Tajlandia zajmuje wyjątkowe miejsce na mapie Azji Południowo-Wschodniej. To jedyne państwo w tym regionie, które nigdy nie zostało skolonizowane przez zachodnie mocarstwa. Taka historia wykształciła w Bangkoku unikalną kulturę dyplomatyczną, opartą na pragmatyzmie i niezwykłej elastyczności. Jak wskazuje dr Barbara Kratiuk w programie „Rzecz o geopolityce”, współcześnie jednak ten dynamicznie rozwijający się kraj zmaga się z wewnętrznym kryzysem władzy, problemami gospodarczymi oraz napięciami w relacjach z sąsiadami.

Life in the Peloton is proudly brought to you by MAAP The men's Tour de France is over for another year, and what an epic week of racing we've just seen. Pogačar might have wrapped up the overall victory early on, but some amazing battles for the green, white, and polka dot jerseys, some big shifts in the rest of the top 10 in the final week, and an unbelievable finish in Paris made this a truly memorable edition of the race. Guys, Durbo's just finished his final Tour de France and is dialling in from a well-earned holiday to join me and Southam for this month's episode of The Race Communiqué where we're wrapping up the 2026 Tour de France. Of course, we've been dropping weekly wrap-up podcasts on the rest days, so we start this episode by spinning through the last week of racing. Having Southam on board to give us some insight into Richard Carapaz's audacious moves on those brutal final three stages to take two stages and the polka dot jersey is another reminder of how lucky we are to have Tom and Luke take us inside the pelo each month. A big topic of discussion over the last week of racing was the fans on Alpe d'Huez. Record-breaking numbers of spectators made the pilgrimage to the mountain, and it might have been a step too far. A brutal exit for Einer Rubio after a team car had to brake for a stumbling spectator really highlighted just how sketchy it can be up there, and hearing some of Durbo's war stories from the other end of the bunch is really eye-opening. Of course, Durbs wrapped up his 12th and final lap of France, and he takes us through the emotions of reaching Paris for the final time. Durbo's PeloChat takes us inside the seldom-discussed world of the grupetto. We spend a lot of the time focusing on the riders winning the bike races, but the guys at the back are probably suffering even more just to get to the finish within the time cut! Southam's call before the Tour de France about the Mega-Break was spot on, and we saw a few stages defined by absolutely massive moves with tens of riders in. In this month's Talking Tactics, Southam shares the secrets to getting into a breakaway, and just how bloody hard it can be! Guys, there is a lot to go through in this episode. As is often the case with the Tour, there are so many different stories to follow. Get yourself comfortable Cheers, Mitch The Race Communiqué is brought to you by TrainingPeaks!

Samuel Sánchez analiza junto a Joan Prats todo lo que ha dejado el Tour de Francia tras la quinta victoria de Tadej Pogačar. ¿Estamos ante la mejor versión de la carrera del esloveno? ¿Qué habría ocurrido sin el abandono de Jonas Vingegaard? ¿Ha dado Remco Evenepoel el paso definitivo para luchar por el amarillo? ¿Hasta dónde pueden llegar Isaac del Toro y Paul Seixas? Samu también rompe una lanza en favor de Juan Ayuso, en contra de buena parte de la opinión pública, y asegura que el español tiene un Tour de Francia en las piernas. Analizamos su potencial, su forma de correr, las críticas que recibe y qué tendría que cambiar para convertirse en un verdadero candidato a ganar la carrera más importante del mundo. Además, debatimos sobre la enorme velocidad del ciclismo actual, los récords de ascensión, los controles antidopaje realizados de madrugada a Pogačar y Vingegaard, los límites de la transparencia y cómo se puede hablar de rendimientos extraordinarios sin convertir cualquier duda en una acusación. Cerramos el programa buscando el puerto más duro de la historia de La Vuelta con el juego de “el ganador se queda”: Lagos de Covadonga, Cuitu Negru, Bola del Mundo, Gamoniteiru, Angliru y muchos más se enfrentan hasta que Samuel Sánchez elige al coloso definitivo.

