The most incredible thing today isn't just that Vingegaard rode the final climb a minute faster than everyone else but that 2nd placed Pogacar rode it two minutes faster than the next best rider. This wasn't Pogacar showing any weakness, it was purely Vingegaard going thermonuclear

I think Pogacar was only about a minute faster than Gaudu, but other than that you are fully correct

What a stage! Pogacar threw a kitchen sink at Vinge on the penultimate climb. The third of his accelerations was monstrous, passing Thomas like a motorbike. He even tried on a descent (Vigne almost fell down) but couldn't drop the Dane. Then Pog himself fell down. Chapeau to Vigne for waiting! Fair play at its finest. On the last climb Pog, having burned his matches earlier and feeling the effect of his fall, couldn't do more but credit for a great fight today! WVA was absolutely ridiculous today, eved dropped Pog. As for Vinge, amazing ride to the finish and well-deserved Tour victory.

what a teamcomeback from Jumbo.
Vingegaard is always with the phone at the finish! Lol. Serious business he has to deal with.
Its calls to his two girls.. his woman Trine Marie Hansen and his child.
