Which team does Tadej Pogačar ride for in the 2026 Tour de France?

Tadej Pogačar rode for UAE Team Emirates XRG in the 2026 Tour de France.

The Emirati squad is a UCI WorldTeam and one of professional cycling’s strongest stage-racing organisations. Pogačar joined the team in 2019 after beginning his professional career with UAE’s predecessor, UAE Team Emirates, and quickly became its principal general-classification leader.

The team’s name reflects sponsorship changes rather than a different sporting organisation. It raced as UAE Team Emirates for several seasons before energy company XRG became a co-title partner, producing the current UAE Team Emirates XRG name. Official listings often use a hyphen—“UAE Team Emirates-XRG”—but that punctuation difference does not change the answer.

Pogačar’s association with the team is especially notable because he won his first Tour de France in 2020 and added further overall victories while wearing its colors. The other options are rival WorldTeams, not the team representing Pogačar in the 2026 Tour.
