Jonas Vingegaard and Tadej Pogacar are again proving themselves the unquestioned, strongest riders at the 2024 Tour de France. On the final climb of the stage 15 queen stage, this time it was the reigning Tour de France champion who made the first move.
Although a strong group of five including former Grand Tour winners Jai Hindley and Richard Carapaz, plus Enric Mas, Laurens De Plus and Tobias Johannessen were up the road, at just over 10km to go, the breakaway's hopes were all but diminished as Matteo Jorgenson pulled over and Jonas Vingegaard attacked with Tadej Pogacar straight on his rival's wheel. With 9.3km to go, the duo had caught Mas and Carapaz although to be fair to him, the latter managed to hold the wheel. Around 15-20 seconds further down the climb, Remco Evenepoel was picking his own way through the remainder of the breakaway, attempting to limit his losses.
