WorldTour racing resumes in next week at the seven-stage UAE Tour, with some of the top riders in the peloton set to face off for the red jersey, but it's Remco Evenepoel (Red Bull-Bora-Hanshrohe) that the focus will be on as the favourite.
The Belgian returns to the UAE three years after claiming overall victory in 2023 ahead of Adam Yates (UAE Team Emirates-XRG), who will also be back in 2026, but it's the Brit's young Mexican teammate, Isaac del Toro, who is expected to provide the biggest challenge.
