Stage 7 - Tadej Pogačar tops Jonas Vingegaard to win on Mûr-de-Bretagne-

A blistering late acceleration by Tadej Pogačar (UAE Team Emirates-XRG) on the summit of the Mûr-de-Bretagne simultaneously netted the Slovenian both his nineteenth Tour stage win and a return to the top spot overall. Whilst race leader Mathieu van de Poel (Alpecin-Deceuninck) lost 1:20 and with it the maillot jaune, Jonas Vingegaard (Visma-Lease A Bike) was able to shadow Pogačar all the way to the line, the two clipping free of a shattering mini-lead peloton of less than ten riders.
Pogačar's latest success and added advantage overall was overshadowed by a major crash in the closing kilometres, badly affecting one of his key domestiques, João Almeida, amongst others.
