As we head into the third week of the Tour de France, defending champion Tadej Pogačar (UAE Team Emirates-XRG) is in the yellow jersey, with almost a minute lead. However, it's far from a done deal that the Slovenian will be top of the podium in Paris on 27th July. Former winner Jonas Vingegaard (Visma-Lease a Bike) andRemco Evenepoel (Soudal-Quickstep), along with a host of big–name riders, are lurking not far behind, looking to lay down a challenge to Pogačar.
As the Tour heads into the big mountains, there is plenty of exciting action still to unfold, and a ton of climbing and mountain summit finishes. Today's stage 10 features 165.3 km and 4,400m of elevation gain – which concludes on the mountain summit of the Puy de Sancy. There's also the small matter of Bastille Day, and French riders including Kévin Vauquelin, Lenny Martinez and Romain Grégoire pushing the main GC contenders hard for French glory.
