Taking a Bow, a Stage, & a Yellow Jersey TdF26-46

Wow, that was impressive! Tadej Pogacar (UAE Team Emirates) went on the attack with five more kilometers to climb up the Tourmalet. He then rode alone for the next forty-five kilometers alone, increasing his lead on both the descent and the climb up to the finish in Gauarnie-Gedre. He finished two minutes and thirty-eight seconds ahead of Jonas Vingegaard, just shy of three minutes ahead of his own teammate Isaac Del Toro who with a group of seven many of whom are the other favorites for a high placing in the 113th Tour de France. The last guy to finish the stage (there were a couple who climbed off during the stage) was over forty-five minutes behind Tadej's finishing time. Fortunately for Lewis Askey (NSN Cycling) he was still inside of the time limit for the stage. Now the question remains, will the Maillot Jaune changed shoulders any more throughout this Tour? Unlikely.
