Pogacar Roars to Dominant Vuelta Stage Win in Andorra
- On Tuesday, Tadej Pogačar dominated the 104.8km fourth stage of the Vuelta a España in Andorra, launching a solo attack 50km from the finish line to secure his longest grand tour solo victory.
- Racing resumed Tuesday following the cancellation of stage three due to hailstorms, as Monday's inclement weather had foiled Pogačar's earlier attempt to build a significant lead.
- During the 6.5km climb, Pogačar accelerated on the Collada de Beixalis, where rivals had no response to the acceleration, leaving them to scrap for minor places over the remaining 50km.
- Jarno Widar of Lotto Intermarche won the sprint for second place, finishing 2min 39sec behind, while Pogačar now leads the Vuelta by 3'21" from Primoz Roglič, with Enric Mas third.
- Wednesday's 173.3km stage five runs from Falset to Roquetes, as Pogačar stated he is now "calm and confident" for the remaining days of the race.
