VIDEO: Maillot Jaune winning move? Tadej Pogacar leaves Jonas Vingegaard with 5km to go on stage 15 of 2024 Tour de France
Cycling
The Plateau de Beille climb has a reputation of being a Tour de France decider. Often, whoever wins on its incredibly steep slopes ends up winning the Tour de France. With Tadej Pogacar now solo at the head of the race, could we be seeing another Maillot Jaune winning move?
After Vingegaard had attacked with just over 10km to go, the two historic rivals were one and two on the road. With the Dane unable to distance Pogacar however, the Team Visma | Lease a Bike leader was forced to ask his rival for a turn with just over 5km to go. Instead of doing a pull, Pogacar decided to launch a brutal attack, leaving Vingegaard in his dust.
See it for yourself in the video down below!

- Which is amazing given his weight and size, though, unlike in boxing and some rare instances we haven’t a clue what his fighting weight was. Anybody know why these “public” figures floated around are considered as being accurate?Jumpyjohn12-11-2026
- That’s a first point, everyone can have an off year or just stagnate before a new upward cycle. What would have been more interesting is including Skjelmose’s performance into the discussion, things have also been expected from him after several performances in the past but he hasn’t really progressed either, his TdF was basically what you would have expected but he’s 26 and been kind of stuck at this level for at least 2-3 years. Maybe he’s a late developer or maybe he needs something to change but as manager I’d be just as demanding and worried about both. Perhaps the recruitment concept was to have enough talent so at least one every year would be in shape and they’ve just been unlucky. Don’t want to rub it in but you could even say Mads lost a notch, so is it the riders or is it more to do with the team?Jumpyjohn12-11-2026
- Bingo...I was also going to say that young pretty women are obsessed Pogi fan girls... who are chasing him. All glossy "____" (blank) about Tadej. PS: You can all fill in the "blank" yourselves, whatever you prefer. The definition of glossy is: It looks unusually shiny, glazed over, watery, or vacant/unfocused.PogiSloFans12-11-2026
- Are you able to discuss ANYTHING without making a reference back to your Special 1? It’s almost as if you’re paid by his marketing team to improve his ranking in search results.Jumpyjohn12-11-2026
