A massive crash 21km from the finish eliminates UAE's climbing support and drops Adam Yates nearly 14 minutes, effectively ending their GC campaign. Guillermo Silva becomes the first Uruguayan to win a Grand Tour stage, while Jonas Vingegaard's tactical probing on the final climb reveals the early race hierarchy. With GC gaps still minimal and UAE out of contention, the battle for pink shifts dramatically.

Every stage, we take you inside the team bus — the tactical read, the data behind the drama, and what to watch for next. This is The Cycling Debrief.
