Another day, another score draw. Just as he has done in the Col de Joux Plane on Saturday, Tadej Pogačar (UAE Team Emirates) tested Tour de France leader Jonas Vingegaard (Jumbo-Visma) as best he could on the stage 15 summit finish, but after Vingegaard remained in contact all the way up the climb, Pogačar is now looking towards Tuesday’s uphill time trial to make a difference.
Still in second overall and crossing the line in 16th place behind stage 15 winner Wout Poels (Bahrain Victorious), Pogačar is now over five minutes clear of overall third-placed Carlos Rodríguez (Ineos Grenadiers), who suffered slightly on the final part of the climb.
