After the ninth stage, the Tour de France takes a day off. The mandatory corona tests are not the only things to do on the rest day. Also some goals have to be corrected.
winner
Tadej Pogacar: In the first few days, Tadej Pogacar left no doubt about his dominance. He shone on the cobbles and clinched the yellow jersey a day later. The 23-year-old narrowly missed his hat-trick in Lausanne after winning two stages. The competition can only hope that his team is weak and that Pogacar is vulnerable in the high mountains.
Wout van Aert: The entertainer of the first days of the tour. Wout van Aert was second three times and had the yellow jersey. But without a stage win, the Belgian all-rounder felt dissatisfied. So he attacked on the fourth stage ten kilometers from the finish and drove away from the entire field. After his solo victory in Calais, van Aert also won in Lausanne.
Simon Geschke: He would hardly have thought it possible that the native Berliner would be able to climb onto the big podium of the tour again at the age of 36. With a courageous performance on Sunday, however, Geschke secured the necessary points for the mountain jersey. In 2015 he had already caused a sensation on a Tour mountain stage when he triumphed solo in Pra-Loup.
