Peter Sagan rainbow jersey.jpgVideo: Peter Sagan on what it means to wear the rainbow jersey
Peter Sagan hopes to end the Tour de France in the green points jersey for the fifth consecutive year, one short of Erik Zabel’s record – but he’ll be starting the race in the rainbow jersey of world champion.
The Slovak rider launched a late attack to pull off a stunning victory in Richmond, Virginia last September to win the world championship.
In this video from the UCI, he talks about what wearing the rainbow bands means to him. The video also features contributions from Tinkoff staff, as well as his team mate – and brother – Juraj.
With the Tinkoff team set to fold at the end of the season, Sagan has been linked with a moved to the Germany-based team Bora-Argon 18, which is also reportedly switching its bike sponsor to Specialized – the brand, of course, that he currently rides.
Simon joined road.cc as news editor in 2009 and is now the site’s community editor, acting as a link between the team producing the content and our readers. A law and languages graduate, published translator and former retail analyst, he has reported on issues as diverse as cycling-related court cases, anti-doping investigations, the latest developments in the bike industry and the sport’s biggest races. Now back in London full-time after 15 years living in Oxford and Cambridge, he loves cycling along the Thames but misses having his former riding buddy, Elodie the miniature schnauzer, in the basket in front of him.
