Sepp Ups the Pace TdF25-120
Once all of his teammates had done what they could, it was Sepp Kuss' (Visma-Lease a Bike) turn to work of his team leader Jonas Vingegaard. As they climbed towards the top of the Col du Madeleine, they got a small (and short-lived) gap on Tadej Pogacar (UAE Team Emirates). The gap back to Florian Lipowitz (Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe) was bigger and lasted for the rest of the climb. While Pogacar was able to hold onto the wheel of his primary rival, his teammates who you can just make out in the distance, where dropped completely. Remember, Visma-Lease a Bike has another guy up the road who will be able to work for Jonas as well.
