OFFICIAL: Tadej Pogacar confirmed at 2024 Giro d'Italia - UAE Team Emirates' 8 features Rafal Majka and Juan Sebastián Molano
CyclingTuesday, 30 April 2024 at 13:24
UAE Team Emirates' lineup for the Giro d'Italia was reported to have been decided a week ago already, but only today does the Emirati team confirm their '8' for the first Grand Tour of the season. As expected, Tadej Pogacar leads the team on a charge to win the race.
He will be supported by a team made up of Rafal Majka, Felix Grossscartner and Domen Novak who will be his main domestiques in the many long mountain stages that the race presents.
Alongside Majka who was a key domestique before the team's recent signing of a flurry of superstars in recent years, Pogacar's loyal domestiques for the flat and hilly days Mikke Bjerg and Vegard Stake Laengen will also be present as road captains.

The team focuses on it's success at the Tour de France, so much so that despite Pogacar's presence, the team still gave way for Juan Sebastián Molano to have the opportunity to seek success in the sprints, alongside his leadout men Rui Oliveira - the duo worked their way towards a stage win at last year's Vuelta a España.

- It's not a big blow for Pogacar. Today, Pogacar relies on a close, increasingly Slovenian circle of experts. Among them, the central figure is his longtime friend Ziga Jerman, who took on the role of masseur in 2025. Jerman has known Pogačar since before his global fame, when they cycled together at the Ljubljana club Rog, so Elguezabal’s departure does not pose a threat for Pogi but rather marks the end of a very successful chapter. UAE will have to fill the gap in its professional staff, but for Pogi, this departure will not play an important role.NikkoNicco04-12-2025
- OK, enough of this BS. No one went to college or university from kindergarten. First, Remco must graduate from high school with excellent results to meet with the professor Pogacar in university and to be in same room with him. But you see, Pogi the Great also has a PhD (doctorate in cycling). In 2026, I want to see that success from Remco in high school, because I haven't seen it in these 7 years.NikkoNicco04-12-2025
- calling him a star in cross before he beats MVDP or WVA is also a big stretch.mij04-12-2025
- I think once he's the undisputed leader in a race, he can become more consistent than he was in the past.Ride197404-12-2025
