ISSOIRE, France: Pello Bilbao claimed a tear-jerking victory as he prevailed in the 10th stage of the Tour de France on Tuesday (Jul 11), less than a month after his Bahrain-Victorious team mate Gino Mader died following a crash in Switzerland.
UAE Team Emirates' tactics at the Tour de France came in for strong criticism on The Breakaway after Tadej Pogacar unravelled on Stage 5, with Robbie McEwen calling out «weak team directing». Pogacar arrived with major doubts over his form and fitness after fracturing his wrist at Liege-Bastogne-Liege in April, but made an aggressive start in his bid for a third Tour title as he grabbed a spree of bonus seconds on the opening two stages in the Basque Country.
Former Giro d'Italia champion Jai Hindley seized the Tour de France's yellow jersey on Wednesday after claiming the first mountain stage of this year's race during an eventful ride in the Pyrenees.
LARUNS, France: Tadej Pogacar was expected to attack in the Tour de France's first mountain stage, yet it was defending champion Jonas Vingegaard who struck first, leaving the Slovenian worried and hoping he will regain his best form before it is too late.
Jai Hindley ripped up the script for the Tour de France as he took the yellow jersey from Adam Yates with a breakaway victory in the Pyrenees while Jonas Vingegaard left chief rival Tadej Pogacar in his wake when he set off in pursuit. All the talk in the build-up to this Tour has been on the battle between defending champion Vingegaard and two-time winner Pogacar, but Hindley slipped into a strong breakaway on the road out of Pau and so ensured the general classification had been ripped up 163 kilometres later in Laruns.
Defending champion Jonas Vingegaard won a tactical battle with key rival Tadej Pogacar of UAE Team Emirates as Australian Jai Hindley won Stage 5 of the Tour de France on Wednesday.
Hindley leads Vingegaard with the Dane pulling off a major coup on the final mountain and now has a 53-second advantage on Pogacar in the overall standings, which took a major shake up.
Never underestimate a Giro d’Italia winner – and on the first day in the Pyrenees, the big general classification favourites did just that, allowing debutant Jai Hindley (Bora-Hansgrohe) into a dangerous break and paving the way for the Australia’s glorious win and the yellow jersey. Hindley, the 2022 Giro winner, now leads the Tour by 47 seconds on defending champion Jonas Vingegaard (Jumbo-Visma).
