Two-time Tour de France champion Tadej Pogacar claimed a 10th career stage win at cycling's biggest race on Thursday after launching a stunning counterattack and dropping defending champion Jonas Vingegaard in the finale.
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.
It could be a day for a breakaway as the Tour de France heads into the Pyrenees for the first time on Stage 5. It's been a hugely eventful start to the Tour, with Tuesday's stage seeing three crashes in the finale, to go with the early dominance of UAE Team Emirates. Ad And after a couple of days for the sprinters, it's onto more hilly terrain as we get our first look at the mountains in this year's edition.
SAN SEBASTIAN, Spain: Several Tour de France riders suffered punctures due to nails on the road in the finale of the race's second stage in San Sebastian on Sunday.
Did Simon Yates (Jayco-AlUla) let his twin brother win the opening stage of the 2023 Tour de France? That was the big debate on The Breakaway after a thrilling first chapter saw Adam Yates (UAE Team Emirates) take a maiden victory at the Tour. The pair combined magnificently to open up an advantage on a select group containing pre-race favourites Jonas Vingegaard (Jumbo-Visma) and Tadej Pogacar (UAE Team Emirates), ensuring it would be a famous day in the Yates household and the rarest of one-two finishes.
Tom Pidcock (Ineos Grenadiers) wrote off his own hopes of winning the yellow jersey at the 2023 Tour de France before the first pedal stroke, telling Eurosport he was “not good enough” to top the general classification. The multi-talented Brit, who won atop Alpe d'Huez last year after a descending masterclass, said he would target stage victories again and «see what happens on GC».
Mark Cavendish (Astana Qazaqstan) is among the headline speed acts at the 2023 Tour de France – but who will prove the strongest in the bunch sprints at cycling’s showpiece event? Cavendish is targeting an outright record 35th stage win at the Tour in July, which would move him clear of Belgian great Eddy Merckx. One problem: Eurosport expert Robbie McEwen doesn’t fancy him and believes he only has a 1% chance of winning a stage. Ad We asked former Australian sprinter and 12-time Tour stage winner McEwen to rank the sprinters in France and, perhaps surprisingly, Cavendish is nowhere to be seen in the top three despite his return to winning ways at the Giro d’Italia.
