Volta a Portugal: Scott McGill wins stage one with dominant sprint win
CyclingFriday, 05 August 2022 at 18:15
Stage one of the Volta a Portugal saw the sprinters have their chance today, with Wildlife Generation Pro Cycling's Scott McGill storming to the win.
A late attack by two riders from Human Powered Health threatened to take the win, with Joey Rosskopf hanging on in front until two kilometers to go. A crash split the bunch then, but the fast men were towards the front and the dash to the line saw Scott McGill take the stage win.
He beat Oliver Rees and Mauricio Moreira to take the first road stage win, whilst Rafael Reis arrived safely in the peloton to keep the yellow jersey.

- If there is something, knowing cycling it will only come out in a decade. Another oddity is the money angle. Had he wanted to, he could probably have arranged to earn more in the next 2 years than he did in the past.Mistermaumau10-01-2026
- And yet, so many who get money get worried about it so obviously it’s not easy for everyone.Mistermaumau10-01-2026
- Maybe Simon's close bond with his brother made his position untenable, for instance if Visma were planning an unwelcome surprise for UAE.Hills3310-01-2026
- You forgot the tax angle which says quite a lot about people who are already well set up. And he’s got rid of the money hasn’t he, or rather invested it long-term for his family, people who like money spend differently.Mistermaumau10-01-2026

Front24210-01-2026 - Knowing even less about Jonas than they do about Tadej, journalists seem determined to emphasise the differences between them. They all pepper their articles about Jonas with the words family, quiet and candid. Then they have to make Tadej sound the opposite. If Tadej started a family they would be confused.Hills3310-01-2026
- He hung on there, in the tour, hell either sink or swim, let's hope the latter!
leedorney10-01-2026 - I thought per the other article he wasn’t interested in money? this is not an anti Jonas statement. the person interviewed in the other article, Brian Holm, did a real piece on Tadej. and the insinuation of the authors is less than pleasant.mij10-01-2026
