Great stage. Very entertaining battle up the climb. Lutsenko should have won that one even though Pogacar was faster, but he didn't do a very smart sprint.

UAE Team winning a prestigious stage on an UAE Tour, that should put some weight off the Pogačar shoulders. Yates being in a such exceptional form, controlling the GC win looks easy. Froome still has much work left to do, but i guess the hardest part is over now.

Two possibilites, maybe both can be true.

  1. The guy sharing the 26:10 time always seems to make times faster than they really were.
  2. Different starting points.
What about the wind? They were riding in echelon formation up that climb.
 
Great day of racing today. Many riders impressed: all the guys in the top five, plus Knox hanging in well from the breakaway, and Campenaerts looks hilariously strong. What's that big guy doing pedaling in with the spindly mountain goats near the front? Chapeau to Adam Yates for convincingly defending his GC spot, and to Pogačar for getting the stage win and showing some feistiness.
