Brandon McNulty claims another big victory! He won the Tour de Pologne in August

Last week, as part of the UCI WorldTour – which also includes the Tour de Pologne – two one-day races were held in Canada: Grand Prix Cycliste de Quebec and Grand Prix Cycliste de Montreal. The latter was won by Brandon McNulty of UAE Team Emirates-XRG, the winner of this year’s Tour de Pologne.

UAE Team Emirates-XRG continue their remarkable season. On Sunday, the team of Tadej Pogačar and Rafał Majka celebrated their 85th victory of the year in style. It was delivered by American rider Brandon McNulty, who has been in brilliant form this season. At the Grand Prix Cycliste de Montreal in Canada, he broke away from the peloton alongside Tadej Pogačar with two laps to go. The duo could not be caught, and McNulty crossed the finish line first. Polish fans know the American well — this year he won the ORLEN General Classification of the 82nd Tour de Pologne UCI WorldTour, while his team also triumphed in the Decathlon Team Classification.

“When you go one-two with a teammate, but when he’s World Champion and obviously the best guy in the world, it’s super special. That’s one of the most memorable days of my career so far. We made this move on the climb, and then it ended up a group of four, and then Tadej went [on the attack]. Then I was able to come across, and he waited for me, and he was kind enough to give me the win. So in the final, he decided to give it [the win] to me. So I’m really thankful for that. It was a super fun day” said Brandon McNulty.

For the 27-year-old, the victory at the Grand Prix Cycliste de Montreal is his first ever one-day win at UCI WorldTour level. Earlier this season — at the 82nd Tour de Pologne — he claimed his first WorldTour stage race overall title. On Polish roads he proved he is one of the best and most versatile riders, finishing 2nd on the mountain stage to Bukowina Tatrzańska and then decisively winning the individual time trial at the “Wieliczka” Salt Mine, sealing his overall triumph.

Brandon McNulty’s victory in Canada is yet another proof that the Polish race consistently attracts the world’s top riders. There are only two UCI WorldTour events left in the 2025 season — the Italian Monument Il Lombardia and the Tour of Guangxi stage race in China.
