Tadej Pogačar has continued to speak about his future in cycling, saying that he is "already counting down to retirement".
The Slovenian, who won his fourth Tour de France last month, ended that race in an existential mood, warning "burnouts happen all the time, and it could happen to me as well". He has won 16 times in 43 race days this season, and won 25 times in 58 in 2024.
