During the Critérium du Dauphiné, Tadej Pogačar emphasized the importance of teamwork during a tough 207km stage, which featured significant vertical climbing and a fast pace. Despite strong individual performances from breakaway riders like Florian Lipowitz and Eddy Dunbar, Pogačar and UAE Team Emirates worked hard to manage the situation. His strategic awareness and tactics, including capitalizing on intermediate sprints, underscored his determination to maintain a competitive edge in this high-stakes race, culminating in him finishing within the main pack while recognizing the risks posed by the breakaway group.
It was a proper Tour de France stage today, we committed to work as a team and we did a super job.
We knew that if we did it alone, it'd be hard to control this kind of breakaway, especially with Florian Lipowitz and Eddie Dunbar in the move.
