Van Aert regrets missed confidence on Vuelta climb as green jersey bid persists

Wout van Aert attacked with a five-man break on stage 7 of the Vuelta a España, took 20 intermediate points and climbed strongly, but later said he underestimated himself on the final ascent. Andreas Leknessund won the stage, with Tobias Haaland Johannessen chasing in the finish. Van Aert remains two points clear of Tadej Pogačar in the green jersey standings (Pogačar wears red overall), while Visma’s Brennan remains a sprint threat. The green jersey fight continues as the race heads into tougher climbing.

Tour de France 2023: Sprinters seize the opportunity in Bordeaux

Stage 7 of the Tour de France is a flat route from Mont-de-Marsan to Bordeaux, offering a chance for the sprinters to shine. The peloton is expected to chase down the solo breakaway rider, Simon Guglielmi, who currently holds a gap of over six minutes. The teams with strong sprinters, such as Lotto-Dstny and Alpecin-Deceuninck, are positioning themselves at the front for the final sprint. The finish in Bordeaux is known for its sprint finishes, with Mark Cavendish winning there in 2010. Safety measures have been implemented, including an earlier enforcement of the 3km rule.
