American cyclist, UAE Team Emirates XRG
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.
Richard Carapaz has clinched his second Tour de France stage win in three days at Alpe d’Huez, elevating him as the mountains king while questions grow over Tadej Pogacar’s health and UAE Team Emirates as Stage 19 looms. Stage 20 saw Sepp Kuss suffer crashes that denied a first-stage victory, and illness within teams continues to shape the race.
Tadej Pogačar has secured a fifth Tour de France victory, joining a rare club of five-time winners. The Slovenian clinches the title after a tense final stage on the Champs-Élysées, with Remco Evenepoel second and Isaac del Toro third. Vingegaard crashes earlier in the race, and the finish is marked by a photo finish on Montmartre.
