Norwegian cyclist Torstein Traeen took the yellow jersey at the fourth stage of the Tour de France after Tadej Pogacar lost it. The stage was marked by extreme heat, and Traeen led the peloton across 181.9 kilometers between Carcassone and Foix. Danish rider Mads Pedersen won the stage in a sprint finish, securing his third victory at the race. Pogacar, the defending champion, did not make significant efforts to retain the lead, while his main rivals, including Jonas Vingegaard, finished over 13 minutes behind. This marks the third time a Norwegian has worn the yellow jersey in the Tour's history.
