The two-time Tour de France champion from Slovenia further cut into Jonas Vingegaard’s lead with a sudden acceleration near the finish of a long and brutal ascent concluding Friday’s Stage 13.
“Even if we didn’t get the stage win, it was still a victory in the battle for the yellow jersey,” Pogacar said.
PHOTOS: Kwiatkowski wins mountaintop Tour stage, Pogacar cuts into Vingegaard's lead with late attack Pogacar crossed the line in third position behind Kwiatkowski and Maxim van Gils, four seconds ahead of Vingegaard. He was awarded a time bonus of four seconds for his third-place finish to cut Vingegaard’s overall lead to just nine seconds ahead of two big mountain stages in the Alps this weekend before Monday’s second rest day.
Friday’s first attack took place immediately after the start of the 138-kilometer trek, with a pair of Lotto-Dstny riders trying to jump out of the pack. The peloton quickly reeled them in.
