Rigoberto Uran was one of the breakaway riders in the ninth stage of the Tour de France. Urán was still suffering from his fall on Saturday, and he could not maintain the lead and finished 34th on the stage.
"I tried to gain some time, and My feeling is not super good after I fell yesterday. The body has to recover. I tried, but the climb was tough. For me, the most important thing is to try every day," said Uran to Eurosport.
Despite his fall, he is optimistic about the future and wants to keep trying, "The morale is good. I know the Tour is tough. Yesterday I had a tough crash. But the most important thing is morale and trying every day. They are there for me every day, thank you for your support," concluded Uran. He currently holds 22nd position in GC, 9 minutes and 41 seconds behind overall leader Tadej Pogacar.

- 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
