Long Expected TdF24-131
It came as no surprise when Remco Evenepoel (Soudal-Quick Step) attacked the last pieces of the peloton on the final climb of the day. He had had his whole team on the front all day pushing the pace, so he was clearly planning something. Yesterday, he was able to gain some time back on Jonas Vingegaard (Visma-Lease a Bike) and was hoping he could gain even more today. He had seen a weakness that he thought would still be there today, but when he went Vingegaard was immediately on his wheel. Just as close was the Maillot Jaune of Tadej Pogacar (UAE Team Emirates). It didn't take long for Evenepoel to realize he wasn't going to get the gap he hoped for. In fact, not long after this he was dropped by the two behind him when Vingegaard launched his own attack.
