Tadej Pogacar minimized the loss suffered this Wednesday against Dane Jonas Vingegaard in the Tour and he is content to face the Pyrenees this weekend with a yellow jersey and a lead of 1.14: “He has to attack.”
“We will see what happens in the Pyrenees, I am quite confident because I have the yellow jersey and a definite advantage in general. “He has to attack, not me,” said the Slovenian at the end of the twelfth period.
The Slovenian made sure he checked today on Wednesday, where after distancing himself from Vingegaard on the climb to Puy Mary, he saw how the Dane caught him on the next climb, the Pertus pass, before him beat the final sprint to the finish. line.
“I think I made more efforts on the day and he was more comfortable. I had a good day, but he had one of the best of his career,” said the UAE cyclist.
