Kilometer zero and already an attack in this fourth stage. The first attacker of the day is French, and his name is Lenny Martinez. Welcome to this fourth act of the 2025 Tour de France. A 174-kilometer stage between Amiens Métropole and Rouen. 1’56”, for the moment, we haven’t lost anything. We had the impression that the peloton had accelerated, but up front, we accelerated too. Kasper Asgreen, Lenny Martinez, Thomas Gachignard and Jonas Abrahamsen, who continue to open the road. Fall in the peloton. Fall in the peloton just now. Yevgeniy Fedorov. It’s Yevgeniy Fedorov who finds himself on the ground, and he’s not alone, with Mattéo Vercher also, the fighter from the first stage. Sepp Kuss! I was telling you about these urban developments. Look. These urban developments in the middle of the road. There will be more important ones later. We are on this Jacques Anquetil climb. We pay tribute to Jacques Anquetil today with this climb and the acceleration of Lenny Martinez. It could be a goal. Yes, in this conquest of the weight jersey. Because no No rider in this breakaway has yet scored any points. Remember that there are two riders with three points at the start of this stage, Tim Wellens and Tadei Pogacar. Today, we have two third-category riders, one fourth-category rider. So, if a rider manages to get ahead of three climbers, he ‘ll have the weighted jersey tonight. This is perhaps Lenny Martinez’s hidden objective, but he has his work cut out for him with Abramson. He has a target here. Yes, we can imagine that Lenny Martinez will be more comfortable scoring points at the top of the Côte de Belbœuf. We’re at 10%, but there, on a false flat climb. Asgreen, who anticipates 300 meters from the line. Lenny Martinez who triggers. Thomas Gachignard goes there too. Jonas Abrahamsen in fourth position for the moment. Kasper Asgreen’s great effort to get this point. Thomas Gachignard who pulls away. Lenny Martinez also to come back. Will it hold? Where is this line? Kasper Asgreen, Kasper Asgreen who will go for a point. Lenny Martinez. Puncture for Alaphilippe. Julian Alaphilippe, puncture at the rear. Puncture for Julian Alaphilippe. The hard blow just as things accelerate a few kilometers before the intermediate sprint. Waiting for Alberto Dainese, I think who is there, the Italian sprinter, while things accelerate at the front. Julian Alaphilippe is helped. Change wheel, quickly. Change bike. Change bike, even. We change everything for Julian Alaphilippippe. We change bike and we set off again for the two-time world champion, Julian Alaphilippippe, who will set off again now. He will be far away. He will be far away. Yes, this is not what we call the fastest recovery in history. Watch out for Abrahamsen. Jonas Abrahamsen, he will sprint, and that is the alone because no one will react. Thomas Gachignard isn’t going. Take it easy. Take it easy, Jonas Abrahamsen. He’ll go off alone, do you think? Yes, watch carefully. He takes the points and off he goes. Jonas Abrahamsen. He’ll wait for Asgreen. Come on, behind, we’ll see if Jonathan Milan, Benjamin Guirma, Tim Merlire will make a big sprint. We’d like to have the images for fifth place. Yes, Jonathan Milan is going straight for fifth place right now. There, ahead of Biniam Girmay and Tim Merlier. There, there’s going to be a percentage. It’s the Côte de Bellebœuf, the second listed climb of the day. The first in the third category: average gradient, as you can see, 9.1%. We’re truly entering the finale of this stage. There are 28 kilometers left to go. The climbs will now follow one after the other. There won’t be a single meter of flat in this stage. Everyone’s getting back into position: Louis Meintjes, Jonas Vingegaard’s BikeExchange, the UAE with Tim Wellens, it’s on. Pogačar, of course. All the riders in the general classification will be vigilant. Now, it’s off to the Côte de Bellebœuf. Lenny Martinez, he’s pushing on. He’s gotten rid of Jonas Abrahamsen. Look at the steepest sections. Now, Lenny Martinez is gone, and he might be able to pick up two points in the mountains classification. Let’s take a look at what’s happening behind, in the peloton. Jonas Abrahamsen isn’t fully recovering. Lenny Martinez is finally finding terrain that suits him. And we see Lenny Martinez much more in form than we’ve seen in three days. Think back to that Saturday stage where he took 9’15” in the squares on a completely flat stage. He spent the day at the back, all alone. We’ll still keep an eye on what’s happening behind, but I have the impression that the UAE team itself has toughened up the race. I have the impression that we’re riding hard. We’ve caught Jonas Abrahamsen back on the peloton. We ‘re not just there to control: we’re setting a big tempo for the peloton and Tadej Pogačar’s team. That’ll be two points for Lenny Martinez at the top of the Côte de Bellebœuf. Marc Soler, Pavel Sivakov in command. Tim