Tour of Qatar
--
Preview

One of the premier sprinter stage races, the Tour of Qatar is a ManGame staple since 2008. We're at it again early in the 2026 season as the world's top sprinters battle it out for a prestigeous win - and a ton of ranking points.

Profile

Nothing new to see here â€“ five sprint stages and an epilogue to cap things off.

It's such a deep field here with 12 80+ sprinters and a total of 18 78+ sprinters. Defending champ pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2026/Micros/ela.png

Farantakis is here again, as are 2024 winner pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2026/Micros/blt.png

Gaviria and 2023 winner pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2026/Micros/ced.png

Philipsen.

But there's a decent chance we get a new name on the list of winners. Contenders for that are pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2026/Micros/aab.png

Halvorsen, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2026/Micros/zal.png

Kanter and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2026/Micros/rab.png

Kooij, among others. Most of the top sprinters bring decent lead-outs, and it will be an interesting plot to watch which teams will form the most dominant trains.

Andersen,

Ganna and

Leung are the top favorites for the final stage, while pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2026/Micros/evo.png

Kemboi and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2026/Micros/ela.png

Farantakis stand out as the sprinters who could put their finishing touches on their GC campaign.

Here in spirit more than anything else. Hoping for one good sprint from Lund for a stage top 10 but I won't get my hopes up for anything!

Thanks for the preview!

This is a super interesting race for us as the ceiling is sky high but we could also leave disappointed very easily. Past has shown that the top favourites dont always perform all that great but Kemboi is clearly a podium contender here.

I decided to bring our top leadout here. Is it needed here despite the strong field? Probably not but i was not willing to take any risks in what is surely Kembois most important race of the season.

Kooij might not be the fastest here, but he is one of the better prologue riders among the sprinters, which means that if he can sneak into a couple of podiums he should be set for a good GC.
