OtherTuesday, 27 September 2022 at 15:43
As announced by the Movistar Team on social media, Carlos Verona will be part of the Spanish team in the next Gravel World Championship. Another member of the 'telephone' squad, Hayley Simmonds, will also be part of the test, in her case representing Great Britain.
Verona earned the position by winning the Hutchinson Raxo event in Lleida recently. The women's event will take place on October 8 (140 km) and the men's on Sunday 9 (194 km). Before the World Championships, Verona will participate this coming week in the Grinduro (Germany).

It has not been a normal season for Carlos Verona, who after showing all his potential in the Dauphiné by winning a stage, then raced as a domestique in the Tour de France and in the Vuelta a España, having very little freedom to move in search of a win (he was third at Chatel les portes du Soleil in the ninth stage of the Grande Boucle). Now, with the Gravel World Championship, he has the opportunity to finish the season in style.

- Just making the note that it’s actually closer to 120 because most of it is consumed in the first 4 hrs, not evenly across 5 hrs up until the finish.crharnishphd04-12-2025

- 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
