There was little competition to battle with him, but Tadej Pogacar has returned to racing with a bang, winning the Slovenian time-trial national championships.
He rode the 15.7-kilometer course faster than in 2020 where he had already taken the win, but this year his victory had over 5 minutes of lead over the competition. Marko Pavlic and Anze Skok have completed the podium, 5:14 and 6:30 minutes behind.

- To do or not to do GC that is the question which he and his team does not know the answer while everyone else knows he is not a credible GC riderabstractengineer02-06-2025
- He was in the mix, just first time in a while he has the legs and uses them up with suicide moves etcjad2902-06-2025
- What a delusional bloke! Talking about fighting for the overall while being 13 minutes down the GC. It’s evident that his crash into the parked bus damaged not only his performance but brain as well. With Jonas as the best GT rider and other top GT GC riders absent, the gap was 13 minutes. Otherwise it would have been more than 20 minutes...
UltimateOpportunist02-06-2025 - That would make Wout worth about 9.4 million in gold as of today. His current salary is about 3.8 million, so write him a 5.6 million bonus check...awp02-06-2025

- I think they just underestimated Yates capability and by the time they realised it it was maybe considered too late or risky for either team to help the other go after him, bet they were both secretly praying he’d lose strength before the end but obviously they now can’t admit to bad tactics so they’re letting the rider take all the flack. In football you sack the manager not the player.Mistermaumau02-06-2025
- Yeah, I have a vague memory of something like that but it will happen for sure, no matter how much cycling fans can tolerate boredom, the fight for viewers dictates that the content becomes ever more juicy, and as it’s hard to insert cheerleaders or handicaps, this is one of the few options available, they'll just wait until Visma have less clout because all the nation sponsors are never going to be against anything that could monetise the sport.Mistermaumau02-06-2025
- Wout is awesome - he's had a horrible run of luck in the last year, but hasn't whined about it and had just been heads down, riding his heart out. Love him.Crashjames02-06-2025
- Also, aside the bad taste of ridiculing in public, not too sure of his parenting skills coz it sure sounds like he’s already decided his boy won’t have much career choice. if this is the kind of stuff he knows at 5.Mistermaumau02-06-2025
- 100%, Carapaz never took pull only attacked, he was more worried about making 100% sure Del Toro couldn't win than giving himself a chane to stay in the race, it was even worse than 2 french riders together and thats saying something.jad2902-06-2025
