The expected general classification fireworks did not materialise on stage 19 of the Tour de France, as Thymen Arensman won the final Alpine stage of this punishing race in La Plagne.
Tadej Pogacar followed Jonas Vingegaard over the line just behind Arensman, a fourth overall crown now looking safe with his lead at four minutes 24 seconds over Vingegaard, who took back a couple of bonus seconds but nothing more on this final opportunity to make major changes to the standings.
