One day after crashing, the 3-time champion powers through the Pyrenees to overtake Ben Healy and put himself 3½ minutes of main rival Jonas Vingegaard.

Tadej Pogačar has powered to an impressive stage win on the first day in the Pyrenees to take back the Tour de France yellow jersey.

The multi-ramped 13.5km ski station climb has hosted some barnstormer yellow jersey battles, most recently when Vingegaard and Wout van Aert turned the screw on Pogačar to romp to a victory that sealed the Dane’s first Tour de France win.
