Tadej Pogacar has secured a second victory at this year’s Paris-Nice, winning stage seven atop the Col de la Couillole, the highest summit of the race, and extending his overall lead.
Despite strong competition from David Gaudu and Jonas Vingegaard, who finished second and third respectively, the UAE Team Emirates rider launched into a powerful sprint over the last 200m to cross the line first, strengthening his hold on the leader’s jersey in the process.
