Pogacar cedes yellow to breakaway as Tour heat reshapes Stage 4

Tadej Pogačar handed the Tour de France yellow jersey to the breakaway on Stage 4 amid scorching heat, allowing Torstein Træen to take the lead. Pogačar, who started the day with a headache from the heat, sat in with his UAE Team Emirates as teammates piled on ice and water to keep him cool. A 34-rider move went clear to Foix, with Pogačar finishing in a relatively conserving pace and dropping to fourth overall, 7:53 behind Træen. He expects the Norwegian to hold yellow for a while while focusing on recovery and preparing for the mountain days ahead, including a potential chance to reclaim the jersey later in the race.
