Evenepoel's stunning time trial win as Pogačar takes Tour de France yellow jersey
Race-against-the-clock specialist Remco Evenepoel produced a stunning display of power to win the first time trial of the Tour de France on Wednesday and defending champion Tadej Pogačar cemented his favorite status by grabbing the yellow jersey. The mainly flat 33-kilometer (20.5-mile) stage 5 in Normandy favored powerful riders like Evenepoel, who already had won a time trial in a similiar fashion last year, when the Belgian rider finished third overall in the general classification.
