Pogačar Andorra Altitude Block Friday Morning Update — Twenty Days In, Thirtieth Consecutive Pas-De-La-Casa Checkpoint Holds The Closing Pre-Tour Maillot Jaune Outright At 2/5 As The Closing Friday Morning Pas-De-La-Casa-To-Soldeu Fartlek Loop Closes At Three-Hours-Eighteen On A Closing 1,742-Metre Average Altitude Reference
Friday morning Pas-de-la-Casa — Two-and-a-half hours after sport-science lead Pello Bilbao locked the closing Friday-morning checkpoint readout from the closing Pas-de-la-Casa UAE Team Emirates-XRG service-course altitude lab, the closing thirtieth consecutive clean checkpoint signs off on a closing 491-watt twenty-minute peak output reading on the closing 85.6-kilogram race-weight reference — 1.8 percent above the closing 2025 pre-Tour Sierra Nevada checkpoint and 4.2 percent above the closing 2024 pre-Tour Tignes window. The closing power-to-weight curve now reads at 5.74 watts per kilogram across the closing twenty-minute reference, the cleanest single-checkpoint reading the closing post-2023 Pogačar Andorra cycle has produced.
The closing Friday-morning Pas-de-la-Casa-to-Port d'Envalira-Soldeu fartlek loop closed at three-hours-eighteen on the closing 1,742-metre average altitude reference, with a closing 6.88-watts-per-kilogram thirty-one-minute climbing-window peak across the closing Port d'Envalira summit segment — the cleanest single-loop high-altitude reading any pre-Tour build the closing post-2023 Pogačar cycle has tabled. The closing combined Andorra week-twenty endurance window now reads at twenty-three hours forty-six minutes across the closing six-loop reference, four percent above the closing 2025 pre-Tour Sierra Nevada twenty-week reading.
The closing pre-Tour de France maillot jaune outright now reads at 2/5 across the closing major UK books with the closing Tour de Suisse GC outright opening at 4/6 as the closing 14-21 June Davos Grand Départ window opens twenty-nine days from the closing Friday-morning readout. The closing combined Tour de Suisse and Tour de France public-market probability across the closing two-race UAE pre-Tour reference reads at 78%, the cleanest single-rider pre-Tour readout the closing post-2023 UAE WorldTour brief has produced.
The closing UAE Team Emirates-XRG Pogačar-Ayuso-Almeida three-rider Davos co-leadership block reforms Sunday morning at the closing 06:42 Pas-de-la-Casa service-course depart, with Almeida formally arriving from the closing Sierra Nevada twin-week reset and Ayuso pivoting in from the closing Andorra-La-Vella secondary altitude reference. The closing combined three-rider Davos build window opens onto the closing 14-21 June Tour de Suisse eight-stage frame with the closing Pogačar-Almeida twin-card co-leadership reference signed off by sport-direction lead Matxin Fernández.
The closing UAE pre-Tour build now sits two days from the closing Sunday Davos co-leadership reset, with the closing combined Tour de Suisse and Tour de France pre-Grand-Départ window reading at fifty days from the closing Voiron-Voreppe team time trial start. The closing pre-Davos Pas-de-la-Casa twenty-third week brief reads as the cleanest single-rider pre-Tour signature output the closing post-2023 UAE WorldTour calendar has produced.
The closing Friday-morning checkpoint readout has been formally signed off by sport-science lead Bilbao on the closing single-card pre-Davos Pas-de-la-Casa reference, with the closing combined twenty-day signature output now sitting at a closing 489-watt average twenty-minute peak across the closing thirty-checkpoint window — the cleanest single-rider pre-Tour signature output any post-2023 WorldTour altitude block has produced. The closing post-Davos Andorra reset opens onto the closing Tour de Suisse Grand Départ reference twenty-eight days from the closing Friday-morning readout.
The closing pre-Tour maillot jaune market closed the closing UK book at 09:14 local with Pogačar 2/5 holding from a closing Friday pre-dawn 2/5 open and Vingegaard 7/2 from a closing 4/1 Wednesday-evening open after the closing Giro d'Italia 2026 Stage 6 Naples sprint defence and the closing pre-Blockhaus first-mountain-summit reference. The closing pre-Tour podium-outright frame contracts to Pogačar-Vingegaard top-two-finish at 4/7 across the closing major UK and French books.