Tour de France 2026 Stage 21: Van der Poel defeats Pogačar in epic Paris finale as the Tour comes to a close The 2026 Tour de France concluded with a spectacular finish on the streets of Paris as Mathieu van der Poel edged out Tadej Pogačar after an unforgettable duel over the Montmartre climbs and onto the Champs-Élysées. With the yellow jersey already secured, Pogačar still refused to settle for a ceremonial ride into Paris, attacking once again and producing one final battle that perfectly summed up this year's race. We break down the tactical showdown between two of the sport's biggest stars, how Van der Poel held his nerve to claim one of the most prestigious stage victories in cycling. We also reflect on the wider story of the 2026 Tour de France as Pogačar secured a fifth overall title, putting together another remarkable three-week performance that combined outright dominance with moments of selfless teamwork, including his support of teammate Isaac Del Toro in the fight for the final podium. From breakout stars and unforgettable stages to the biggest talking points of the race, we look back on everything that made this Tour so memorable. And with the men's race now complete, we take a look ahead to Tour de France Femmes. We preview the riders and stages to watch, the key storylines, and what you can expect from our daily coverage over the coming week.

Predsednik stranke Resnica Zoran Stevanović se je včeraj prvič odzval na novo afero poslanca Borisa Mijiča. Ostro je obsodil prenos podjetja Progros na Roka Snežiča. Kot je dejal, je Mijič s to potezo dokončno prestopil mejo po že številnih škandalih. Stevanović meni, da tako nima več moralne pravice sedeti v državnem zboru. V oddaji tudi o tem: - Napad v Berlinu - kombi zapeljal v množico, eden mrtev, več poškodovanih - Več kot 300 tisoč ljudi pobegnilo pred gozdnimi požari v Franciji in Španiji - Pred kolesarji na dirki po Franciji še zadnja etapa, Pogačar si je zagotovil peto zmago
V Parizu je vse nared za veliko slavje ob koncu dirke po Franciji. Že tretje leto zapored bo na Elizejske poljane v rumeni majici vodilnega prikolesaril Tadej Pogačar. S peto zmago bi se izenačil z rekordom največjih kolesarskih legend, kot sta Jacques Anquetil in Eddy Merckx. Športni direktor Pogačarjeve ekipe Andrej Hauptman ob tem priznava, da bo nervozen do zadnjega prevoženega kilometra. Drugi poudarki oddaje: - Bi selitve ministrstev prinesle prihranke ali dodatne stroške? - Nemčija v lovu za napadalcem na včerajšnji berlinski paradi ponosa - Nova britanska vlada išče načine za zniževanje visokih življenjskih izdatkov

Stage 19 of the 2026 Tour de France delivered one of the greatest spectacles in modern cycling. A 127.9km mountain stage from Gap to Alpe d'Huez, with 3,500 metres of climbing, always promised fireworks, but what unfolded on the Tour's most iconic climb exceeded every expectation. Richard Carapaz, Lenny Martinez and Sepp Kuss looked set to fight for the stage after an elite breakaway survived deep into the final ascent. But behind them, Tadej Pogačar had other ideas. Launching a devastating attack from the GC group, he rode alone up Alpe d'Huez, hunting down the breakaway one rider at a time before attacking again inside the final kilometre to claim one of the most memorable victories of his career. He didn't just win on cycling's most famous climb, he set the fastest ever ascent of Alpe d'Huez. It was a performance that felt almost impossible to comprehend. Was this the greatest ride of Pogačar's career? Is it one of the finest individual performances the Tour de France has ever witnessed? We break down every moment of an unforgettable afternoon in the Alps. We also discuss Carapaz's remarkable back-to-back mountain raids, Lenny Martinez's outstanding ride into second place, Remco Evenepoel strengthening his grip on second overall, and how the battles for the podium and polka-dot jersey have been transformed heading into the final weekend. Carapaz's efforts also moved him into the lead of the King of the Mountains competition, setting up a thrilling fight for the jersey. Ned Boulting and David Millar Breakdown Stage 19 of the Tour de France 2026.
VGV 16: Pogađamo koje su to osobine koje žene vole kod muškaraca (sve omašili) by Njuz Net
Stage 18 of the 2026 Tour de France was another huge day in the Alps, taking the riders 185.2km from Voiron to Orcières-Merlette with 3,900 metres of climbing. On paper, it looked like another day for the GC contenders—but instead, the breakaway finally had its moment. A world-class group fought all day for the stage, with Richard Carapaz, Matteo Jorgenson, Mauro Schmid, Valentin Paret-Peintre and Tobias Halland Johannessen all sensing a rare opportunity. When the attacks finally came on the final climb, it was Carapaz who made the decisive move, riding clear on the slopes to claim EF Education-EasyPost's first stage victory of the Tour after weeks of relentless attacking. Behind, the general classification battle never truly ignited, despite Red Bull-BORA-hansgrohe setting a hard tempo on the final climb. Tadej Pogačar, Remco Evenepoel, Isaac Del Toro and Paul Seixas all crossed the line together, meaning the fight for yellow—and the battle for the remaining podium places—remains delicately poised heading into the Tour's decisive mountain stages. However, there were signs that UAE Team Emirates-XRG may not be quite as invincible as they have looked. Brendan McNulty abandoned the race through illness, Adam Yates was dropped long before the finale, and for the first time in the high mountains, Pogačar looked noticeably lighter on support. Is that simply the cost of three demanding weeks, or is there finally an opportunity for his rivals to exploit? Elsewhere, Mads Pedersen strengthened his grip on the green jersey by comfortably taking maximum points at the intermediate sprint, putting himself back in control of the points classification after Jasper Philipsen's victory the previous day. Ned Boulting and David Millar Breakdown Stage 18 of the Tour de France 2026.

