Tadej Pogačar, the reigning Tour de France champion, has returned to the Spanish Vuelta a España for the first time in seven years with the goal of winning all three Grand Tours — the Giro d'Italia, Tour de France, and Vuelta — a rare achievement in professional cycling.

The race is running concurrently with the Women's Tour de France, where Katarzyna Niewiadoma-Phinney has taken the overall lead after winning the Mont Ventoux stage. Pogačar's campaign at the Vuelta is ongoing, with the outcome of his treble bid yet to be decided.
