I have been impressed with Jonas Vingegaard's (Jumbo-Visma) sportsmanship. Yesterday's last painting was another handshake between these two after Tadej Pogacar (UAE Team Emirates) won that stage. After Pogacar crashed, Vingegaard waited for him to catch back up. You could see him in the distance constantly looking back to see how the Maillot Blanc was getting on. As he road up to the Maillot Jaune he reached out to shake the other's hand to say thank you for waiting. There is an old tradition in the Tour to not attack the race leader when he has had a crash nor a mechanical. Apparently, in Vingegaard's mind it also applies to the Maillot Blanc. Neither wants to win the Tour over the misfortunes of the other.
