Tadej Pogačar is bracing himself for an 'insane' atmosphere on Alpe d’Huez at the Tour de France on Friday.
The mountain stages at this year’s Tour culminate with an Alpe d’Huez double header, and while Saturday’s stage 20 is the far tougher day of racing, it’s Friday’s stage 19 that takes the traditional route up the ski resort by way of the famous 21 hairpin bends.
