Pogacar Crushes Rivals, Solidifies Lead

OCCITANIE, FRANCE, JUL 18 – Tadej Pogacar won his fourth stage of the 2025 Tour de France with a 36-second lead, extending his overall advantage to over four minutes against Jonas Vingegaard.

  • Stage 13 of the Tour de France saw Slovenian defending champion Tadej Pogacar win the 10.9km uphill time trial from Loudenvielle to Peyragudes, French Pyrenees, on Friday, July 18, 2025.
  • Having reclaimed yellow at Hautacam, Pogacar has been in dominant form since the start of the season, leaving little doubt about who will don yellow in Paris on July 27, 2025.
  • Despite the heat at 1,580m, Pogacar completed the 10.9km climb in exactly 23 minutes flat, using a standard road bike, under punishing conditions.
  • With that win, Pogacar extended his overall lead to 4:07, Vingegaard finished 36 seconds behind, and Evenepoel admitted, `I didn’t have the legs I wanted`.
  • Looking ahead to Paris, Stage 14 on Saturday features a 182.6km mountain course in the Pyrenees, with rivals questioning their morale and strategies.
