Tadej Pogacar is the favorite to win Stage 7 of the Tour de France due to the challenging final 20 kilometers that favor a strong climber who can handle multiple ascents.

Johan Bruyneel highlights that despite potential breakaway attempts, the peloton's high speed approaching the final local circuit makes it difficult for breakaways to succeed, favoring Pogacar and his team's control of the race.

Mathieu van der Poel, although a previous winner of this stage, finished the previous day exhausted with cramps, casting doubt on his chances tomorrow, but he remains the main wildcard.

The stage’s profile with steep initial climbs followed by flatter sections suits Pogacar’s strengths, making a sprint finish from a small group likely, which he can win.

This insight focuses on race dynamics, rider conditions, and the tactical implications impacting the predicted outcome of Stage 7.

• The stage's last 20 kilometers with three ascents are crucial despite the overall lesser difficulty.
• Tadej Pogacar is favored because he can manage the steep start and flat finish better than others.
