Tadej Pogačar won the 10th stage of the Tour de France to deal his rivals another crushing blow and extend his overall lead on Tuesday. Pogačar, who had already sapped his rivals’ morale with victory on the iconic Col du Tourmalet on Thursday, again stamped his authority with a break just over 900 meters from the summit of the Col de Pertus, the penultimate climb on Tuesday’s hilly stage. Pogačar’s closest race rival Jonas Vingegaard couldn’t follow and Pogačar quickly made ground on Richard Carapaz before powering past him 200 meters before the summit.
