Jonas Vingegaard and Tadej Pogacar will go into the final week of the Tour de France still separated by just 10 seconds after the slopes of Mont Blanc failed to find any difference between the leading duo.
Wout Poels, the 35-year-old veteran of 10 Tours, took his first career stage win in Saint-Gervais some six minutes before Vingegaard and Pogacar crossed the line shoulder to shoulder, with Pogacar’s latest attempt to distance the yellow jersey coming to nought.
