Tadej Pogacar can tick off another day at the Tour de France. The UAE Emirates-XRG rider briefly appeared interested in fighting for the stage victory, but ultimately left the honours to the riders in the breakaway. Mathieu van der Poel of Alpecin-Premier Tech went on to win the stage.
Pogacar was quick to congratulate Van der Poel after the finish. “You won?” he asked the Dutchman before offering his congratulations and posing together for a selfie. Van der Poel had spent much of the demanding stage on the attack before completing the job at the finish.
