9:30 a.m.: The stakes of the race
A nightmare for the peloton. After a daunting stage that took the Tour de France riders to the Col du Granon yesterday, here is a new trio of impressive cols today, with the Galibier, the Croix de Fer and the Alpe d’Huez to conclude. While the Jumbo-Visma and Vingegaard overthrew the Tour de France yesterday, what will Pogacar’s strategy be today? The legs may squeak, but a great battle is still ahead.
