Tadej Pogacar crashed out of Stage 8 of the 2026 Vuelta a España while leading the race by 3:50 over Enric Mas.

After targeting the Vuelta post-Tour de France, his race ended with a shoulder crash 33 kilometers from the finish.

Now, the question is what comes next.

In this piece to camera, we look at whether Pogacar can recover in time for the World Championships in Montreal, chase a third straight rainbow jersey and still return for Il Lombardia.
