Primozh Roglic, refusal from La Vuelta – the same fate as the Tour de France 2022

Primozh Roglic was hoping to bounce back after being ruled out of the 2022 Tour de France following a fall.

At La Vuelta, Roglic was second overall before stage 16, with a real chance of beating leader Remko Evenepol.

However, a few meters before the end of the 16th stage, Roglic had an accident that ended his participation in La Vuelta.

The Slovenian has won 10 stages of La Vuelta and won the last three editions of the race.
