Towards the end of 2023 the shocking news arrived that Primoz Roglic would be departing the dutch outfit of Jumbo Visma in favour of Bora Hansgrohe for a 3 year contract after being Jumbo since 2016.
Every thing seemed incredible in 2023 for Roglic and Jumbo Visma he had won all the stage races leading up to the Vuelta however at the Vuelta the decision was made to put a lease on Roglic in favour of his loyal team mate Sepp Kuss and that was the spark for the move added with the hefty salary of 6 million euros a year.

vingle coupled with that disappointment of the team not working for his aspirations at the Welter espia when SE crus had the leader Jersey and the Slovenian was a bit disgruntled hence he wanted to join an environment where he could once again be the focus of the team controlling the team and Bor Hans were the selected team for the Slovenian a growing GC setup and a team that had a number of strong climbers that could really help him Elevate his chances of winning the torto France his debut of the new season for the team came at Paris n where the anticipation was high to see the Slovenian in the New Jersey early signs suggested cracks in rl’s usual dominance rco Veno and Matel Jorgenson bested him in a bonus Sprint early on the team time trial further exposed weaknesses with rogich and borans conceding 54 seconds to the UAE team memor team and stage four with its uphill finish to Mont pu seemed tailor made for rogl of the past but while the stage win was decided as Santiago brago took the win a later attack from Remco avenol and Matia skelos yansen exposed a lack of explosiveness compared to his victories at Tano and in Catalonia the previous year and there was a bit of concern for rogl the final stage of parin proved disastrous as rogl lost a staggering four minutes in total finishing behind not only stage win at Remco Ino but also his teammate Alexander vazov and ultimately the win went to Mato Jorgenson of his old team Primus rage bounced back at tour of the bass country winning the opening time trial in a dominant fashion ahead of bers being and Remco Veno even taking a wrong turn at the Finish however the bad luck for RO glitch hit once again as on stage four on a downhill descent the front of the Pelton were wiped out by an uneven surface and that meant that most of the Riders at the front crashed out rogl was one of the victims of this coupled with vingal and Remco Veno but it seemed like rogl had somewhat not sustained as hard injuries as some of the other Riders he was soon back to normal training and lined up almost 2 months later at the Criterium d a race that he had succeeded at before on the second stage of the race he was up there towards the pointy end losing out to the danne Manus qut Nelson but rogl was very strong in that favorites group on the time trial stage RIT again looked very strong being able to finish third overall 39 seconds behind the world champion Remco aveno and 17 seconds behind the European Champion Josh tling and let’s just remind ourselves that he is in fact the Olympic time Tri Champion as well stage five the whole Pelon was caught up in a dangerous crash on a wet descent and the stage was neutralized due to the number of riders caught up in the various crashes and not being enough ambulances if there was to be another crash rogl seemed like he had touched the Tomac but was quickly up on his feet and didn’t look too bothered by the crash the next day Bora took control of the mountain finish exposing Remco Veno who was the leader at the time struggling to hold the wheel and vazo motoring up the climb with rogich and Chone on his wheel towards the end then when it came time rogl Unleashed a torpedo of an attack and left chakon parked on the climb and sealed the wind and took the Jersey by 19 seconds the next day RIT was flying high after that that impressive Victory he managed to out kick Mato jensson towards the Finish to win the stage and on the final stage once again although he didn’t win the stage and lost a bit of time to his Rivals he did enough to seal the overall Victory 8 seconds ahead of Mato jensson of his old team this Malisa bike the correlation between do winners and then going on to win the Tour of France has mixed success in recent years and its history as a total last year yoris WI goal won both the doofan and then went on to win the total France and the year before we had Primus rogl taking the victory in the doofan holding hands with yoris Bingle on one of stage wins and Bingle went on to win the race overall so winning the doofan doesn’t necessarily guarantee you a Toral France Victory but time will tell RIT has never won the Toral France as we know but came close in 2020 where he lost there on the penultimate stage on a time trial up till I PL to Bill fee that broke the cycling sphere as tid batcha the youngster won his first tour France and since then rogich has never actually finished the Tor France as in 2021 he crashed out which inadvertedly led to bore leading the team and unexpectedly finishing second of that Year’s Edition and in 2022 where rogl proved a pivotal part of Bingo’s race win as he was part of the breakdown of tat on stage 11 but he later crashed out as well on that Edition that aside rogl is still a winner on the bike and despite not finishing the Tor France since 2020 he did win the 2020 welto spia the 2021 welto SP and last year winning the 2023 jured Italia so quite a few scalps in there and paga is a well-rounded rider in the GC Department he’s able to follow the moves in the high mountains from the best Riders in the world and has a very Punchy kick when it comes to the hilia terrain that most can’t rival and he is very fast when it comes to any particular time trial but rage’s status as a favorite for this year’s toural France is not just down to his impressive palarz and his qualities but also the exciting team that borans scrow or shall I say Red Bull borans scrow as they will be known have assembled to support rogl rogl will not only have the services of Alexander blaso Ryder who’s finished in the top five in the Jalia before and even in the Tour of France alongside that he’s also got John hinley the 2022 Jalia winner who managed to finish in the top 10 last year at the tour France despite crashing during the race and even managed to win stage five and wore the yellow Jersey for one day as well not bad for the Australians first tour alongside that he will also have Mato soero who’s a very good time trialist and strong R overall Bob jungles a former white jersey winner at the Jalia and very good in the medor mountains and rolling terrain and even won a stage in the Toral France recently as well so a lot of talent and experience within one team and then the cherry on top of the cake Primus rogl the other Riders who could rival Primus rogl for that win are actually not in the best position right now of course on the channel we’ve talked about yoris vingal who is his old teammate he was caught up badly in that tour of the bass country crash probably the worst and is in a stressful race to recovery and it’s not even sure that he will make it to the start line Remco Veno will be debuting the Tour of France and has a lot of pressure on him as he has been labeled the next Eddie Ms and really struggled against rage in the doofan and also last year in the Welter Catalonia but remu did look stronger in Paris n yet remu claded in last year’s wel to espania so that is a red flag for the Belgian then there is tacha his old foe from 2020 who denied him that yellow Jersey on the worst possible time Pacha has looked Invincible in 2024 there’s no shadow of a doubt but will that all come at a price the two have had plenty of battles with Pacha coming out on top on most of them but we are going into the San LCA climb in Bologna on stage two and rage put paga to The Sword in the 2023 Edition so maybe he can get the jump on Pacha early on and then just ride defensive on the Slovenian the Slovenian may also feel the fatigue of his busy calendar year and that could be an opportunity for Pacha to Prevail Primus RL certainly took a chance on himself and moved to the exciting Red Bull Bor Hound grow team just in time the route looks rogl friendly with plent plenty of exciting opportunities in the early week and even that final time trial to ni will certainly be up his street his team are firing on all cylinders there is an ample chance that this could finally be the slovenians year and he could win the Tour of France that’s basically it for this video make sure to hit the like button subscribe to the channel here on the

Has a chance of the podium but win er… no
Its looking like a 3rd or second place for him , depending on how vingegaard goes behind pogacar
thecyclingdane: "Why Primož Roglič FINALLY WINS the Tour de France in 2024?"
Primož Roglič: "Because I couldn't win Le Tour de France in 2023"
Not a hope ever now
He is nowhere close to win Le tour this year. The only realistic thing you want to talk about him is if he will be at more than 10 minutes or not.
NO he won't win
He don t have a chance only debate is will he finish ahead of remco Eveneopol
