Primož Roglič – winner of four of the last six events – is absent from the start line, while 2022 champion Remco Evenepoel and cycling supremo Tadej Pogačar are also missing.

The Grand Depart in Turin marks the first of four stages beginning in Italy, while Stage 4 itself will wrap up in Voiron, France, before riders jet down to Figueres on the north-eastern tip of the Iberian Peninsula.

Watch the Vuelta a España on TNT Sports via discovery+ Premium monthly pass Four-time champion – and last year's winner – Primož Roglič is absent from the start line this year, while his Slovenian compatriot Tadej Pogačar is also out of the running, leaving Vingegaard with an opportunity to exploit.

encoded: Dame Sarah Storey intends to compete at her 10th Paralympic Games in Los Angeles 2028, aged 50, but only if she believes she can go there o win. Britain's most decorated Paralympian of all time, Dame Sarah has scooped 30 medals since making her debut at the Games aged 16 at Barcelona 1992, including 19 golds spread across nine editions. Dame Sarah, who turned 47 in October, added two more streaks of cycling gold to her cabinet at Paris 2024 this summer, and has been recognised with a fourth nomination for the coveted BBC's Sports Personality of the Year award. Speaking exclusively to RadioTimes.com, she said: "Fourth time! After London, Rio and Tokyo. It feels really good, I had a year of unprecedented success, even by my own standards, four gold medals in 24 days. "I'm super proud of everything that led to this being possible. And super proud to be alongside the other five contenders." Dame Sarah faces stern opposition for the top honour in the shape of the overwhelming favourite, 800m Olympic gold medallist Keely Hodgkinson, as well as teenage darts sensation Luke Littler, triathlete Alex Yee, Real Madrid star Jude Bellingham and former England Test captain Joe Root. While she has claimed more metalware in previous editions of the Games, Dame Sarah believes 2024 was her "crowning glory" given circumstances away from the bike. She said: "At 2012, I won four gold medals in a week. But since then, I've had two children, I transitioned to having a job in Active Travel working in the transport team in Greater Manchester, I've taken on a role at the Institute of Sport at Manchester Metropolitan University, started doing various bits of performance consultancy at Lancashire Cricket Club, and ultimately became their president, and I'm still working in my public speaking roles. "Bringing all that together, and still achieving the results that I do, probably makes 2024 the crowning glory so far.

description: A round-up of the most successful riders in the history of the Vuelta a Espana.
encoded: The Vuelta a España is one of the world's most esteemed cycling races. Until 1995, the race was held in the spring, before moving to a late-August start. Even in September, temperatures in Spain can be very hot, especially in the south, adding extra pressure for the riders. Although it makes excursions to Spain’s southernmost provinces, the bulk of the action tends to be in the Pyrenees and the mountains along Spain’s northern coast in the Basque Country, Cantabria and Asturias. The race typically finishes with laps of a circuit in Madrid, comparable to the final stage of the Tour de France on the Champs-Élysées. When it was run in the spring, the Vuelta overlapped with the Giro d’Italia, which tended to restrict its appeal for international riders. Nowadays, it’s a popular late-season race for riders who have ridden the Giro but not the Tour de France, or who have been forced to abandon the Giro or the Tour. But who has conquered Spain more than any other cycling star? RadioTimes.com brings you the most successful riders in the history of Vuelta a España. Most Vuelta a España title wins Primož Roglič (Slovenia) – 3 Primož Roglič is one of the foremost current stage racers and won the Vuelta in 2019, 2020 and 2021. In 2022, he abandoned the race while in second place, following a heavy crash on stage 14. Roglič’s Vuelta wins came from stage victories in time trials and his ability to stay with the pace or win on the steep climbs of northern Spain. They’re talents that he also used to win the 2023 Giro d’Italia in May, when he took the lead from Welshman Geraint Thomas on the penultimate stage in a mountain time trial. He skipped the 2023 Tour de France, but looks set to take to the start line of the Vuelta in Barcelona in August, aiming for a fourth win. Alberto Contador (Spain) – 3 Contador won the Vuelta overall in 2008, 2012 and 2014. He was an aggressive, punchy climber and one of the dominant cyclists of the 2000s and 2010s. Alongside his three Vuelta wins, he …

description: A round-up of the most successful riders in the history of the Tour de France.
encoded: The Tour de France is cycling's crown jewel. The event is into its 110th edition, and in honour, we will take a look at the five most successful riders leading up to 2023. Four riders have won the Tour overall five times, while Mark Cavendish, who has never won the overall Tour general classification, has been its outstanding sprinter for 15 years, reaching a magnificent total of 34 stage victories. RadioTimes.com brings you the most successful riders in the history of Tour de France. Most Tour de France title wins Chris Froome (England) – 4 Froome was the main helper to Bradley Wiggins when Wiggins won the Tour de France in 2012, although tensions arose between the two when Froome looked set to drop Wiggins on the stage 11 mountaintop finish before he was ordered to drop back in his support. Froome subsequently led Team Sky (now Ineos Grenadiers) to four overall Tour victories, in 2013, 2015, 2016 and 2017. His success was founded on his strength in the mountains and on time trials, as well as the support of the strongest team at the race. He also won the Giro d’Italia in 2018 and Vuelta a España in 2018 and was retrospectively awarded the 2011 Vuelta victory, making him the most successful grand tour rider of recent times. Miguel Indurain (Spain) – 5 At 1.86m (6ft 1in) tall and weighing 76kg, Miguel Indurain would almost certainly be too large to win a Tour de France today. Even Chris Froome, who is the same height as Indurain, weighs 68kg and Jonas Vingegaard and Tadej Pogacar, the current dominant Tour riders are shorter and lighter still. But Indurain won five Tours in a row from 1991 to 1995, mainly thanks to his domination in the time trials. He was then able to defend his position in the mountains. It has been said that Indurain was a calculating rider and his performances uninspiring, but they were sufficient to better his rivals and also win him two Giro-Tour doubles in 1992 and 1993. Bernard Hinault (France) – 5 Bernard Hinault’s five Tour de France wins …

