The Men’s Tour de Suisse 2026 has the feel of a compressed general classification test rather than a traditional week-long Swiss stage race. The new five-day format removes almost all of the old padding, giving the contenders a hilly opener in Sondrio, two rolling Swiss stages, a 23.8km individual time trial in Aarburg and a […]

The Tour de France 2026 route looks built for a serious mountains classification battle. With 8 mountain stages, 5 summit finishes, the Col du Tourmalet, Plateau de Solaison, Orcières-Merlette and back-to-back days on Alpe d’Huez, the polka-dot jersey should be more than a side contest. It could become one of the defining threads of the […]

The Tour de France 2026 route gives the general classification contenders almost everything they could have feared. There is an opening team time trial in Barcelona, early Pyrenean climbing, a first-week summit finish at Gavarnie-Gèdre, a difficult mid-race block through the Massif Central, Vosges and Jura, a stage 16 individual time trial, and then a […]

Minimo sforzo e massima resa. Il risultato finale: la Tripla Corona.

Tour Auvergne – Rhône-Alpes is a new name for one of cycling’s oldest and most revealing stage races. Before its 2026 rebrand, the race was known as the Critérium du Dauphiné, and before that, the Critérium du Dauphiné Libéré. The title may have changed, but the sporting identity is very familiar: a hard early-June test […]

Tadej Pogačar took full control of the Men’s Tour de Romandie on stage 4, winning alone in Charmey after a brutal series of accelerations on the final ascent of the Jaunpass. UAE Team Emirates-XRG had already shaped much of the week, but this was the day the race was properly broken apart, with Pogačar riding […]

Dorian Godon took his second win of the 2026 Men’s Tour de Romandie, timing his sprint perfectly in Orbe to deny Tadej Pogačar a hat-trick of stage victories. The Ineos Grenadiers rider came around Finn Fisher-Black in the final metres after a hard day that gradually shifted from breakaway control to a selective sprint finish. […]

Tadej Pogačar doubled up at the 2026 Tour de Romandie, winning stage 2 in Vucherens from a reduced group after a nervous, attacking finale that never quite slipped from his grasp.

Tadej Pogačar took control of the 2026 Tour de Romandie on stage 1, winning the opening road stage from Martigny to Martigny after splitting the race on the day’s main climb and then finishing the job in a reduced sprint.

Tadej Pogačar leaves the spring as the clearest reference point in men’s cycling. His fourth win at Liège-Bastogne-Liège added another Monument to a 2026 campaign that already included major victories elsewhere, reinforcing the sense that the biggest one-day races still tend to bend around him. What changed most in Liège was not the identity of […]

Dorian Godon made the perfect start to the 2026 Tour de Romandie, winning the 3.2km prologue in Villars-sur-Glâne and taking the first leader’s jersey of the week. The Ineos Grenadiers rider beat Ivo Oliveira and Jakob Söderqvist by six seconds on the short but punchy opener, while pre-race favourite Tadej Pogačar had to settle for […]

Men’s Liège-Bastogne-Liège 2026 gave the men’s spring its sharpest final answer. Tadej Pogačar won the race for a fourth time, beating Paul Seixas after finally cracking the French teenager on the Côte de la Roche-aux-Faucons. Remco Evenepoel then finished 3rd, which left the podium reading like a snapshot of the current sport: the established Monument […]

Calato il poker e infilato il tris consecutivo. Tadej Pogacar trionfa ancora una volta alla Liegi-Bastogne-Liegi e si conferma il padrone assoluto delle Ardenne. Lo sloveno infila la 13esima Classifica Monumento della carriera e cancella il secondo posto alla Parigi-Roubaix di due settimane fa.

Men’s Liège-Bastogne-Liège 2026 arrives with exactly the kind of field a Monument should have. Tadej Pogačar and Remco Evenepoel still sit at the top of the race hierarchy, but this year’s edition feels broader than a simple two-man script. Paul Seixas has forced his way into the main conversation after his Ardennes rise, Tom Pidcock […]

Men’s Liège-Bastogne-Liège 2026 takes place on Sunday 26th April and closes the spring Classics season with the oldest Monument in cycling. It is the race where depth matters almost as much as leadership, because the Ardennes do not simply expose the strongest rider. They also expose which teams can still place support around their leader […]

Men’s La Flèche Wallonne 2026 gave the Ardennes week a result that felt bigger than a single midweek Classic. Paul Seixas did not just win on the Mur de Huy. He won it on debut, at 19 years old, and in doing so became the youngest winner in the race’s long history. That alone would […]

Men’s La Flèche Wallonne 2026 was won by Paul Seixas after the 19-year-old Decathlon-CMA CGM rider delivered a commanding performance on the Mur de Huy. Already one of the sensations of the spring after his overall victory at Itzulia Basque Country, Seixas arrived in Wallonia carrying expectation and left with a landmark Ardennes victory. The […]

Men’s Tour de Romandie 2026 takes place from Tuesday 28th April to Sunday 3rd May, with six stages across French-speaking Switzerland and a route that should favour climbers and complete general classification riders.

Men’s Amstel Gold Race 2026 gave the Ardennes week a clear reference point. Remco Evenepoel did not simply add another major one-day victory to his palmarès.

The Giro d’Italia has always felt slightly different from the other Grand Tours. It has the prestige and scale of one of cycling’s defining races, but it also carries a very particular Italian identity. The race moves through Alpine passes, Adriatic coastlines, city centres, volcanic roads, industrial regions and hill towns, and in doing so […]

Wout van Aert did not just win Men’s Paris-Roubaix 2026. He changed the emotional and sporting shape of the spring.

Paris-Roubaix always tempts people into over-simplifying the race. It is easy to frame it as Mathieu van der Poel versus Tadej Pogačar and stop there. That is understandable, because Van der Poel is chasing a fourth straight win and Pogačar arrives having already won Milano-Sanremo and the Tour of Flanders this spring. But Roubaix is […]

Paris-Roubaix always has a way of making the field look smaller than it really is. By the time the race reaches the final sectors, the conversation usually narrows to a handful of riders, but the teams around them still shape how the race gets there. For 2026, the headline rivalry again centres on Mathieu van […]
