The story so far

The announcement came as the rider prepared for upcoming post‑crash assessments. Subsequent reports added detail: The Guardian said surgery was required for a fractured collarbone, while the BBC linked the missed season directly to the crash injuries.

Outside Magazine, meanwhile, highlighted a new contract extension that would keep Pogačar racing into his mid‑30s, a note that contrasts with the current season‑ending status. As of now, Pogačar will sit out the remainder of the calendar and focus on medical clearance.
