Tour de France 2025: Abrahamsen wins fast and furious stage 11 as Pogacar falls in Toulouse – live | Tour de France 2025


Key events

Such a dramatic end to a speedy and tense stage. It had breakaways, attacks, big names and chaotic scenes. Of stage 11, Ben Healy said: “I think I’ve lost a few years of my life on that stage.” That probably sums up how the peloton found today’s unrelenting stage.

For today’s winner though, it was a dream come true, with Jonas Abrahamsen having broken his collarbone only four weeks ago and not even knowing whether he would make the Tour or not. Now, he has an epic stage win under his belt. Kudos to Mauro Schmid who spent much of the day in the breakaway and was pipped on the finish line, and hopefully Tadej Pogačar isn’t feeling too sore after his crash at the end of today’s stage.

As always, thank you so much for reading the blog and for all your messages. Apologies if I didn’t get round to answering your TdF questions. I’ll try to get to them when I’m next on the Tour blog on Friday, so come join me then. Tomorrow, tune in for another Guardian Tour de France blog from my sports colleagues.
