French cyclist (1904–1980)
On the French national holiday, Tadej Pogačar attacked 16 kilometres from the finish at Col de Pertus and rode alone to his third stage win of the 2026 Tour de France, stretching his general classification lead to more than three and a half minutes. Remco Evenepoel finished second 32 seconds back, while Jonas Vingegaard slipped further behind and now holds only a 30-second advantage over the Belgian in the fight for the podium.
