ALPE D’HUEZ, France (AP) — In his first Tour de France, 22-year-old Tom Pidcock became the youngest winner of a stage on the iconic Alpe d’Huez mountain after crossing the line solo at the ski resort.

Race leader Jonas Vingegaard finished in a group including defending champion Tadej Pogacar and 2018 Tour winner Geraint Thomas to keep the yellow jersey.
