Peter Sagan is said to be racing the E-MTB World championships this coming August, as he will be in Les Gets, France, for an off-road event in which he will be testing his capacities once again.
This was reported by Ciro Scognamiglio, and will likely see the Slovakian return to the off-road after he's done so this past May back in the USA where he rode Unbound Gravel in a training camp that has seen him return to competitive level for the second third of the season.
Currently the Slovakian is back in the USA in order to prepare for the final section of his season, however he is likely to return to Europe and race the E-MTB World, which were conquered by Tom Pidcock back in 2020 showing the current trend in the discipline. The race will take place on the 26th of August, two days before the Bretagne Classic where Sagan is scheduled to race.
The motivation to ride this event is said by Gazzetta dello Sport to also be influenced by Specialized, of which he is one of the main figures. Although the World championships seem too complicated for the TotalEnergies in his current form, Sagan will be building his form towards Wollongong, having a string of one-day races beforehand, all at World Tour level.

- 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
- calling him a star in cross before he beats MVDP or WVA is also a big stretch.mij04-12-2025
- I think once he's the undisputed leader in a race, he can become more consistent than he was in the past.Ride197404-12-2025
