Tadej Pogacar caught out in late crash as Jonas Abrahamsen wins stage 11 - Pogacar crashed outside the 3km safety zone but was spared the loss of any time by a truce within the GC favourites’ group

The reigning Giro d'Italia champion Simon Yates (Visma-Lease a Bike) soared to the third Tour de France stage win of his career - and first in six years - with victory atop the Puy de Sancy on Bastille Day as Ireland's Ben Healy (EF Education-EasyPost) took over the race lead from Tadej Pogacar (UAE Team Emirates-XRG).

Pogacar crashed hard in the finale and looked set to lose time, but the group of favorites chose to wait. A few kilometers from the finish, Pogacar hit the rear wheel of Tobias Halland Johannessen (Uno-X Mobility) and went down awkwardly.
