The rider from the UAE team won ahead of his twin brother Simon on Saturday in Bilbao.
A family matter. Adam Yates (UAE) won the first stage of the Tour de France 2023, Saturday July 1, in Bilbao (Spain), ahead of his twin Simon (Jayco AlUla). Tadej Pogacar’s teammate distanced his brother in the home stretch and will wear the yellow jersey on Sunday. The Slovenian, expected as one of the big favorites for the final victory, won the sprint for third place, giving him four bonus seconds in the general classification.
It’s already over for Mas
After blowing up the peloton, delivering the expected fireworks, Pogacar thus created a first gap, albeit slight, with his designated rival Jonas Vingegaard (Jumbo-Visma), who arrived just behind him (9th). The two Frenchmen from Groupama-FDJ Thibaut Pinot (4th) and David Gaudu (10th) are in the top 10, as is Victor Lafay (Cofidis), 6th. This first stage was also marked by the abandonment of Enric Mas (Movistar), victim of a fall in the descent of the Vivero coast.
