On Friday, July 14, the 13th stage of the Tour de France took place, a 138-kilometre mountain route -the first of three that will take place this weekend- from Châtillon-sur-Chlaronne to Grand Colombier. It was Michal Kwiatkowski who claimed victory after holding on from the break, beating a quartet of chasers.

The race rolled at a high pace, with about twenty riders fleeing who tried to escape, but the vast majority were caught with 20 kilometers to go.

The INEOS Grenadiers member attacked the Frenchman Quentin Pacher from behind – who wanted to break away at the front of the race – and kept the pace better than the British James Shaw, the Colombian Harold Tejada and the Belgian Maxim Van Gils, whom he led by 47 seconds.

The podium was closed by Tadej Pogacar after a great attack in the final kilometer. After his team, UAE Emirates, pulled the peloton throughout the day and set the pace, the Slovenian stunned Jonas Vingegaard in the final metres.