Wellens, that’s a small point. Come on, a small point. He’ll go for the point. Yes, a point. Big crash. Very big crash within the peloton. On that narrowing. Paret-Peintre. A bit like yesterday, ultimately, that narrowing, but on the other side, where… Ouch, ouch, ouch, Valentin Paret-Peintre. First Tour de France and a big crash on this fourth stage for Valentin Paret-Peintre. There’s Julian who was coming in at full speed. That’s exactly where he is. We’re coming in at high speed. Like yesterday, but on the other side, just like when Evenepoel fell. It was the same thing on the right side. That’s before, it touched before. There’s a member of the Picnic PostNL team who’s also doing a nice spin, who’s impaled himself on the cones. We’re right there on this Côte de Bonsecours. And some good news. It’s stalling. And some good news: Julian Alaphilippe is coming in. We had Michael Storer who got up to wait for Julian Alaphilippe. You can see him here in the image. He wasted some energy anyway. Will he still have the resources? to accompany the best climbers, the best punchers just now in the last two climbs at twelve kilometers? Not easy. But in any case, the whole team mobilized to bring him back to the front of the peloton after his puncture. We’re moving up to the Groupama FDJ side with the yellow helmets of the leader of the team classification. We see Barthe catching Romain Grégoire. A hell of a job, Cyril Barthe, since the start of this Tour de France. It’s Johannesen who took the lead. Kaden Groves who puts himself in service in the Côte de la Grand’Mare. It’s the penultimate difficulty. It’s going to be a series of events since after that, it’s the Saint-Hilaire ramp and this very technical finale in the streets of Rouen. Acceleration of Groupama-FDJ. With Lewis Askey, Quentin Pacher who has just moved aside. We leave Romain Grégoire with the best. Kaden Groves, he’s not going to set the pace long time. It’s over. Julian Alaphilippe, unfortunately finished after this repair that lasted a long time, too long. Kévin Vauquelin is coming back with Remco Evenepoel. Still the US champion, Quinn Simmons, who is there. It’s a war for positioning. I think everyone has the same information: in the coming kilometers, it’s going to be a little narrower. There won’t be room for everyone. It’s Mattias Skjelmose with the all-black shoes. It’s not Thibaut Nys. We have Marc Hirschi a little further back, with Tiesj Benoot in his slipstream. Enric Mas is catching up. Ben O’Connor. Ben O’Connor. A complicated start to the Tour de France. Even though he started well by not missing the echelon in Lille, the problem for him was that he fell a few kilometers from the finish in Lille. And now, I think it’s the after-effects of that fall that are handicapping Ben O’Connor. Come on, a small point for Tim Wellens. Tim Wellens takes the lead. And we’re going to accelerate now with Victor Campenaerts. We’ve let the UAE do it so far. Visma–Lease a Bike is taking the lead. And now, it’s a clear acceleration from Victor Campenaerts, with Jonas Vingegaard wedged in behind him. We’re approaching a technical section, and Visma–Lease a Bike doesn’t want to suffer it. Yes, he’s there, he’s doing well. Fourth in Haute-Vienne, no problem. Mathieu van der Poel, the yellow jersey, is there too. We have everyone: the best punchers, the riders in the general classification. We have the royal explanation. Remco Evenepoel, who didn’t get caught out this time. Although he’s alone, he made the effort to get in the wheel of Visma–Lease a Bike, with Tadej Pogačar who is there, alongside the double Olympic champion. This little false flat… The little false flat, it’s going to do some damage. Wow! We might even have some small breaks. Romain Grégoire is there. We have Kévin Geniets a little further back, but it could break. And Victor Campenaerts, he’s monstrous in this part. He’s wandering around. It’s like they really know it by heart, the boys. Right angle. We’re heading into this final difficulty and we saw it on the pallet. You saw it with Anders. It’s not wide. No, it’s not wide, the Saint-Hilaire ramp. It’s far from wide. Warren Barguil. There, it’s Warren Barguil, who is replacing Oscar Onley, his leader, certainly. You were talking about Lipowitz. Lipowitz is dropped. Lipowitz is dropped. Guillaume Martin is dropped. Félix Gall is dropped. Bouitrago is dropped. And for the moment, Victor Campenard, he’s not giving up. We’re making the effort for Lippowitz to try to come back, but Florian Lippowitz has lost ground. Victor Campenard, who is continuing, who is putting in his last pedal strokes with 6 kilometers to go, who will soon pull away. We are in the Saint-Hilaire ramp. Here we go. Right turn for Tiesj Benoot. He turns around. Jonas Vingegaard, just behind. Are we going to attack? We have a little bang-bang to the right, left on the climb. Jhonatan Narváez turns around. Tadej Pogačar is there, Jonas