UAE Tour
Category: 2.UWT
First Edition: 2019
A lot of racing has been developing in the last decade in the Middle East and the UAE Tour comes as a result of that investment in the sport which has also seen World Tour teams pop up in the last few years. The month of February sees several races in the region as many riders look for calm roads and good weather to start off their season.
The UAE Tour is the most recent World Tour event, having had it's first edition in 2019. It came off the back of the late Abu Dhabi Tour which ran from 2015 to 2018 in the area, and also with the race's iconic Jebel Hafeet which every year makes for the race's queen stage.

2026 - Isaac del Toro - Antonio Tiberi - Luke Plapp

- 18 broken bones. 78 crashes, among 30 rider per year is a lot. so for a rider over 15 seasons, they will break their bones 7-8 times and crash 38 times.abstractengineer04-11-2026
- i dont think he is ready ot win against the top 2 or the 2nd rung of evenepoel, del toro , Almeida. In the third week in the TDF he was very very defensive, no attacks. i think he was exhausted. right now he needs time not the brutal Giro or the intense TDF.abstractengineer04-11-2026

- his Roubaix win was amazing. not to take anything away from him - arguably one of MVDP's wins was at the expense of a WVA flat - but so many things need to line up to get one of these. He had a perfect race with fewer bike issues on an attritional course. And crazy strong as usual. Glad he got this done.mij04-11-2026
