UAE Team Emirates general manager Mauro Gianetti has told L’Equipe that the ongoing uncertainty regarding Tadej Pogačar’s current condition means that Adam Yates will be the team’s co-leader for the Tour de France.
Pogačar is set to fight for a third Tour de France win this July following his defeat in the 2022 race by Jonas Vingegaard (Jumbo-Visma). But after crashing and fracturing his wrist in Liège-Bastogne-Liège at the end of April, Pogačar’s build-up to the Tour has been affected.
