Pogacar pulverises opposition at Tour de France

Tadej Pogacar extended his overall lead at the Tour de France to more than three minutes on Sunday with a convincing second straight stage win in the Pyrenees.

The Slovenian dropped the last of his rivals with five kilometres to go after five more Pyrenean peaks.

A valiant Jonas Vingegaard could only finish 1 minute and eight seconds adrift in second, with Remco Evenepoel in third at 2min 51sec on the day.

SPONSOR AD

As Pogacar crossed the line at the magnificent Plateau de Beille deep in the Pyrenees, resplendent in his yellow outfit, he racked up a second straight iconic mountaintop triumph and a 14th Tour de France stage win aged just 25.
