The Race for Third TdF26-44

With Tadej Pogacar up the road about to win the stage and Jonas Vingegaard in between this sextet was racing for third place on the stage. They may also be racing for third place in the Tour de France as well. Remco Evenepoel (Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe) was using his time trial prowess in hopes of pulling those two back. He may have been riding for himself or, perhaps, for his teammate Florian Lipowitz. Sepp Kuss (Visma-Lease a Bike) was riding in case they do catch Vingegaard. Should they, he would be ready to bury himself for his team leader. Paul Seixas (Decathlon-CMA CGM) and Lenny Martinez (Bahrain-Victorious) were riding to minimize their disadvantage to Pogacar and Vingegaard. Just out of frame is Isaac Del Toro (UAE Team Emirates) who was the one who managed third on the stage, and now sits third on the general classification as well.
