Tour de France 2022 Preview
Slovenia cyclist Tadej Pogacar seeks a three-peat in the Tour de France after winning the general classification titles during the past two years.
“I’ve got more confident over the years because I’m more experienced. The training has been good and I have a good team, that’s what builds confidence,” Pogacar told the media via Cycling News’ Stephen Farrand. “Still, you never know what happens in the race; one bad day can change everything even if you’re on good form. I hope to have good legs every day.”
Pogacar became the youngest cyclist since 1904 to win the title in 2020 at age 21. He’s also the youngest cyclist ever to win back-to-back Tour de France crowns.
“Cycling isn’t science-fiction and we have to fight all the way to win,” Pogacar said via Farrand. “Everyone has weak points. Nobody has a perfect day every day. I hope a bad day doesn’t happen to me in the Tour and that we survive the difficult moments. For sure there will be difficult moments, that’s normal in cycling and especially in Grand Tours.”

With the challenge ahead in the 24-day event, Pogacar looks forward to the latest challenge.
“I can’t wait to start. I’m excited, it’s going to be great to get the ball rolling,” Pogacar said via Farrand. “I’m excited again to start the Tour de France, like I am for any race. I want to do my best. The Tour is the biggest race in the calendar, so I’m pretty happy to be at the start and to fight for the title.”
Pogacar doesn’t get into legacy talk though with a third-consecutive title on the line.
“We have so much going on in our present life that it’s difficult to look back. I just try to enjoy the moment and have fun on the bikes. We’ll see what the future brings,” Pogacar said via Farrand.
Slovenia’s Primoz Roglic will look to unseat Pogacar. Roglic came up short against Pogacar in 2020, but Roglic didn’t get closer in 2021 due to a crash in the race.
“It is a race that I haven’t won yet. I would love to win it,” Roglic said on Eurosport’s Cycling Show. “But I don’t look at it like I have really bad memories about it. It’s just some experiences that happened. Mostly it’s incredible, like the way I won in 2017, I still remember my super good day going over Galibier and then finishing in Serre Chevalier.”
“In cycling you’re going to have a lot of different kinds of goals because there are just a crazy amount of races,” Roglic added. “But the Tour is definitely the biggest one, or one of the biggest ones. It depends for each individual. But for me, it’s a big goal to go there, do my best and try to win it.”
