Former rider and sports director Brian Holm has warned that his compatriot Jonas Vingegaard could be in major GC difficulties in this year's Tour de France if the Danish star cannot fend off the overall contenders currently snapping at his heels to move into second place.
Vingegaard is currently lying 3:36 back on race leader Tadej Pogačar (UAE Team Emirates-XRG) after stage 13, which was won by Mauro Schmid (Jayco-AlUla), and is just 30 seconds ahead of Remco Evenepoel (Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe). A further seven riders are at less than three minutes back, spearheaded by Tom Pidcock (Pinarello-Q36.5) in fourth after his long breakaway on Friday while the last, Lenny Martinez (Bahrain Victorious) in tenth, sits 2:58 down on Vingegaard.
