At the Col de Sarenne, 17km from the Alpe d'Huez finish, Pogačar gave Del Toro the signal to attack, then took over pacing duties himself. The Tour leader rode 60km at the front from the Galibier, passed up the chance to win two consecutive days at Alpe d'Huez, and sacrificed 45 seconds in the general classification. asg-reflektory.pl
This selfless act ensured Del Toro kept his podium position and white jersey, demonstrating Pogačar's commitment to team success over personal glory.
