In episode six of our series taking you behind the scenes of Paul Seixas's début Tour, we look at the 19-year-old's meteoric rise in the context of a sport increasingly obsessed with youth.
As Seixas's podium and white jersey bids gather momentum, Daniel Friebe speaks to his first coaches in Lyon about how much of his story does – and doesn't – apply to other aspiring pro riders. We also hear from a top agent and team bosses about why WorldTour outfits are now recruiting riders in their mid-teens, in their desperate search for the next Seixas. Décathlon fought off stiff competition to lock him in when he was just 14 – but now that they have him, why are the French team still having to work hard to rein him in? Their head sports director, Luke Rowe, tells us.

This episode is available ad-free on our Friends of the Podcast feed. Subscribe at thecyclingpodcast.com Lees meer
The fifth instalment of our wall-to-wall, behind-the-scenes look at Paul Seixas’s début Tour de France begins where Seixas’s love affair with cycling and the Tour also started, in Magland, just a few kilometres from the stage 15 finish on the Plateau de Solaison.
It was indeed an intense and emotional few days for the 19-year-old, as Daniel Friebe reports in this episode. As always, we hear from team-mates, coaches and opponents, as Seixas underlines his credentials as the man most likely to end Tadej Pogačar’s reign. Of course no one is any closer to knowing when that will be, or indeed how Pogačar will fall or abdicate.

In episode four of our series taking you behind the scenes of Paul Seixas’s début Tour, we begin with a trip down memory lane, to 1987, when another young Frenchman carried the hopes of the nation. Jean-François Bernard was his name, and we meet him in the fourth instalment of Ça Revient.
Other interviewees in this episode include Tour boss Christian Prudhomme, Seixas’s coach Alexandre Pacot, his all-terrain bodyguard Tiesj Benoot – and of course Seixas himself.

This episode is available ad-free on our Friends of the Podcast feed. Subscribe at thecyclingpodcast.com Lees meer
In episode three of our Tour-long series following the fortunes of French prodigy Paul Seixas, we focus on his first major test on the Col du Tourmalet. It would end up being a highly promising performance by Seixas, but also one that highlighted the dominance of Tadej Pogačar and UAE Team Emirates.
Cue some fairly bleak predictions about how much suspense is still left in this Tour, and some soul-searching about the very future of the sport. What can be done to spread wealth and talent more widely across the WorldTour? And, might UAE be poised to sign Seixas and tighten their grip even further?
If you don't find definitive answers here, the episode should certainly give you much to ponder.

Paul Seixas's first Tour de France has been the subject of feverish expectation, and the wait was finally over when the 19-year-old phenom rolled down the start ramp in Barcelona on Saturday.
In part two of our Tour-long series — not just following Seixas but also exploring the reasons for France's 41-year drought in cycling's crown-jewel event — Daniel Friebe chronicles what turned into a baptism of fire, with mechanical mishaps, teammates crashing and, of course, those furnace-like temperatures.
The good news for Seixas, as the Tourmalet loomed, was that nothing he'd done so far had dampened the hype. In fact, quite the opposite...

"I wouldn't have bet a single centime on no Frenchman winning the Tour for forty years."
So said Bernard Hinault, the owner of what he called an "unwanted record" as the fourth decade since his 1985 victory was about to expire last July. "We haven't got any chance…" Hinault added in the same interview. Kevin Vauquelin's plucky seventh place on GC notwithstanding, it seemed unfathomable after three weeks that the drought wouldn't extend to forty-one years in 2026, forty-two and so on at least until Tadej Pogačar either began an inexorable slide or retired.
Unfathomable is also the adjective many long-in-the-tooth observers would use for the eventuality of Paul Seixas winning the 2026 race at age 19. It would certainly be historic, not only because Seixas would bring the Tour "home" for the first time since Hinault in 1985, but also because he would be the youngest ever winner: to be precise, 49 days younger than Henri Cornet in the Tour's second edition, way back in 1904.
Improbable it certainly sounds, and logic would suggest the same — and yet this summer France expects. Hopes. To a certain extent believes. And will certainly get extremely excited if, even after the first skirmishes with the Pyrenees in week one, the boy from Beaujolais has not been Pogcinerated out of contention.
Having witnessed Seixas's definitive coming of age at the Tour of the Basque Country in April, over three weeks in July, Daniel Friebe will take up potentially the story of the summer at the Tour de France. Not necessarily by chronicling Seixas's every pedal stroke but by examining the question of how France got here — now approaching half a century into one of professional sport's most agonising and baffling droughts — and how, one day either soon or still too far into the future for comfort, deliverance can and will finally arrive.
The 2026 Tour begins its journey in Barcelona…

S14 Ep75: The XL Tour de France 2026 Preview | Part Three | Seixas, Remco, the sprinters et al
2 juli 2026 · 1 uur 4 min
Join Lionel Birnie and Graham Willgoss as they complete a trilogy of episodes looking ahead to the 2026 Tour de France. Lees meer
With the big battle between Pogačar and Vingegaard covered in part one, and the route dissected in part two, this time it's a chance to take a deeper look at some of the other storylines and riders who are set to animate the Tour de France.
From the much-anticipated debut of French sensation Paul Seixas, to the joint-leaders of the Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe team, Remco Evenepoel and Florian Lipowitz, who else will challenge for the podium and the other top places on GC?
We weigh up a deep field of fast finishers and ask who will be left standing when the sprinting game of musical chairs comes to a halt. There's a visit to Coorevits Corner, we hear from the Voice of Radio Tour, and ask which teams really need a good Tour de France.
Parts one and two of The XL Preview series are online now.
Daily coverage of the Tour de France starts on Saturday, July 4.