Lance, George, Sir Bradley, and Spencer Martin (aka The Professor) break down Remco Evenepoel's dominant Stage 16 time trial performance to take his second straight stage win and solidify second place overall behind Tadej Pogačar, Florian Lipowitz's race-ending crash, and how Isaac del Toro held off a surging Paul Seixas to set up a thrilling battle for the White Jersey. They also discuss new information about the middle-of-the-night testing protocol involving Vingegaard and Pogačar, preview Wednesday's stage, and take listener calls before answering yesterday's Ventum trivia with a new question to close.

Stage 16 of the 2026 Tour de France brought the race's only individual time trial: 26.1km from Évian-les-Bains to Thonon-les-Bains, featuring a punchy parcours with 500 metres of climbing that suited the all-rounders far more than the pure specialists. Remco Evenepoel reminded everyone why he is one of the greatest time triallists of his generation, storming to victory on Belgium's National Day to claim his 26th career TT win. Tadej Pogačar limited his losses superbly to finish second, while Mattias Skjelmose produced an excellent ride for third. Paul Seixas continued his remarkable Tour with fourth, narrowly ahead of Isaac Del Toro as the battle for the white jersey edged even closer. The overall classification remains largely unchanged. Pogačar still holds a commanding lead, while Evenepoel strengthened his grip on second place, with Jonas Vingegaard now out of the race after the crash on Stage 15. Behind them, however, the fight for the final podium position between Del Toro and Seixas is becoming one of the defining battles of this Tour. The biggest moment of the day came when Florian Lipowitz crashed heavily midway through his ride, forcing him to abandon the race. His exit reshapes the top 10, promotes a host of riders up the standings, and opens the door for Yannis Voisard to move into the overall top 10. We also discuss why this wasn't a course designed for pure time trial specialists. Filippo Ganna and Josh Tarling delivered the performances many expected, but on a climbing-heavy route, they were never likely to challenge for victory against riders like Evenepoel and Pogačar. And we caught up with Pete Kennaugh at the XDS-Astana team hotel on the rest day to hear his thoughts on how the race has unfolded so far, and we tackle the burning question: Was Jonas Vingegaard's crash a result of the doping test that woke him up in the middle of the night? Ned Boulting and David Millar break down Stage 16 of the Tour de France 2026.
Do konca Dirke po Franciji je le še pet etap, Tadej Pogačar pa ima vse v svojih nogah, saj ima pred Remcom Evenepoelom več kot štiri minute in pol prednosti. Belgijec je sicer dobil zadnji dve etapi, a pravi, da je drugo mesto njegov domet. Po odstopu Jonasa Vingegaarda pa v ospredje vse bolj vstopa zgodba o dopingu in nočnih testiranjih. Vabljeni k poslušanju.
This episode is available ad-free on our Friends of the Podcast feed. Subscribe at thecyclingpodcast.comThe 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.
Life in the Peloton is proudly brought to you by MAAP What a week of racing at the Tour de France! It's safe to say that with Jonas Vingegaard's unfortunate abandonment, the race for the podium has been blown wide open! I gave EF Education EasyPost DS, Tom Southam, a call to go over everything we've seen in the second week of the Tour and preview what's coming up. Kicking off with a recap of everything that's gone down both in and around the race last week, and it started with a dominant victory from Pogačar in Le Lioran. Some amazing instincts from Søren Wærenskjold saw him win the bunch sprint on stage 11 to continue Uno-X Mobility's success, before Tim Merlier reminded everyone that he's the fastest sprinter in the race with his third stage win of the Tour the next day. Stage 13 saw Mauro Schmid power his way into the mega break and grab a stage win for Jayco, so who better to chat to than his team mate, and regular “guest” on the Pod, Durbo. It was great to hear from Luke as he enjoys a well-earned rest day, and he gave us a great scoop on the team's tactics and how their game plan played out pretty much perfectly. The two mountain stages on the weekend weren't the only drama - a 2 am dope test for Jonas and Pogi had the media buzzing, so I had to ask Southam what he knows and what he's heard from the ground. Is it a bit of a flex from WADA, or is there something going on?! With Jonas' abandonment, and a mountain TT coming up, can Remco Evenepoel bag another stage win and close the gap to Pogi? Will Del Toro finish on the final podium? What about the green jersey battle between Pedersen and Philipsen? There's still so much to come, and I can't bloody wait to see how it plays out. Guys, it's a rest day, so pull another shot of espresso, sit back, and join me and Southam - dialling in live from EF's rest day Chateau - for some Tour de France chat.

