Tadej Pogačar clinched his 100th professional win at stage 4 of the Tour de France and also regained the overall lead of the mountains classification. The UAE Team Emirates-XRG racer intentionally allowed teammate Tim Wellens to earn a point during stage 3 to save energy. However, Pogačar's performance in stage 4 earned him more points. For the upcoming time trial, Pogačar will wear a skinsuit provided by the race organization instead of his preferred model. UAE team manager Mauro Gianetti noted there are advantages to not wearing the yellow jersey.
After clinching his milestone 100th professional win in stage 4 of the Tour de France at Rouen, Tadej Pogačar regained the overall lead of the mountains classification.
Pogačar and UAE allowed teammate Tim Wellens to clinch the sole point on offer in the competition on stage 3 to save recovery time and energy.
For the 33-kilometre time trial in Rouen, Pogačar will have to use a skinsuit issued by the race organisation in the colours of the polka-dot jersey.
UAE team manager Mauro Gianetti noted there would be advantages to Pogačar not yet being in the yellow jersey, allowing him to wear his team-issue skinsuit.
