INEOS Grenadiers’ Thymen Arensman won stage 14 of the Tour de France on Saturday, riding solo for the final 37km of a brutal day in the Pyrenees. Behind him race leader Tadej Pogacar added six seconds to his lead over Jonas Vingegaard.

Jonas Vingegaard is in an unenviable position heading into the third week of the Tour de France. At the end of stage 15 the Visma-Lease a Bike rider trailed Tadej Pogačar by 4:13, and there hasn't been a moment at this Tour where the momentum has looked like it is heading in his direction, as opposed to Pogačar in yellow.

Vingegaard had a tough first week time trial and also a big setback on the Hautacam stage, where he effectively won the Tour in 2023, but he then showed signs of improvement on stage 13's uphill time trial and again in the final Pyrenean stage at Superbagnères.

While Tadej Pogacar has been enjoying a dream Tour de France run this year, his main rival Jonas Vingegaard and his once almighty team are now closer to third than first place after just one high mountain stage on Thursday.

Five Americans are competing in the Tour de France this year. Matteo Jorgenson sits 10th overall with a little more than a week left in the race. Quinn Simmons has ridden at the front of the peloton or in breakaways much of the race.

CARCASSONNE, France — Tim Wellens raced clear on the descent toward Carcassonne to win the 15th stage of the Tour de France on Sunday while three-time champion Tadej Pogačar tightened his hold on the yellow jersey.

Pogačar was happy to lose the yellow jersey by a single second to Mathieu van der Poel (Alpecin-Deceuninck), who went deep in the breakaway of the stage, won by Ben Healy (EF Education-EasyPost), to take back yellow.

Will Tadej Pogacar extend his advantage over his Tour de France rivals - or will his crash on stage 11 hamper him on today’s brutal time trial?
