Pogacar beats Vingegaard in the sprint and takes the yellow jersey from him

(PRIMASPORT) Tadej Pogacar took the yellow jersey at the Tour de France on stage three. The Slovenian cyclist won the uphill finish in Les Angles and took the lead despite having the same time as Vingegaard. The better placings in the early stages made the difference. Pogacar crossed the finish line two seconds ahead of the Dane, Ecuadorian Richard Carapaz, and Frenchman Paul Seixas. This was the Slovenian's 22nd stage win at the Tour.

UAE Emirates-XRG controlled the race in the finale, with Isaac del Toro pushing in the final kilometre, allowing Pogacar to launch a sprint with 200 metres to go and drop Jonas Vingegaard to secure a 2-second advantage, enough to wear the yellow jersey. (PRIMASPORT)
