Crunch time in the Pyrenees as Jonas Vingegaard, Remco Evenepoel, and Tom Pidcock prepare for the 2026 Volta a Catalunya. The race marks a crucial battleground for contenders eyeing the Giro d'Italia and Tour de France. This March, the event features three challenging summit finishes, with stage 6 boasting 4,000 meters of vertical climbing centered around Berga.
