The world's top cyclist Tadej Pogacar opens his 2025 season at the UAE Tour on Feb 17 and says he cannot wait to ride out in his world champion's rainbow jersey on his team's "home" soil.

ABU DHABI - The world's top cyclist Tadej Pogacar opens his 2025 season at the UAE Tour on Feb 17 and says he cannot wait to ride out in his world champion's rainbow jersey on his team's "home" soil.

The 26-year-old Slovenian is a sizzling hot favourite to bag a third title in the seven-day race following his triple crown in 2024, when he amassed the Giro d'Italia, the Tour de France and the world title.

As champion, the UAE Team Emirates rider will sport the eye-catching shirt all season.

"Finally, I have the rainbow jersey. It feels unreal to ride every day with it and to come here in the home country of the team with this jersey is amazing."
