Tadej Pogacar Dominates Tour de France Mountain Stage

Tadej Pogacar asserted his dominance in the Tour de France by winning a challenging mountain stage, further solidifying his lead over rivals Jonas Vingegaard and Remco Evenepoel. Pogacar's strategic attack in the final kilometers allowed him to secure his 15th Tour stage victory, with Vingegaard lagging behind by 1:42. The intense competition saw Matteo Jorgenson briefly in the lead before Pogacar surged ahead.

The event's penultimate stage features demanding ascents, leading to an unconventional finish in Nice instead of Paris due to the upcoming Olympic Games.
