The 2024 Tour de France is shaping up to be an epic showdown between Tadej Pogacar and Jonas Vingegaard, particularly evident during the mountainous stages. As Pogacar clinched his fourth stage win at Isola 2000, he extended his lead in the general classification, putting him nearly five minutes ahead of Vingegaard. The latter, still recovering from a serious fall earlier in the season, struggled to keep pace and focused primarily on defending his second place against Remco Evenepoel. Amidst the thrilling competition, the gendarmerie ensured that the race remained undisturbed, pushing aside spectators to protect the integrity of the event. With only two stages left, Pogacar appears poised for a potential third Tour victory, while Jorgenson fights to maintain his standing. This weekend promises a dramatic finish with challenging climbs and a decisive time trial that will determine the final rankings.
