Volta a Catalunya 2024 Final GC Standings: Tadej Pogacar dominates in destructive display, Landa & Bernal complete overall podium
CyclingSunday, 24 March 2024 at 14:45
Tadej Pogacar has won the 2024 Volta a Catalunya in a manner that will surely have sent warning signs throughout the peloton to anyone with hopes of competing against the Slovenian in the coming months.
In the end, after making it a fourth stage win with a powerful sprint from a reduced bunch on the final day of racing, Pogacar actually increased his lead in the overall classification to 3:41 from his nearest rival, Mikel Landa. Egan Bernal completed the podium in an equally impressive display - for different reasons - 5:03 down on the UAE Team Emirates leader.
With just 37 seconds separating the next six riders, things were incredibly close behind the podium as Lorenzo Fortunato completed the top-10.

- what a pity... he could have easily won the stage. He stopped his attack.
maria2024202422-05-2025 - Poor decision to let Primoz come back. Should have tried to put time into him.
Front24222-05-2025 - You're so wrong ! Froome needs to go away!frieders322-05-2025
- Shows a lot of class for such a young guyCrashjames22-05-2025
- Think how strong the team could be without Froome consuming all that money with nil to show for it. Sad. Selfish on his part tbhCrashjames22-05-2025
- Tom Dumoulin said out loud what many people were already thinking.
santiagobenites21-05-2025 - He’s also taking the place and money of many more deserving (and just as useful) riders (who’d significantly reduce costs). Only thing CF does for IPT is help them stay relevant for discussion because there’s no such thing as bad publicity if you don’t have a reputation to consider.Mistermaumau21-05-2025
- We’ll see. I’m still trying to figure out how GT cycling went from being a climbing defined event to a 3 week event around a couple of short TTs. All the contenders more or less cancel each other climbing and then grow huge (as the media defines the time spans now) gaps when riding on bikes not made for GTs, quite ironic really.Mistermaumau21-05-2025
- When you read this you get the impression they ride without radios or don’t have a common language for communication.Mistermaumau21-05-2025
- That was a very nice ride by Richard Carapaz. His team set him up perfectly for that attack.santiagobenites21-05-2025