description: A round-up of the most successful riders in the history of the Giro d'Italia.
encoded: The most successful riders at the Giro d’Italia, Italy’s three week grand tour, include three five-time winners and a prolific sprint stage winner, as well as a rider who might have won more times had his career not overlapped with that of the greatest rider of all time. The most successful winners of the Tour de France tend to have achieved their feats in the 1960s, though in the Giro they go right back to 1925. In the years following its founding in 1909, the Giro was very much a race for Italian riders. It wasn’t until after the second world war that it looked closer to the international stage race that it is now – second only to the Tour in prestige. The Giro is held in May each year. It’s a time when the weather can be unpredictable in Italy. You’ll often see the race passing through fields of early blossom, but it’s equally likely that there will be stages ridden through torrential downpours and that the typical third week passage through the Alps and Dolomites will see stages shortened or rerouted due to snowfall – but which stars have navigated the landscape best over the years? RadioTimes.com brings you the most successful riders in the history of Giro d'Italia. Most Giro d'Italia title wins Alfredo Binda (Italy) – 5 Alfredo Binda’s five wins came in 1925, 1927, 1928, 1929 and 1933. That tally included 41 individual stage wins, as well as winning 12 of 15 stages in the 1927 race and eight stages in a row in 1929. He wasn’t popular with the Italian fans and was so dominant, that he was paid by the race’s organisers not to compete in the 1930 race. In Binda’s day, bikes had just two speeds (modern top spec race bikes have 24), no freewheel and riders had to dismount and manually swap the chain between the two fixed gear sprockets attached to the rear hub. They also weighed more than twice the 7kg of a modern race bike and there was limited support, hence the images of riders with a spare tyre wrapped around their shoulders. Stages were huge as well, with many…

description: We’ve sifted through their record of wins to select the best road cyclists ever.
encoded: With a history going back over 130 years, choosing a top ten for road cyclists is difficult; so much has changed in cycling even in the last 20 years, and the modern approach is much more scientific than in the past, when race wins were often measured in hours, not seconds. There’s also a variety of talents to consider. Although winning a three week grand tour (of Italy, Spain or France) is a mark of superiority, there are riders like Mark Cavendish who could never win a grand tour outright, but have still racked up an impressive string of victories. For the four riders who have won the Tour de France five times, that alone is only an indication of their dominance, and all have a string of wins in shorter stage races and one day races to their names as well, justifying their inclusion. With all that in mind, RadioTimes.com rounds up our list of the top 10 road cyclists of all time 10. Chris Froome (Great Britain) Froome has won four Tours de France, two Vueltas a España and the Giro d’Italia once, at one point in 2018 being the reigning champion in all three grand tours simultaneously. A crash in 2019 just ahead of the Tour de France put him out of competition for months. He’s hasn't returned to peak form since and, at age 38, is reaching the end of his professional cycling career, but he’s still the most successful grand tour rider currently competing. 9. Sean Kelly (Ireland) Kelly was the outstanding one day racer of the 1980s, winning all the major classics multiple times, bar the Tour of Flanders. He also won the Tour de France green jersey classification four times and the one week Paris-Nice stage race seven years in a row. Kelly was a natural sprinter and exploited the tough conditions typical in the early season races, but could also climb strongly, which won him a single grand tour win at the Vuelta a España in 1988. 8. Marco Pantani (Italy) Nicknamed The Pirate, Pantani lived up to his name, sporting a bandana, gold earrings and a goatee beard. His riding …

description: Our round-up of the best road cyclists in the world right now in 2023.
encoded: The Tour de France is the world’s premier cycle race and many of the world’s best riders will be lining up for the start. They’ll be looking to make their mark with stage wins and in the points and king of the mountain competitions over the three weeks of the race, or just to show their team’s colours in a breakaway. A select few will be aiming to wear the race leader’s yellow jersey and maybe win the race overall when it arrives in Paris. Ranking the top road cyclists in the world is a tough task given the variety of events and style differences between some of the best around. Not all will ride the Tour de France. Some are specialists in the early-season one-day races, while others like Primož Roglič, who won the Giro d’Italia in May, will skip the Tour so that they’re in peak form for later-season races such as the Vuelta a España, which starts in August. A three week grand tour takes a lot out of the riders. RadioTimes.com brings you our ranking of the 10 best cyclists in the world right now. 1. Jonas Vingegaard (Denmark) Jumbo-Visma Winner of the Tour de France in 2022, Vingegaard is a superb climber and also won the King of the Mountains classification and two individual mountain stages during the race. Concentrating on stage races, he’s been low-key so far in 2023, but has won all the races he’s started with the exception of Paris-Nice in March, including domination of the Critérium du Dauphiné in early June - a traditional test for riders ahead of the Tour de France. 2. Tadej Pogačar (Slovenia) UAE Team Emirates Pogačar had won two Tours de France before age 23, also taking the King of the Mountains and Best Young Rider prizes on both occasions. He’ll be looking for revenge at this year’s Tour, having been bested by Vingegaard last year. He’s a fearsome competitor, taking a string of one-day race wins in early 2023, before crashing and breaking his wrist in the Liège–Bastogne–Liège classic in April. Since then, he’s largely been out of competition and will b…
