'We go into terrain that suits me more' – Jonas Vingegaard confident as Tour de France takes on new guise

Tour de France defending champion Jonas Vingegaard.

The Tour de France leader's yellow jersey sits on Tadej Pogačar's shoulders, but Jonas Vingegaard will believe the momentum of this Tour is with him as the race reaches the Pyrenees. The defending champion will reach the foot of the Col du Tourmalet on Saturday in third place overall, 1:14 off Pogačar, but buoyed by his stage victory at Le Lioran in midweek.

"We go into a terrain that suits me a bit more, so we're looking forward to the upcoming days," Vingegaard said in Pau after stage 13, where he finished in the front group at the end of a fraught day that saw the peloton splinter at various points on the road south from Agen.
