British cyclist, UAE Team Emirates rider
Søren Waerenskjf8ld has won stage 11 in a sprint into Nevers, edging Olav Kooij and Milan Fretin as Pogacar extends his overall lead. The race featured a chaotic sprint, crashes, and radio problems for several riders, while Uno-X Mobility's Waerenskjjold claims a landmark victory.
On stage 13 of the Tour de France, Tom Pidcock finishes third after a late breakaway, earning four bonus seconds and climbing to fourth overall. Mauro Schmid wins the stage from Tejada, with Pogacar extending his overall lead as the race heads into the mountains.
Pogacar has a commanding lead entering the final mountain tests, but Stage 18 has seen Brandon McNulty withdraw and illness spread within UAE Team Emirates, raising concerns for the rest of the race as Alpe d’Huez looms.