S14 Ep73: The XL Tour de France 2026 Preview | Part One | The Heavyweights | Pogačar v Vingegaard
30 juni 2026 · 1 uur 9 min
Will it be Tadej Pogačar or Jonas Vingegaard? There's more to this year's Tour de France than these two, of course, but it's undeniable that the race for the maillot jaune will focus on the sport's two heavyweights (or should that be lightweights?) Lees meer
The 2026 Tour de France starts here. There are just a few days to go until the Grand Départ in Barcelona and The Cycling Podcast kicks off a three-part preview of the greatest race in the world by weighing up the two outstanding riders – the champion, Tadej Pogačar and the challenger Jonas Vingegaard.
Join Lionel Birnie and Graham Willgoss as they find out about the two men who have dominated the Tour de France since 2020. Graham speaks to journalist Andy McGrath, author of Unstoppable, a biography of the Slovenian, about the man aiming to join the five-time winner's club. And Lionel talks to a man our listeners will be very familiar with, Brian Nygaard, who has followed Vingegaard's career from the beginning.
Part two and three of The XL Preview series will cover the route, and all the other contenders to look out for, and will be released soon.

S14 Ep72: Life is Suisse
26 juni 2026 · 52 min
Donkeys beware, there’s enough chat about recent racing from Rose Manley and Lizzy Banks that they’re at risk of losing their hind legs. Lees meer
Rose and Lizzy tackle some major talking points from the Tour de Suisse and beyond. Like how might Zoe Backstedt shape up against Lorena Wiebes in future? What might Kasia Niewiadoma’s rumoured transfer to Lidl-Trek mean for the Polish champion and for Canyon-SRAM? And who should Team UAE-ADQ pick for the Tour de France Femmes considering their huge roster of climbing talent?
Plus there’s a message for our listeners from co-host Rebecca Charlton after she made her cancer treatment public last week.
Also on the agenda: legless donkeys, Lizzy the richest-woman-that-never-was and how a poo could disrupt the Canyon-SRAM team camp.

S14 Ep71: Pogačar Gets On A Swiss Roll
23 juni 2026 · 54 min
With the Tour de France now just ten days away, the Tour de Suisse was one of the final competitive opportunities for riders to impress their team management and earn selection for La Grande Boucle. Lees meer
Join Lionel Birnie and Graham Willgoss as they complete their own countdown to the 113th edition of the greatest race in the world.
After Jonas Vingegaard impressed at the Giro d'Italia, it was over to Tadej Pogačar to show what sort of condition he's in as he aims for a record-equalling fifth Tour title. In a shorter, but by no means less intense, edition of the Swiss stage race Pogačar left few people in any doubt that he's the number one favourite for the Tour.
Who else impressed in Switzerland, Slovenia and Belgium as the Tour beckoned? And which big name star will miss the race and what impact will that have on his team? We get deep into all that in our final episode of The Cycling Podcast's Attitude Camp.
Next week we complete our final preparations for the Tour de France with a bumper three-part preview, kicking off on Tuesday.

With the Tour de France just three weeks away, the mountain stages at the Tour Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes (aka the Dauphiné) was set to be a big test for two young riders who are set to make their debut appearances in La Grande Boucle. Lees meer
Lionel Birnie and Graham Willgoss wrap up an enthralling week of racing in the French Alps as Mexico's young pretender Isaac Del Toro continued his development into one of the finest stage racers in the world. We know he'll be a huge help to his UAE Team Emirates leaders Tadej Pogačar at the Tour but might he be podium material in his own right?
Meanwhile, the French sensation Paul Seixas and his Decathlon team endured a setback – perhaps a timely reality check to temper the already sky-high expectations ahead of the Tour?

S14 Ep69: Team Time Trial and Error
10 juni 2026 · 1 uur 10 min
Who would have thought it possible to take such a deep dive into a team time trial stage? Join Lionel Birnie and Graham Willgoss as they recap the story of the Tour Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes – the race formerly known as the Critérium du Dauphiné – so far. Lees meer
After two entertaining wins from the breakaway to kick things off, the 'new' team time trial format finally captured the imagination, perhaps because it's a dress rehearsal for the opening stage of the Tour de France in Barcelona in a few weeks' time.
How did the teams stack up against each other? Which squads got it right and who still has work to do?
And, now they have reached the halfway mark, who is poised to seize the yellow jersey in the mountains?

S14 Ep64: Not the Dauphiné
5 juni 2026 · 59 min
The build-up to the 2026 Tour de France starts here. It's not the Dauphiné because the race has been rebranded the Tour Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, which may take us a while to get used to. Lees meer
Join Lionel Birnie and Graham Willgoss as they are reunited to look ahead to the first big preparation race for the Tour, which starts on Sunday. With Jonas Vingegaard resting after a convincing victory at the Giro d'Italia, and Tadej Pogačar focusing on the Tour de Suisse, that puts the spotlight on the young French sensation Paul Seixas.
The Decathlon rider won Itzulia earlier in the spring to amplify the growing hype around him. France is starting to believe they finally have a successor to Bernard Hinault, the last French man to win the Tour.
But who stands in his way next week, and what other clues will we gain about who's on track for the Tour?
