Tadej Pogačar (UAE Team Emirates XRG, SLO) finishes Stage 16 of the Tour de France 2026 (ITT Évian–Thonon, 26.1 km, 21 July 2026) in 1st, 2nd or 3rd place

Probability

80%

Evenepoel is the stage-win favourite (open Cassandra prediction), but Pogačar is a world-class time trialist. After Vingegaard's abandonment (broken collarbone, Stage 15), the GC field is thinned; Pogačar leads by 5:00 and will ride conservatively. The partly uphill 9.7 km finish drag favours climbers over pure TT specialists. No direct Polymarket contract for this placement bet; calibrated from ProCyclingStats data.

Tadej Pogačar (UAE Team Emirates XRG, SLO) wins the polka-dot jersey (King of the Mountains) at the Tour de France 2026 (Paris, July 27, 2026)

Pogačar leads the KOM classification after Stage 15 with 67 pts vs Paret-Peintre (45, gap: 22). Vingegaard, previously second in KOM, crashed out in Stage 15. Since Pogačar wears yellow, Paret-Peintre carries the polka-dot on the road but Pogačar wins it officially. Remaining stages 17-21 include two Alpe d'Huez ascents. No Polymarket market for polka-dot jersey found; bookmakers see Pogačar as clear favourite.
