Dutch rider Thymen Arensman has launched a daring solo attack on a long final climb before holding on grimly to win the 19th stage of the Tour de France.

Thymen Arensman won the shortened final mountain route of the 2025 Tour de France, and Tadej Pogacar still controls the yellow jersey after Stage 19.

Thymen Arensman claimed his second victory in this year's Tour de France when he benefited from the top guns' waiting game to prevail in the 19th stage, the last mountain trek of the race on Friday, as Tadej Pogacar took a giant stride towards a fourth title.
