‘Livigno is a special place for me’ – Every Giro d’Italia victory has a reason for Tadej Pogačar

Tadej Pogačar is dominating the 2024 Giro d’Italia, but there is always a reason for every attack and every victory. He is a cannibal but doesn’t just want to win for the sake of it or to embarrass his rivals, and there are emotions and reasons for everything he does.  

Pogačar’s fourth stage victory in this year’s Corsa Rosa at the Mottolino ski station above Livigno was very personal. He pointed to the sky as he crossed the line and then raised his arms in celebration as he realised what he had done.
