A sprint between two Slovenes at the top of the Grand Colombier, where the finish of the 15th stage of the Tour de France was judged.

It was Pogacar who got the better of Roglic, to win his second bunch on this Big Loop.

The Australian Richie Porte takes third place.

This first alpine stage, however, allowed the yellow jersey, Primoz Roglic, to increase his lead over most of his rivals.

Well taken by his team Jumbo-Visma to hellish train, the Slovenian widened gaps in the last climb, the Grand Colombier, rejecting the Colombians Quintana at almost 4 minutes and Egan Bernal, winner of the Tour last year, at more 7 minutes!

The best French in the general classification, Guillaume Martin, also lost more than three minutes.

Only Pogacar therefore resisted, retaining his place as runner-up, 40 seconds behind Roglic.
