Joao Almeida saw the Maglia Rosa slip away today, but 59″ was the gap that Pogačar had to Roglič in the final time trial of the 2020 Tour de France, at La Planche des Belles Filles, so not all hope is lost.
So, while the GC men were marking each other, Santiago Buitrago (Bahrain Victorious) went for glory on the most iconic stage, at the last opportunity.
The Colombians, the escarabajos (beetles), start to have some fun and pull off their very best when the altitude exceeds 2,000 meters and the air begins to thin.
