The Bastille Day stage of the 2025 Tour de France ended with an Englishman winning in the Auvergne, an Irishman in yellow, and a French hope falling by the wayside, as Tadej Pogacar and Jonas Vingegaard called a truce on the eve of the first rest day.
Simon Yates took a third career stage win in the Tour, only a few weeks after his unexpected success in the Giro d’Italia, dropping the last of his breakaway companions on the uphill finish to Puy de Sancy, while Ireland’s Ben Healy claimed the first yellow jersey of his career.
