Tour de Suisse: Another Pogacar Show

Tadej Pogacar won the fifth and final stage of the Tour de Suisse, 150.7 km long, starting and finishing in Villars-sur-Ollon. The Slovenian also won the Swiss race, which he dominated from the first stage.

On a scorching hot day, a breakaway of about ten riders, including Lenny Martinez, Lemmen, and Quintana, sets off. On the final climb of the day over the Col de la Croix, approaching the finish line less than 10 kilometers from the finish, Pogacar quickly breaks away. The world champion manages to catch all the attackers (Martinez being the last to give up), thus securing yet another victory.

Richard Carapaz and Mathias Vacek climbed onto the final podium.
