Adam Yates in full light. If he is going to spend three weeks “working” for his leader, Tadej Pogacar, the 30-year-old British rider won his first stage victory in the Tour de France this Saturday, in Bilbao, ahead of … his twin Simon . Success that allows him to take the lead in the general classification and therefore to wear the leader’s yellow jersey. He is obviously ahead of Simon Yates and the third in the inaugural stage, Pogacar. Three Frenchmen in the Top 10 at the finish, and therefore three Frenchmen in the Top 10 overall.

The Top 10 of the general classification of the Tour de France after the 1st stage, run on Saturday in Bilbao:1. Adam Yates (GBR/UAD) 4:22:39.2. Simon Yates (GBR/JAY) at 8.3. Tadej Pogacar (SLO/UAD) 18.4. Thibaut Pinot (FRA/GFC) 22.5. Michael Woods (CAN/IPT)6. Victor Lafay (FRA/COF)7. Jai Hindley (AUS/BOH)8. Mattias Skjelmose (DEN/TFS)9. Jonas Vingegaard (DEN/TJV)10.
