Wout Poels wins maiden Grand Tour stage as Jonas Vingegaard fends off Tadej Pogacar to maintain GC lead
Wout Poels (Team Bahrain Victorious) won Stage 15 of the Tour de France with Jonas Vingegaard (Jumbo-Visma) and Tadej Pogacar (UAE Team Emirates) crossing the line in tandem as the Dane sustained his 10-second lead in the GC. After a relative general classification stalemate on Stage 14 of the Tour, much was expected on Stage 15’s summit finish up Mount-Blanc, but, as with yesterday, drama, in the form of a crash, came early. Ad A fan appeared to clip Sepp Kuss with 128km to go.
