Slovenian catches rival by surprise with violent accelerationVingegaard takes yellow jersey as Jai Hindley wilts
Tadej Pogacar won the mountainous sixth stage of the 2023 Tour de France, with a surprise attack on defending champion Jonas Vingegaard in the closing kilometres of the summit finish at Cauterets-Cambasque, in the Pyrenees. The UAE Emirates team leader turned the tables on the Dane, less than a day after his challenge appeared to have stalled on the first mountain stage to Laruns.
As Pogacar and Vingegaard moved ahead on the penultimate climb, overnight race leader Jai Hindley, of the Bora Hansgrohe team, wilted.
