The Tour de France is dead. Long live the Tour de France! The 110th edition of the event confirms the explosion of the usual landmarks of this sport and its flagship event. A mountain of astonishment and questions, as much for the athletes as for the spectators, while the Dane Jonas Vingegaard is still at the helm of the classification, nine seconds ahead of the Slovenian Tadej Pogacar, at the end of the 13th stage disputed Friday at the Grand Colombier , in the French Jura. One of the best American coaches, Allen Lim, former trainer of the EF Education First team, interviewed by telephone, does not hide his confusion: “Are we in a new era in the history of the Tour? Yes. Have the runners changed drastically? I do not believe. But they have evolved a lot.”
