Tadej Pogačar Remains Calm Despite Time Loss: “There Are Still Tough Stages to Come”
Tadej Pogačar, one of the biggest names in professional cycling, experienced a setback after losing a notable amount of time during a recent stage. While some fans and analysts might be quick to raise concerns, the Slovenian star remains composed and optimistic.
“I know exactly where I lost the time,” Pogačar admitted after the finish. “It was a difficult day, and I didn’t have the legs I was hoping for. But this is the Tour – every day is a battle, and sometimes you just have to survive and look ahead.”
Despite the time loss, Pogačar is far from panicking. He emphasized that the race is far from over. “There are still some brutal mountain stages ahead, and anything can happen. I’m feeling good overall, and my team is strong. We’re not giving up – we’re just getting started.”
His attitude shows the maturity of a rider who knows how to handle the highs and lows of a Grand Tour. In previous years, Pogačar has shown he can strike back decisively when it matters most. With several tough stages still on the horizon, including summit finishes and potential crosswind chaos, the race remains wide open.
Fans will be watching closely to see how he responds in the coming days. For now, Pogačar is focused, confident, and determined to fight back.
“I’ve learned from past races that staying calm and thinking long-term is key. Today didn’t go perfectly, but we’ll be ready for the next challenge.”
With his trademark resilience and tactical sharpness, Tadej Pogačar remains very much a contender – and as he says, the hardest stages areyet to come.
