Tadej Pogacar clinched his 12th stage win at the Tour de France by claiming victory in stage four, which saw him regain the leader’s yellow jersey in an exciting fashion. The stage marked the first significant mountain stage of the race, with general classification favorites on edge as UAE Team Emirates made a strong statement in their bid to reclaim the title from Jonas Vingegaard and Visma-Lease a Bike.
As the race progressed from Italy to France, overnight leader Richard Carapaz quickly fell behind as UAE Team Emirates launched a powerful attack near the top of the challenging climb up the Col du Galibier. The two-time champion, Pogacar, then further solidified his position as leader by extending his lead during the descent to the finish in Valloire, crossing the line 35 seconds ahead of Remco Evenepoel, with Vingegaard finishing two seconds later in fifth place.
Pogacar, a 25-year-old from Slovenia, now sits atop the general classification standings, leading Evenepoel by 45 seconds, with Vingegaard trailing a further five seconds behind. The stage win and jersey reclaim mark a significant moment in Pogacar’s quest to defend his title at the Tour de France. More updates on the race are expected to follow as the competition progresses.
