World champion Tadej PogaÄar, following his win at the UAE Tour, is steering his focus towards one-day Classics, with no stage races until June. He aims to defend his title at Strade Bianche on March 8 and targets Milan-San Remo, expressing the need to adapt his training and mental approach for these races. Although this decision is driven by PogaÄar, his team remains supportive, recognizing their collaborative approach in planning his season ahead of major competitions like the Tour de France and Vuelta.
After winning his 2025 season debut at the UAE Tour, Tadej PogaÄar will shift focus to one-day Classics until the Critérium du Dauphiné in June.
PogaÄar emphasized a need to mentally prepare for one-day races, highlighting his objective to defend his title at Strade Bianche and aim for Milan-San Remo.
The decision to focus on one-day races is PogaÄar's own, but he maintains good communication with his team to meet both their and his goals.
PogaÄar humorously mentioned that one-day races are appealing because they are 'finished faster' and allow him to return home quickly.
