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.

As Pogacar and Vingegaard moved ahead on the penultimate climb, overnight race leader Jai Hindley, of the Bora Hansgrohe team, wilted.
