  • Tronchon Wins a THRILLER in Elche de la Sierra! | Vuelta Stage 10 Breakdown
    2026/09/01
    The Vuelta enters a new chapter without Tadej Pogačar, and Stage 10 produces one of the closest finishes of the race so far. The 184.7km route from Alcaraz to Elche de la Sierra was a hilly one, with several climbs packed into the second half of the stage. With Pogačar now out of the race, UAE take a different approach, while the likes of Visma and Cofidis try to control the breakaway and set up their fast finishers. The break manages to stay clear deep into the finale, but the gap is steadily squeezed down as the road gets tougher. Attacks fly in the closing kilometres, with the escape finally reduced to just a handful of riders and the peloton closing fast behind them. It comes down to a frantic finish, with Bastien Tronchon and Magnus Cort fighting to stay away. They are caught right on the line, but Tronchon has done enough to take the victory, with Cort second and Thibau Nys third. We get into a dramatic day of racing, the battle between the breakaway and the peloton, the late attacks and an absolutely nail-biting finish in Elche de la Sierra. We also take a look ahead to the Men's Tour of Britain which has some of the fastest sprinters in the world lining up tomorrow for Stage 1. Pete Kennaugh, David Millar and Ned Boulting break down Stage 10 of Vuelta a España. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 🏅 For The Love Of Cycling is presented by Science in Sport, a pioneer in endurance fuelling: Backed by science.

  • Tadej Pogačar Has To Abandon The Vuelta | Emergency Ned Solo Podcast Reaction
    2026/08/29
    The Vuelta has turned completely on its head. Stage 8 was supposed to be a relatively straightforward 171km run from Puçol to Xeraco, but with 32km still to race, everything changed when race leader Tadej Pogačar went down hard in the middle of the peloton. Pogačar, who had held the red jersey since winning the opening time trial in Monaco, was left sitting on the road as the race doctors and UAE team staff attended to him. With deep cuts to his left shoulder and face, he eventually left the race in an ambulance with his arm in a sling, bringing his Vuelta to a sudden and dramatic end. It's Pogačar's first abandonment from a Grand Tour and his first DNF since 2023, and it completely changes the shape of the race. Enric Mas takes over as the new race leader, although the Spaniard chooses not to wear the red jersey on the podium out of respect for Pogačar. What does this mean for the Vuelta podium, and what does it mean for Pogačar’s goals of winning the big 3? Ned Boulting breaks down Stage 8 of the Vuelta a España. -------------------------------------------- 🏅 For The Love Of Cycling is presented by Science in Sport, a pioneer in endurance fuelling: Backed by science.

  • Pogačar Survives a NEAR-MISS Scare on Gravel Thriller | Vuelta Stage 6 Breakdown
    2026/08/27
    Pogačar is making this Vuelta look very difficult for everyone else. Stage 6 takes the race 177.5km from Alcossebre to Castelló, with a punchy route that builds towards a brutal finale, including a gravel section with gradients reaching 20%. And, once again, the red jersey decides he wants to race it like a one-day Classic. With UAE driving the pace and the break beginning to disappear, Pogačar launches his attack on the final climb and quickly opens a gap over the rest of the GC contenders. He hits the gravel alone and starts pulling away, but Enric Mas refuses to let him disappear. The Spaniard produces a huge chase and eventually makes contact with Pogačar near the top. The two then work together over the final kilometres, with Mas putting himself in position to move into second overall. But there is a heart-in-mouth moment on the descent as Pogačar runs off the road after misjudging a corner, coming to a complete stop before getting back on his bike and rejoining Mas. Pogačar still has enough left to beat him in the final sprint and claim his third stage victory in just six days. We get into Pogačar's attack, Mas' brilliant fightback, the chaos of the gravel and that near-crash on the descent, before looking at what another victory means for the GC race. Ned Boulting and Pete Kennaugh break down Stage 6 of the Vuelta a España. --------------------------------- 🏅 For The Love Of Cycling is presented by Science in Sport, a pioneer in endurance fuelling: Backed by science.

  • Brennan's Incredible Vuelta Debut Continues! | Vuelta Stage 5 Breakdown
    2026/08/26
    Matthew Brennan is having some Grand Tour debut. Just two days after taking his first Vuelta stage win, the 21-year-old Visma rider does it again in Roquetes, producing another brilliant sprint to make it two stage victories from the first five days of his first three-week Grand Tour. Stage 5 takes the race 173.3km from Falset through the Costa Daurada and into the Terres de l'Ebre, with strong winds making for a nervous day and several splits in the bunch. Ethan Hayter finds himself on the wrong side of one of those echelons before fighting his way back into contention and eventually taking maximum points at the intermediate sprint. The finale looks set for a chaotic sprint, but Visma have Brennan perfectly positioned. Wout van Aert and Christophe Laporte deliver a superb lead-out, putting Brennan in exactly the right place for the final few hundred metres. Jordi Meeus and Vincenzo Albanese come closest, but Brennan finishes the job to claim another win. We look at Brennan's remarkable start to the Vuelta, the strength of that Visma lead-out, Hayter's eventful day and what the result means for the race as Pogačar continues to hold a commanding lead in red. Ned Boulting and Pete Kennaugh breakdown Stage 5 of the Vuelta a España. --------------------------------- 🏅 For The Love Of Cycling is presented by Science in Sport, a pioneer in endurance fuelling: Backed by science.

  • Pogačar Attacks for Longest Grand Tour Solo Victory! | Vuelta a España Stage 4 Breakdown
    2026/08/25
    Pogačar has just put some serious daylight between himself and the rest of the Vuelta field. After yesterday's stage was wiped out by the weather, the race gets straight back into the mountains in Andorra, with just 104.8km on the menu but more than 2,800 metres of climbing. And it turns into another statement ride from the world champion. Pogačar attacks on the Collada de Beixalis with the race already being blown apart behind him. He then keeps extending his advantage over the final climbs and descents, eventually arriving in Andorra la Vella completely on his own to take the stage by 2:39. Behind him, the fight for the remaining podium places is much closer, with 20-year-old Jarno Widar taking second ahead of Félix Gall. Primož Roglič finishes seventh on the stage but moves into second overall, while Enric Mas, Sepp Kuss, Oscar Onley and Richard Carapaz all remain within striking distance of the podium. We look back at Pogačar's latest show of strength, the battle behind, and what a three-minute lead this early in the Vuelta means for everyone trying to stop him. Ned Boutling and Pete Kennaugh break down Stage 4 of the Vuelta. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 🏅 For The Love Of Cycling is presented by Science in Sport, a pioneer in endurance fuelling: Backed by science.

  • Stage 3 ABANDONED! Vuelta a España Stage 3 Breakdown
    2026/08/24
    The Vuelta heads into the mountains, but Stage 3 ends in extraordinary circumstances. The 174km route from Gruissan to Font-Romeu was set to provide the first real mountain test of the race, with the riders finishing at almost 2,000 metres above sea level. Instead, a brutal hailstorm on the final climb forces the race to be neutralised before the decision is eventually made to cancel the stage altogether. We get into the chaotic scenes as the weather closes in, riders are forced to take shelter and Tadej Pogačar plays a key role in bringing the racing to a halt. And our very own David Millar has his own story to tell, having cycled through the hailstorm to get to the race and watch the riders go by, only to get caught right in the middle of the chaos himself. Ned Boulting and Pete Kennaugh break down Stage 3 of the Vuelta. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 🏅 For The Love Of Cycling is presented by Science in Sport, a pioneer in endurance fuelling: Backed by science.
