ensure a comfortable lifelong retirement and that is a statistical fact not my opinion.Many millionaires have pissed their money away or had it taken away by so called conniving "financial advisors".The world of wealth is a dangerous place that most of us will never experience nor appreciate.
Brucegel15-11-2026 - You are interested in Pogi for one reason only, you feel like you are somehow related because you share some vague geographical identity. Other than that you have very little interest in cycling as all your posts show, if it can’t be connected to Pogi you have nothing to post. That said, recent activity here shows we are attracting quite a crowd from his region.Jumpyjohn15-11-2026
- From knowing past cycling stars with shops I can only say, think it through. Not only is it mundane after a while but it really doesn’t take you out of the limelight, in the end you’ll be trying to stay away from the place yourself whilst all your fans keep coming for you.Jumpyjohn15-11-2026
