Paula Blasi Tour de France Hopeful

Published August 1, 2026 · Updated August 1, 2026 · El País

Spanish cyclist Paula Blasi is seen as a potential Tour de France winner, though her team remains unconvinced.

The fifth modern women's Tour de France (August 1-9, Lausanne to Nice) will be the most challenging edition, featuring Spanish cyclist Paula Blasi as a strong contender. The 1,175km race includes 18,795m of elevation gain, a 21km time trial, and the iconic Mont Ventoux climb.

Blasi, a 23-year-old Catalan with backgrounds in running and triathlon, has only competed in the WorldTour for 1.5 years. Despite her potential, her team reportedly doubts her ability to win the prestigious event. capturengo.com
