After a brilliant time trail Jonas Vingegaard greatly increased his lead over Tadej Pogacar.
It's hard to see him lose the yellow jersey now.

Tomorrows stage is going to be a beast eek

Pogacar's broken "I'm gone, I'm dead" on the Col de la Loze. Vingegaard's increasing his lead.
Simon Yates is closing for third place.

Top climbing today by Felix Gall to win today's stage. Simon Yates finished 2nd.

However a blockage of the road stopped Vingegaard from catching the leaders
