The Domestiques

The Domestiques brings you a very special interview with Allan Peiper, UAE Team Emirates Race Analyst and form Sports Director. As the Tour de France heads into the Pyrenees and Tadej Pogacar chases a third overall victory, Allan Peiper expresses his concern for a rider he mentored for many years.

Allan says The Pog may be “burning too many matches” and fears he may be overrun by the rising form of Danish rival Jonas Vingegaard. It’s a fascinating insight on how the 2024 edition might pan out. Hear the thoughts of one of world cycling’s most respected voices. Only on The Domestiques.

The Tour de France has enjoyed its most exciting first week in recent memory. What have we learned after the first nine days and what might be expected before the final stage time trial finish in Nice? Will the Pogacar and Vingegaard battle reignite or will Remco reach a level the Belgian has never been before? In the latest episode of The Domestiques the team unpacks the many highs, the few lows and the twists and turns that have made the 2024 TdF edition one to remember.
