“La Tête dans le guidon”: The thrill of the outdoors lands on RMC Sport
Gone are the days when sports on TV meant just stadiums. RMC Sport is expanding the playing field with a gem: the “100% sports outdoor” show. The channel hit the nail on the head by teaming up with the creative duo “La Tête dans le guidon”. These guys? They're total fanatics, hooked on tarmac and trails.

Pushing limits, whether it's on a mountain bike through alpine pastures or trail running in the heart of volcanoes.
This new show promises an absolutely immersive experience. We'll be right there with them, feeling the sweat through the screen, discovering secret spots, and capturing the very DNA of this community. Here's what's in store:
- Extreme challenges: self-supported crossings, breathtaking ascents, wild bikepacking adventures.
- Authentic encounters: with extreme riders, high mountain guides, and the craftspeople of the glide.
- Practical tips: for getting started, choosing your gear, and how to avoid ending up in a mess at the bottom of a ravine.

Champions League: Manchester City – Real Madrid, key takeaways from the clash
But a sports channel also lives in the moment. And what a moment that first-leg quarter-final was between the Sky Blues and the White House! Manchester City – Real Madrid is always heavyweight, full of suspense and spectacle. And the 2026 edition was no exception.
If you missed the live action, no problem: RMC Sport News and our top sleuth Fabrice Hawkins have prepared some razor-sharp analysis for you. The guy is an absolute well of knowledge on transfers and behind-the-scenes action, but when he breaks down a match, it's pure art. This time, he highlighted two profiles that were poles apart.
On one side, Aurélien Tchouaméni. What a game from the Frenchman! Fierce, imperious in duels, clean in distribution. He literally neutralised the City midfield in the first half. That's top-tier Tchouaméni, the one who makes you forget about absent players. On the other side, Tijjani Reijnders. The Real Madrid man, usually so precise, seemed switched off, almost ghost-like. He was chasing the ball, lost key duels, and never imposed his rhythm. When your maestro is a no-show, the team naturally suffers. As Fabrice pointed out, this contrast was one of the match's key factors.
So, will Real turn the tide at the Bernabéu? To find out, there's only one thing to do: stay glued to RMC Sport. Because the Champions League – we're your best seat in the house.
