GC Update Paris-Nice 2025 after stage 4 - Jonas Vingegaard takes yellow jersey ahead of Jorgenson, Almeida comes closer to Visma duo
CyclingWednesday, 12 March 2025 at 17:15
Stage 4 of Paris-Nice delivered a lot of action, from everything between a race neutralization, lots of attacks on the final climb and a yellow jersey chance. We take a look at the new overall classification after the first mountain stage.
João Almeida won the stage after an incredibly comeback in the final meters and climbed to 5th position, now 37 seconds back on race leader Jonas Vingegaard. The Dane took over the yellow jersey from his teammate Matteo Jorgenson who lost a few seconds at the finish line.
Vingegaard now leads the race with 5 seconds over Jorgenson whilst in third place sits Mattias Skjelmose and several riders in very close proximity. He, Florian Lipowitz and João Almeida are separated by a mere 4 seconds; whilst THymen Arensman and Brandon McNulty remain the only other riders within a minute of the lead.

- somewhere Andy Hampten is chuckling thinking "toughen up Jonas".mij13-03-2025
- 2021 Tour, not 2022. Merlier and Philipsen both went. Merlier won stage 3 and was clearly the fastest sprinter. Then they immediately changed the lineup for stage 4 with Merlier working leadout for Philipsen. That led to the first win for Cav that year and jasper came in 3rd. Jasper didn't win a single stage that year. Very odd to me that the team neglected the clearly faster rider immediately after winning a stage. Merlier was pretty dominant all of last year from UAE Tour to Euro Championship. The only other bunch sprinter to have a similar level was Milan, and that's continued this year. I can't wait to see those two go head to head at the Tour. Two very different styles for the two current bestEvan12-03-2025
- Sorry you have lost me there again. I can't decifer the point you are making.roadman5412112-03-2025
- Exactly, just showing the boys how you bring your leader back to the front.Mistermaumau12-03-2025
- If Skjelmose doesn't win tomorrow he has very little chance against Pogi on Mur de Huy in FWvappaxbipmv12-03-2025
- The decision to neutralize the race was so impulsive. The bad weather, in total, lasted 10-15 minutes. The stop worsened the situation: no movements -> no body warmth-> riders froze.
