- Defending champion Egan Bernal slips further behind
- Roglic leads Tadej Pogacar by 44 seconds after stage 13
Colombian Dani Martínez took his first career Tour de France stage victory as he won atop the Puy Mary. The EF Education First rider beat Bora-Hansgrohe’s Lennard Kamna to the line as the two exhausted men reached the summit finish together at the end of the mountainous 191.5km stage from Chatel-Guyon.
Kamna’s team-mate Max Schachmann had launched a long-range attack on the penultimate climb, but was caught 1.6km from the finish as Martinez and Kamna battled it out on gradients approaching 20% near the summit.
