🔥 Mads Pedersen & Matej Mohorič | Tour de la Provence 2025 | Stage 2 | Highlights

🔥 Stage 2 of the Tour de la Provence 2025 delivered pure drama as Mads Pedersen (Lidl-Trek) secured his first win of the season in a high-octane finish. The 169km stage, featuring a 4% incline into Manosque, saw Pedersen and Matej Mohorič (Bahrain Victorious) break away with 18km to go. With both riders pushing hard, Pedersen launched a decisive attack with just 300 metres remaining, outsprinting Mohorič by three seconds. This bold move not only gave him the stage win and 15 bonus seconds but also snatched the overall race lead from Sam Bennett (Decathlon AG2R La Mondiale).

In the chaotic final sprint, Fred Wright (Bahrain Victorious) clinched third, with Dorian Godon (Decathlon AG2R La Mondiale) finishing just behind as the reduced peloton trailed by 16 seconds. With a 13-second gap over Mohorič and a 24-second advantage over Wright in the GC, Pedersen has set the stage for a thrilling finale as the race heads into a flat stage where every second counts.
