"This was a great day for us, I was confident I could win" - Christophe Laporte on his Tour of Denmark victory
Cycling
Christophe Laporte won the Tour of Denmark. He secured the last stage and gained enough bonus seconds to pass Magnus Sheffield in the general classification.
"This was a great day for us," Laporte said. He was confident in his teammate's ability, and they worked hard to prove him right. “After the chase, I was dropped in a good position. The team was fantastic. There was a steep climb before the line, but I was confident I could win," said Laporte.
However, he won’t get much time to celebrate his victory as the Frenchman will participate in Bemer Cyclassics alongside his leader Wout Van Aert. "I'm going to enjoy it now, and tomorrow we'll go for it again in Hamburg," Laporte concluded.

- This is a phenomenal course design. I do wish that they'd stretch these tours for the women to at least 2 weeks.RidesHills03-11-2026
- This is an amazing route, honestly. Let's hope that it attracts riders to make it a compelling and competitive race. Side bar amusement: going to Slovenia and passing pretty close to Pogačar's house. I wonder if they were tempting him to get all 3 jerseys at once after winning the Tour and Vuelta. After all, only a very few have ever had all three at the same time (Froome being the last).RidesHills03-11-2026

- A great route, much more exciting than the Tour de France. Monte Livata is an interesting one, because they experimented with it at the 2026 Baby Giro, and it was fantastic. 4 km at 10%, then 10 km at 6.5% made for a great spectacle. The stage 16 is horrible. Montaner is also used in the U23s, in Giro del BelvedereRafionain-Glas03-11-2026
- I remember when Mark went through that. He was really experiencing lows and thought about quiting many times. It took him a long time to recover. I, like many others were overjoyed when he came back. I hope Lafay has been tested. I wish him the best.Paggss03-11-2026
