Tadej Pogacar faces future cycling challenges with the Vuelta scheduled for September

Slovenian cycling superstar Tadej Pogačar has cemented his status as one of the sport's all-time greats, dominating the three Grand Tours in a way few riders ever achieve. Información reports that by 2027, Pogačar will have conquered nearly every major cycling goal — leaving just one significant target: the Spanish Vuelta, which cycling organizers are now planning to hold in September, after the World Championships.
Pogačar has achieved what many cycling legends only dreamed of: winning the Tour de France, Giro d'Italia, and establishing himself as a force in all three Grand Tours. According to Levante-EMV, his success across these races positions him among cycling's greatest champions. His consistency and power have made him nearly unbeatable in the world's toughest bike races.
The Spanish Vuelta stands as Pogačar's last major objective in grand tour racing. El Día reports that race organizers are now scheduling the Vuelta for September, deliberately placing it after the World Championships. This timing change reflects the sport's evolving calendar and gives Pogačar a clear window to pursue his final Grand Tour crown.
Moving the Vuelta to September after the Worlds represents a major shift in professional cycling's schedule. La Opinión de Córdoba notes this reorganization could give riders like Pogačar a fresh chance to compete for all three Grand Tours in a single season or across consecutive years. The scheduling change opens new strategic possibilities for both riders and teams planning their campaigns.
Once Pogačar claims the Vuelta, the question becomes what legacy challenges remain for him in professional cycling. El Periódico de Aragón suggests his dominance already cements him as one of the sport's greatest ever. Beyond the Grand Tours, world championships, stage races, and one-day classics will define the next chapter of his legendary career.
