Thank you for joining me for the coverage of the Tour de France 2025’s mountain time trial. Tadej Pogačar continues to make history, with his individual time trial win on stage 13, making him the youngest rider ever to get 21 Tour stage wins. He completed today’s 10.9km course in a time of 23mins, 36secs faster than second placed and GC rival Jonas Vingegaard (Visma-Lease a Bike). Despite losing more time to Pogačar, Vingegaard seemed happy with the day’s results. He told reporters:
Yesterday was one of my worst performances and today was one of my best. So, I think I can be happy with today.
You can read his post race comments here, Pogačar’s here and Remco Evenepoel’s here. As always, thank you so much for your lovely messages and thoughtful questions. It’s been a pleasure to cover the Tour de France 2025 stages but I’m now off to see the Tour in real life with a trip to France next week! I’ll be back for the Tour de France Femmes, so come find me then on the live blog.
Here’s today’s race report from Jeremy Whittle in Peyragudes:
Looking ahead to tomorrow, Matt has emailed in and is ready for the riders to tackle the Tourmalet on stage 14:
