- Vingegaard to wear yellow on Champs Élysées
- Pogacar ends on positive while Pinot puts on a show
Jonas Vingegaard in effect sealed back-to-back wins in the Tour de France after defending his overall lead in the final mountain stage of the three-week race. With only Sunday’s processional stage to central Paris to come, the Dane will, barring accidents, wear the final yellow jersey on the Champs-Élysées.
In a duel that revisited the most intriguing days of this year’s Tour, Tadej Pogacar out-sprinted his Danish rival at Le Markstein, in the Vosges. Pogacar, whose overall challenge had collapsed midweek in the Alps, had been determined to end the Tour on a positive note.
