VIDEO: Tadej Pogacar's crisis on the Col de la Loze

Tadej Pogacar was left out of the group of favorites when he was leading the group of favorites Michał Kwiatkowski 8 km from the top of the Col de la Loze. The Slovenian from UAE Team Emirates did not transmit good sensations and was left much earlier than expected without hostilities having started or his great rival Jonas Vingegaard had attacked.

Sepp Kuss for Jumbo-Visma quickly pulled the group of favorites and they left in the group with the INEOS of Carlos Rodriguez and Adam Yates, who was allowed to continue. With Tadej was Marc Soler, who had been in the day's breakaway. The crash earlier in the day may have seen problems for the Slovenian late in the day.