Vingegaard is on his wheel. Mathieu van der Poel, also there. Ready to emerge too: the yellow jersey. Where is Kevin? Kevin Vauquelin, he’s dropped back a little, I think, in this bend. It’ll be here soon. Where is the white jersey? Almeida moves up the left side of the road to return to his leader, Pogačar. The left-right, there. We can no longer see Romain Grégoire or Kévin Vauquelin. He’s there, Kévin Vauquelin, a little further back. João Almeida, alongside his leader and world champion, Tadej Pogačar. It’s all over for Jhonatan Narváez on this Saint-Hilaire ramp, and Romain Grégoire is hanging on to stay in contact. It’s going fast, very fast. 400 meters to go. And Jonas Vingegaard is there in third place. In last place, Mathieu van der Poel, just in front of him. And the tiny road. And these are the steepest gradients. Will Pogacar attack or not? For now, he’s content to follow the pace of the Portuguese, João Almeida. Here we go. Come on, it’s Tadej Pogacar’s turn to go now. 5.5 kilometers, the world champion’s attack. Van der Poel stalls. Van der Poel stalls. The yellow jersey is in trouble. It’s a two-man race. Mathieu van der Poel can’t keep up with Tadej Pogačar and Jonas Vingegaard, who are about to break away. As you know, this Saint-Hilaire ramp could be decisive. The long-awaited duel of the 2025 Tour de France may already be taking shape here. Today in Rouen, Tadei Pogačar and Jonas Vingegaard are attacking. Remco, on the trail, behind, to stall a little. He’s taken a 10-second beating. He turns around. He turns around, he sits back down, he’s gone, Pogačar, he’s persisting. At 5.2 kilometers, the world champion is going off alone in this fourth stage. Vingegaard is going to sprint there, at the top, to get back in the world champion’s wake. It’s going to work. It’s going to work for the leader of Visma–Lease a Bike. At the front, he clung to the front. Be careful, because this is technical. We saw the descent on the pallet earlier with you, Steve. We’ll obviously re-decipher all these images later on the Rois de la Pédale set. Stay with us! In 5 kilometers, like every day, the debrief on Eurosport, on Max. 5 kilometers, 12 seconds of lead announced for Tadej Pogačar and Jonas Vingegaard over the yellow jersey group. Mathieu van der Poel hasn’t said his last word either. There are four of them there, four. It’s going to go in. I think it can go in. Here we are, at the foot of this 500-meter ramp. Will Matteo Jorgenson stumble or not? João Almeida is making an effort to come back. Van der Poel is cracking. It’s Mathieu van der Poel who is forced to push forward now. Tadej Pogačar saw it: he’s staying in the wheel of the yellow jersey. The effort of João Almeida, the Portuguese, with Mathieu van der Poel in his wheel. Romain Grégoire is hanging on, he’s there, but he made a big effort to get back in : it’s going to be tough for the Groupama–FDJ puncher. Kévin Vauquelin, for his part, won’t be coming back now. João Almeida is taking the yellow jersey and the world champion’s jersey in his wheel. Jonas Vingegaard is in fourth position in this group. Remco Evenepoel is being dropped now. João Almeida still stands, perhaps dropping Mathieu van der Poel to finish. The yellow jersey is launching its sprint: Tadej Pogačar, trying to claim his 100th professional victory. Will it hold for Mathieu van der Poel? Tadej Pogačar sprints. Mathieu van der Poel, Tadej Pogačar! It’s here, Tadej Pogačar’s 100th victory! Thanks to João Almeida’s hard work in the finale of this stage here in Rouen, Tadej Pogačar has secured the 100th professional victory of his career. An incredible finale, completely crazy in the streets of Rouen. The first battle between the leaders of the general classification took place today —and Tadej Pogačar wins. And he’ll definitely take the yellow jersey, because I think Mathieu van der Poel finished third, beaten on the line by Jonas Vingegaard. Victory for Tadej Pogačar today. He attacked quite early on the Saint-Hilaire ramp, more than 5 kilometers from the finish. And it was he who finished in the streets of Rouen. Victory for Pogačar ahead of Mathieu van der Poel and Jonas Vingegaard, like in Boulogne-sur-Mer, but in the other direction. General classification with Mathieu van der Poel, who retains the yellow jersey, in the same second as Tadej Pogačar. But, as Jacky and I explained, Tadej Pogačar, who finished 71st yesterday, remains behind in the general classification due to places. So Mathieu van der Poel retains this yellow jersey, on the same time as Tadej Pogačar. Jonas Vingegaard is still third, Matteo Jorgenson is getting closer to the podium. And then, it’s Kévin Vauquelin who loses a place: he’s fifth, 26 seconds behind. The good news is that — as you can see — in front of Kévin Vauquelin, there is no other rider in the youth classification. Oscar Onley also made a big comeback, putting pressure on Kévin Vauquelin.
