Pogačar’s finish-line gadget revealed: it was a Whoop heart-rate sensor
At Strade Bianche, Tadej Pogačar’s finish-line celebration revealed a small black sensor under his skinsuit. Cyclingnews confirms it’s his Whoop wearable (likely the 5.0) used to track metrics like heart rate, HRV, and sleep. While Whoop is usually worn on the wrist, it can be positioned elsewhere on the body, and in this case appears to have been held in place by the sleeve. The exact reason for its placement remains unclear, and his Strava posting didn’t include heart-rate or power data.
