The autumn season rolled on with the European road race championships at the weekend - and report back from a men’s road race dominated in familiar fashion by Tadej Pogačar, but also lit up by a French teenager riding and starring on home roads, Paul Seixas. 

Daniel Friebe and Lionel Birnie are joined by the voice of Radio Tour, Seb Piquet, to analyse Pog’s latest masterclass and what’s next for Seixas. Before all of that, we also catch up on other news from the last week in pro cycling, including Cian Uijtdebroeks’ surprise transfer to Movistar, Alexander Kristoff’s unhappy farewell and the likely demise of the Arkéa team.
