Overview
- Florian Lipowitz won the queen stage in a two-rider finish against teammate Giulio Pellizzari and moved into the race lead by four seconds.
- Laurence Pithie delivered multiple sprint victories for Red Bull–Bora–hansgrohe, including the reduced-field win on the Maribor to Celje stage.
- The race acts as a tune-up with only two WorldTour teams present, giving riders from smaller squads a chance to shine.
- Lipowitz has four professional wins but is still chasing his first WorldTour victory and is explicitly using this race as a hard test before the Tour de France.
- The Slovenia Tour finishes with a final stage from Litija to Novo Mesto and the result will be watched for clues about riders' form ahead of the early-July Grand Tour.
