Pogacar Banned from Racing Until 2027

UAE team chief Mauro Gianetti has banned Tadej Pogacar from competing until 2027 despite the cyclist's desire to defend his European Championship title this Sunday.

UAE team has firmly prohibited Tadej Pogacar from participating in cycling competitions until 2027, overriding his wish to defend his European Championship title five weeks after suffering a broken collarbone and vertebra in the Vuelta a España.

The decision, which came despite pressure from social media and the surgeon's approval, reflects UAE's cautious approach with their seven million euros per year cyclist, considered the best of the century. rouesnews.click
