Stage 15 of the 2026 Tour de France was another huge day in the
mountains, taking the riders 183.9km from Champagnole to Plateau de
Solaison with 3,950 metres of climbing. A blockbuster route
produced another elite breakaway featuring Ben Healy, Tom Pidcock,
Quinn Simmons, Richard Carapaz and, unusually, Adam Yates, who was
sent up the road as a satellite rider for Isaac Del Toro. But none
of that would become the biggest story of the day. Jonas Vingegaard
crashed out of the Tour de France, bringing an abrupt end to one of
cycling's greatest rivalries. His withdrawal transforms the fight
for the podium, but it also raises fascinating questions about
Tadej Pogačar. With his biggest rival no longer in the race, did
Pogačar choonot to launch the kind of devastating attack many were
expecting? Is that the greatest mark of respect he can give? And
could this have been the final Tour de France of one of the
defining riders of his generation? Despite the strength of the
breakaway, UAE once again brought the race back together. With Del
Toro and Pogačar driving the chase, the yellow jersey even
sacrificed his own chances to try and deliver a stage victory for
his teammate. In the end, it wasn't enough. Remco Evenepoel
outsprinted Del Toro and Pogačar to take the stage, leaving us
asking another question: have we ever seen the rider in yellow work
so selflessly to try and win a stage for a teammate? Elsewhere,
Jasper Philipsen reignited the battle for the green jersey by
taking maximum points at the intermediate sprint, meaning the
battle for green could go all the way. Ned Boulting and David
Millar break down Stage 15 of the Tour de France. Music courtesy of