We get into his near-perfect even pace, how wavelight technology has reduced the risk and unburdened the athlete to chase physiological limits, whether that cheapens anything, and why the 1500m record should surely be next.(00:35:23) The big story. Pogačar and Vingegaard were dope-tested at 5am and 2am on the morning of a mountain stage, and all hell broke loose. We explain why an 11pm to 6am block is normally sacrosanct and exempt from doping, but why allowances have to be made to test athletes within it on occasion. We the "serious and specific suspicion" exception that received judicial sign-off under French law, what that implies, and why we will probably never know. Vingegaard later crashed out with a broken collarbone, so we ask whether the two are linked, and the extent to which this is a wake-up call for cycling (and some of its fans), or just more of the same?(00:59:36) And finally, the Commonwealth Games open in Glasgow this weekend, pared back to ten sports and stuck behind a paywall. Did anyone notice? Has the world moved on? We say a fond, faintly baffled farewell.LinksSome stats from the one-sided World Cup FinalHow the Mile was won: Some analysis of Kerr's record, including the splits Gareth read outSome details on Josh Kerr's custom shoeRoss' brief thoughts on the early morning testing controversy on XMore detail on the exemption made, judicial approval and nature of suspicions (good), along with some speculation about Seixas and a call for transparency (silly)Vingegaard's team on the crash and possible reasons for it Hosted on Acast.

Rest day, and it's a big one — 43 voice notes to get through and only twenty minutes of the show that were meant for them.Max and Alex start on the 2am testing saga engulfing the GC battle — Vingegaard and Pogačar's out-of-hours tests, the ITA's "severe suspicions" line, and a very direct take from a rider with history on the subject that's got Max rethinking the whole thing.From there it's full voice note mode: Remco's TT gap, the AFL/cycling crossover conversation (yes, we're drafting Buddy Franklin onto a WorldTour team), an A2 Milk pitch for the show, and Max's top ten Melbourne sandwiches — Barry's Garage gets the nod.Big one: we're doing a Tour de France Femmes show starting August 1, and we need a co-host who actually knows the peloton. Got a suggestion? Get into our DMs.Plus — Max explains why he'd never marry Peter Sagan, does some very rough maths on how fast he could hold 30 minutes at threshold, and there's a Triple M cameo before sign-off.

