ROCAMADOUR, France : On the verge of failing to win a third straight Tour de France, risk-taker Tadej Pogacar said he would come back hungry for more but ice cool Jonas Vingegaard, who is set to take his crown on Sunday, has warned that one title will not be enough for him.
Jonas Vingegaard (Jumbo-Visma) has heaped praise on his team-mates after he edged closer to a maiden Tour de France win. The Dane survived a late scare on the last descent of the decisive final time trial to Rocamadour — won by his Jumbo-Visma team-mate Wout van Aert — to strengthen his already vice-like grip on the yellow jersey. Ad/> If he navigates Stage 21 without accident or incident, the 25-year-old will win the 109th running of the Tour de France.
Wout van Aert watched his team leader defend the yellow jersey in a time trial in the penultimate day of the Tour with far more relish than he did two years ago at La Planche des Belles Filles. It certainly helped that Tadej Pogacar had a far larger deficit to close than the 57 seconds he overturned to reel in Primoz Roglic back in 2020 on what was the darkest day in Jumbo-Visma’s history – a day which spawned the now ubiquitous meme of Tom Dumoulin and a masked Van Aert watching on, helpless and in horror, as the Slovenian debutant pulled the rug from under his compatriot’s feet.

Jonas Vingegaard will claim the Tour de France in Paris on Sunday after another impressive performance in Saturday's time trial, the last competitive day of the event.
Team Jumbo's Vingegaard tops the overall standings 3min 34sec ahead of two-time defending champion Tadej Pogacar, while Geraint Thomas of Ineos Grenadiers, the 2018 winner, stands third at 8min 13sec.
