Discount him at your peril. Tadej Pogacar (UAE Team Emirates) put in a timely reminder of his class with victory in Stage 6 as defending champion Jonas Vingegaard (Jumbo-Visma) wrested the yellow jersey from the shoulders of Jai Hindley (Bora-hansgrohe).
CAUTERETS-CAMBASQUE, France : Tadej Pogacar bounced back in vintage fashion to win the sixth stage of the Tour de France on Thursday, gaining a psychological edge over Jonas Vingegaard even though the defending champion took the overall leader's yellow jersey.
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.
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.
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).
LARUNS, France : Defending champion Jonas Vingegaard laid down an early marker on the Tour de France with a brutal attack that left his main rival Tadej Pogacar gasping for air in the first mountain stage on Wednesday.
Should cycling have a red and yellow card system to encourage riders to take fewer risks? That was the debate on The Breakaway after Mathieu van der Poel (Alpecin–Deceuninck) was penalised for bumping Biniam Girmay (Intermarche–Circus–Wanty) in the finale to Stage 4 at the 2023 Tour de France as he teed up team-mate Jasper Philipsen for victory. Ad While Van der Poel was relegated to 22nd place, fined 500 Swiss francs, and docked 11 green jersey points and 13 UCI points, it seemed a small punishment given Philipsen and Alpecin–Deceuninck were left celebrating a second straight win.
Jasper Philipsen was made to wait to start his celebrations after sprinting to victory on stage three of the Tour de France as Adam Yates retained the yellow jersey in Bayonne.
