Finn Fisher-Black: 'Pogacar is starting to grow bigger than the sport' - The Domestique Hotseat
Description
Finn Fisher-Black takes the Domestique Hotseat with Aidan Burgess in the lead-up to the 2025 Vuelta a España. At just 23 he has already ridden for Jumbo-Visma, UAE and now Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe, chasing the opportunities that can shape a career in the WorldTour.
He recalls the infamous night-time TTT in Barcelona, convinced on the start line that he would crash, and speaks candidly about life inside UAE where Almeida and Ayuso fought for leadership while Pogacar’s authority was never in doubt. He explains why Red Bull felt like the right move, tips Florian Lipowitz as a potential Grand Tour winner, and sets his own sights on stage victories and week-long races rather than the GC battle.
Fisher-Black also shares his view of Pogacar as a superstar who may already be bigger than the sport, reflects on being thrown straight into the WorldTour alongside Wout van Aert and Jonas Vingegaard, and argues that riders at Amstel Gold should actually finish the beer on the podium.
A candid conversation filled with sharp takes, ambition and insight from one of the brightest young riders in the peloton.
