Tejay Van Garderen and Brent Bookwalter look back at the biggest storylines from the first nine stages of the 2026 Tour de France, beginning with Tadej Pogačar’s dominant opening week. They break down how Pogačar built his lead, took control of the yellow jersey, and helped set up a stage victory for one of his teammates. Tejay and Brent also examine where Jonas Vingegaard and Visma-Lease a Bike go from here and whether they can find a way to overcome the deficit to Pogačar. They discuss the challenges facing Red Bull-BORA-hansgrohe and its co-leader strategy, the impressive performances from the Tour’s young riders, and the battle for the green jersey after a fascinating opening week for the sprinters. Finally, they look ahead to Stage 10, previewing what awaits the riders when racing resumes after the Tour’s first rest day. #NBCSports #Cycling #TourdeFrance » Subscribe to NBC Sports: https://www.youtube.com/nbcsports?sub_confirmation=1 » Watch Live Sports on Peacock: https://peacoc