Stage 15 of the 2026 Tour de France was another huge day in the mountains, taking the riders 183.9km from Champagnole to Plateau de Solaison with 3,950 metres of climbing. A blockbuster route produced another elite breakaway featuring Ben Healy, Tom Pidcock, Quinn Simmons, Richard Carapaz and, unusually, Adam Yates, who was sent up the road as a satellite rider for Isaac Del Toro. But none of that would become the biggest story of the day. Jonas Vingegaard crashed out of the Tour de France, bringing an abrupt end to one of cycling's greatest rivalries. His withdrawal transforms the fight for the podium, but it also raises fascinating questions about Tadej Pogačar. With his biggest rival no longer in the race, did Pogačar choonot to launch the kind of devastating attack many were expecting? Is that the greatest mark of respect he can give? And could this have been the final Tour de France of one of the defining riders of his generation? Despite the strength of the breakaway, UAE once again brought the race back together. With Del Toro and Pogačar driving the chase, the yellow jersey even sacrificed his own chances to try and deliver a stage victory for his teammate. In the end, it wasn't enough. Remco Evenepoel outsprinted Del Toro and Pogačar to take the stage, leaving us asking another question: have we ever seen the rider in yellow work so selflessly to try and win a stage for a teammate? Elsewhere, Jasper Philipsen reignited the battle for the green jersey by taking maximum points at the intermediate sprint, meaning the battle for green could go all the way. Bed Boulting and David Millar break down Stage 15 of the Tour de France.

Stage 14 of the 2026 Tour de France was the kind of day that felt decided before the racing had even begun. A brutal mountain stage from Mulhouse to Le Markstein Fellering, covering 155.3km with 3,800 metres of climbing, was always going to be a major test for the GC contenders. Before the stage, Tadej Pogačar was asked how UAE Team Emirates would approach the day. His answer was simple: "the guys know what to do." It was a quote that carried a sense of inevitability, a reminder that everyone knew what was coming, and there's nothing they can do about it. Chapeau to Tobias Halland Johannessen and Richard Carapaz for making it as far as they could up the final climb, the Col du Haag, but they got swept up by the GC big hitters in the end. But when the decisive moments arrived, Pogačar once again showed why he is the dominant force of this Tour. When he made his move, nobody could follow, and he rode to his 25th Tour de France stage victory and his fourth win of the 2026 race. Behind him, the battle for the podium is becoming one of the most exciting stories of the Tour. Jonas Vingegaard, Paul Seixas, Remco Evenepoel, Florian Lipowitz, Juan Ayuso and Isaac Del Toro are separated by small margins, and second place is looking far less secure than it did earlier in the race. We also ask what is happening at Netcompany-INEOS. A team with such a strong Tour de France history has struggled to make a significant impact this year, why have they been unable to influence the race? Ned Boulting and David Millar break down Stage 14 of the Tour de France 2026.
Johan Bruyneel and Spencer Martin discuss Mauro Schmid's win and Jayco-AlUla's team tactical masterclass on Stage 13, and go through the chaotic opening of the stage, which produced a massive 57-rider breakaway and a mad dash for the intermediate sprint, with Pedersen forced to chase for more than 40kms to ensure Jasper Philipsen didn't get back in the picture for Green. They also reveal some potential news about Pogačar's plans to contest the Vuelta a España after the Tour, before answering listener questions and previewing tomorrow's mountainous Stage 14.

They also preview tomorrow's Stage 11 and go through a few listener questions.

Today on the show: Everyone tried to beat Tadej Pogačar on Bastille Day, to absolutely no effect.

Stage 10 of the 2026 Tour de France marked the race's return from the first rest day with a 166.6km mountain stage from Aurillac to Le Lioran on Bastille Day. Featuring nearly 3,800 metres of climbing through the Massif Central, it was always expected to test the general classification contenders and once again, Tadej Pogačar delivered exactly what everyone had been anticipating. When Pogačar attacked on the Col de Pertus, what unfolded was a narrative that we've all seen before, many times. Nobody could follow, and Pogačar swallowed up Richard Carapaz, who lead the race, with no problem at all. Jonas Vingegaard once again was the best of the race, but for the first time in a long time, looked very much amongst the rest. Is his nailed on 2nd place in doubt? With the likes of Remco Evenepoel and the other GC contenders closing the gap, the battle for the remaining podium places is still very much alive, even if the fight for yellow is beginning to look increasingly one-sided. With the likes of Jonas Vingegaard, Remco Evenepoel, Isaac Del Toro and Paul Seixas fighting behind- there's still plenty to play for.
