Tadej Pogacar was expected to attack in the Tour de France's first mountain stage, yet it was defending champion Jonas Vingegaard who struck first, leaving the Slovenian worried and hoping he will regain his best form before it is too late.

Pogacar, who attacked several times in the first two hilly stages, lost more than a minute to Dane Vingegaard as his lack of fitness showed in the fifth stage on Wednesday after his preparations were hampered by a fractured wrist in late April.
