Primoz Roglic will not be present at the start of the fifteenth stage of the Tour de France on Sunday. The news was officially confirmed by Jumbo–Visma this morning via social media.
The Slovenian rider has decided to prioritize his recovery from injuries that he suffered in a crash in the cobbled stage to Wallers-Arenberg. “To allow my injuries to heal properly, we have decided that I won’t start today,” said Roglic.
Vingegaard was able to take the yellow jersey thanks to his support. “I’m proud of my contribution to the current standings, and I trust that the team will realize our yellow and green ambitions. Thanks to everybody for your great support,” concluded Roglic. He was 21st in GC, 33 minutes behind his teammate and overall leader, Vingegaard.
He will now refocus on the Vuelta a España where he has won the last three editions, and will once again be facing Tadej Pogacar - aswell as the likes of Giro d'Italia winner Jai Hindley and Richard Carapaz.

- great analysis thanks! appreciate you posting this. I didn't realize CX had a different standard for deviation. this is even more egregious it seems.mij10-11-2026
- As he isn't currently with Red Bull, I guess if he want to race for one more year he needs to find a team. He's 37 so this will be his last year I would guess, unless he wants to race for almost nothing like Froome did.awp10-11-2026
- I think some are making much ado about nothing. Even though Jonas is getting older, before his crash in the Tour, he looked like a solid 2nd all the way home. No one can really climb with Tadej until this year, Eric Mas showed himself which I think was a one off year for him and Paul Seixas has been able to be pretty close to him. Whatever stage race Jonas enters as long as Tadej is not there he is a favorite to win.awp10-11-2026
- Giro or not Giro, he won't win the Tour!MajorPayne10-11-2026
- Very true.awp10-11-2026
- Ciccone had a very strong end of season. Consistently attacking and livening up races. Hope he makes that last leap in progress and starts notching some significant wins. Great rider to watch.Occam10-11-2026
- Me too!!!!!Occam10-11-2026
- they can sign any 100 of top riders today but Pogi will win over Remco any time at the TDF unless something goes wrongabstractengineer10-11-2026
- the time for a GC rider to retire is when they cannot win stages, or have a significant level drop like from winner/podium into top 5/10 consistently. Roglic is still competitive and Froome raced even though he became pack fodder.abstractengineer10-11-2026
- He should be in a different team. It was detrimental. For them it does not matter if he does not develop. He should have gone to a team where they need him to succeed.abstractengineer10-11-2026
