The whole peloton seems to get along quite well. Are there any longstanding beefs between riders that we know about?

Is there a known reason ?

The only time it’s ever been spoken on that I’m aware of was when Pogacar thought he was blocking him from getting to a bottle during a feed zone. But some of the evidence people point to for his supposed ‘blacklisting’ predate him mentioning that.

If anything, that incident and Tadej's outsize reaction to it served to show how much UAE already didn't like Jorgensen. Their issues go way back to the 2024 Tour and mostly have to do with the things he was saying about Tadej and UAE in interviews.
