In this episode of the Domestique Cycling Podcast, Bram is joined by Domestique editor Ethan for a short preview of the season's last WorldTour race on European soil as they break down the parcours, where they expect Tadej Pogačar to go solo and who will attempt to follow him.

Potentially standing in the Slovenian's way is Remco Evenepoel, who’s been closing the gap all autumn after strong rides at both the World Championships and European Championships. Behind them lies a deep field of challengers, including Tom Pidcock, Richard Carapaz, Giulio Ciccone, and breakout star Paul Seixas, each with their own chance to disrupt the Pogacar–Evenepoel duopoly.
