BELGIAN rider Remco Evenepoel won the fifth stage of the Tour de France yesterday, a 33km time trial around Caen that saw Slovenian rider Tadej Pogacar take the yellow jersey from Mathieu van der Poel.

World and Olympic champion Evenepoel completed the course in 36min 42sec at a blistering average speed of 54 km/h.

He finished 16 seconds quicker than Pogacar, with the Italian Edoardo Affini 33sec off the stage lead in third.

Pogacar now leads the general classification with a 42sec advantage over Evenepoel, who collected his second stage win in the Tour de France, having triumphed in the time trial at Gevrey-Chambertin last year on his debut in the Grande Boucle.

“I knew I had a good chance but, of course, the legs still have to be there and everything has to go to plan,’ said Evenepoel, whose Soudal Quick-Step teammate Tim Merlier won stage 3 two days ago.
