Eight months after becoming the youngest post-war winner of the Tour de France, Felice Gimondi triumphed over the cobbles of northern France.

PARIS, France: Tadej Pogacar said he was looking forward to taking some time off and enjoying the “small things” in life after making Tour de France history on Sunday. Pogacar joined an elite club of riders to have won the sport’s greatest race five times: Jacques Anquetil, Eddy Merckx, Bernard Hinault and Miguel Indurain. But he was not interested in thinking about joining such lofty company. “Right now I just want to enjoy the moment of winning the Tour,” he said. “If it’s the fifth or the first, it doesn’t matter — it’s unbelievable to wear the yellow jersey and to cross the line in Paris winning it. “I will just enjoy this moment, not thinking about any history, not thinking about (joining any club). “I just want to live this moment, come back home, relax, enjoy the small things of life. “I’m really happy and proud to win a fifth Tour.

LE LIORAN, France: Four-time champion Tadej Pogačar dealt his rivals another crushing blow by winning the 10th stage of the Tour de France on Tuesday to extend his already commanding overall lead. “You never know how long it lasts,” said Pogačar, who is on course to equal the record for Tour wins. Only Belgian Eddy Merckx, Spaniard Miguel Indurain and Frenchmen Jacques Anquetil and Bernard Hinault have five Tour victories to their names. “We just need to be grateful for this moment to be riding in the biggest race of the world,” the 27-year-old Pogačar said. Pogačar, who had already sapped his rivals’ morale with victory on the iconic Col du Tourmalet on Thursday, again stamped his authority with a break just over 900 meters from the summit of the Col de Pertus, the penultimate climb on Tuesday’s hilly stage. Pogačar’s main challenger Jonas Vingegaard couldn’t follow and Pogačar quickly made ground on Richard Carapaz before powering past him 200 meters before the summit.
