SAINT-LARY-SOULAN PLA D’ADET, France — Two-time champion Tadej Pogacar surged ahead on the last climb to win the mountainous 14th stage of the Tour de France and extend his overall lead to nearly two minutes on Saturday.
Pogacar caught up with and overtook his UAE Emirates teammate Adam Yates, while Vingegaard was initially dropped but showed good composure to limit the damage. After about two hours riders reached the first of the day’s two big “hors catégorie” climbs — a 19-kilometer grind up the Col du Tourmalet, one of the race’s most famed Pyrenean climbs.
A group of 10 riders formed a breakaway in Saturday’s stage, moving four minutes ahead of the yellow jersey group approaching the Tourmalet ascent.
