Jonas Vingegaard’s Tour de France was a Venn diagram - Escape Collective

The two-time Tour de France winner's second-place finish sits at the centre of three circles labelled pride, pain, and perseverance. 

'The press conference see-saws back and forth between questions for Vingegaard and questions for Evenepoel. The younger man is full of compliments for his peers, “the best two in the world,” and proud that he was able to round out the podium behind them. For Evenepoel, the big breakthrough was being consistent. He stumbles on the word a couple of times; Vingegaard looks over to him, smiles warmly, quietly gives him an assist with the pronunciation. Again, not the robot he’s sometimes painted as.'
