Stage 9 of the Tour de France 2026 (July 12, Malemort–Ussel, 185.5 km) is not won by Tadej Pogačar

Hit ✦ AI-generated prediction Published on 11. July 2026 · Predicted for 12. July 2026 · Based on: Statistical Pattern

Probability

74%

Pogačar leads after Stage 6 (Tourmalet solo win) by 2:42 over Vingegaard. July 13 is the first rest day — a strong strategic incentive to conserve energy. Stage 9 is not a summit finish but a hilly stage (3,300m) — typical for a breakaway win. Polymarket prices Pogačar at 92% for overall win, but that does not imply aggressive attacking on non-summit stages. Historically GC favorites rarely win the last stage before a rest day when their lead is secure.

Marc Márquez (Ducati Lenovo) wins the 2026 MotoGP Qatar Grand Prix — Losail International Circuit, 8 November 2026 (confirmed by MotoGP.com or FIM by 9 November 2026)

Márquez leads the 2026 championship after 19 of 22 rounds with 399 points, 44 clear of Jorge Martín (355). Martín suffered a wrist injury in Malaysia and is doubtful for Qatar (MotoGPNews, 4 Nov 2026). MotoGPNews experts nonetheless lean toward Marco Bezzecchi for Sunday's main race; Márquez himself admits he 'often struggled at Lusail'. Without a dedicated race-winner market, probability is derived from championship futures (Márquez 2/5, Bezzecchi 7/1 at bet365), implying a ~30–35% single-race win probability for Márquez. A Martín DNS would further reduce competition.
