Tadej Pogačar, the reigning world champion from UAE Team Emirates-XRG, is on the cusp of securing his third UAE Tour victory as he heads into the final stage. With previous wins at Jebel Hafeet in 2020, 2021, and 2022, he expresses optimism but avoids complacency, hinting at his teammate Jay Vine's potential for success as well. Pogačar recalls a previous defeat to Adam Yates in 2020 but remains hopeful for more triumphs as they both prepare for the decisive summit finish at the UAE-Oman border.
Pogačar noted, "One time I really lost badly against Adam Yates, who is now my teammate. But since then, I have always won there. I hope that tomorrow, I can deliver the same."
Pogačar highlighted the possibility of a strong performance from his teammate, stating, "If not me, then maybe Jay Vine can do it. For sure, we will go for it either way."
