On Thursday evening, Movistar announced the return of their hit series El Día Menos Pensado. Three years after the release of the fourth and so far final season, the team is coming back with the fifth season. Movistar has also revealed that the fifth season will be available for streaming on Movistar+ starting in January.
The first four seasons of El Día Menos Pensado covered the cycling years 2019, 2020, 2021, and 2022 consecutively. Over the past years, the series gained a cult status in the cycling world due to the many internal conflicts between riders like Marc Soler, Alejandro Valverde, and Miguel Ángel López.
Whether the new season, which follows the riders during the 2025 season, will once again be full of internal tensions and conflicts remains to be seen. A true día menos pensado (the least expected day) has yet to be identified for the men's team. The men's squad only achieved nine wins in 2025 and did not win any stage in the Grand Tours.
