Pogačar Wins Stage 19 on Alpe d'Huez and Leads Tour de France by 7:11
Tadej Pogačar attacked 12 kilometres from the finish to win Stage 19 and extend his overall lead over Remco Evenepoel to 7:11, with Isaac del Toro and Paul Seixas separated by just 24 seconds in the fight for third. Stage 20, the Tour's most elevation-heavy stage at 5,450 metres of climbing over 170.9 kilometres, begins Saturday and represents the last opportunity for significant general classification changes. Pogačar enters with reduced team support after illness and abandonment thinned his UAE Team Emirates-XRG roster.
