Ce mercredi avait lieu la 4e étape du Critérium du Dauphiné, un contre-la-montre de de 17,4 km entre Charmes-sur-Rhône et Saint-Péray, et on a assisté à un premier bouleversement du classement général. Le Belge Remco Evenepoel (Soudal Quick-Step) a remporté haut la main le chrono, avec 21 secondes d'avance sur Jonas Vingegaard (Visma | Lease a Bike) et 38 secondes sur Matteo Jorgenson (Visma | Lease a Bike). Tadej Pogacar (UAE Team Emirates-XRG) termine 4e à 49 secondes du Belge, et réalise la très mauvaise opération du jour. Pour le Danois, ce chrono est une bonne opération. Il prend de l'avance sur Pogacar au général et reste à moins de 20 secondes du leader Evenepoel.

00:00The second of this TT, 20 seconds behind Remco and almost 30 seconds ahead of today. Is that a good day?
00:16I think to be honest I can be pretty satisfied with how today went.
00:22Remco is the best time traveler in the world, so to only lose 20 seconds on him in this time trial is pretty decent, I would say.
00:34And then also taking time on today is, yeah, in the end I think I can be happy with my performance.
00:41And the studio at the prime is your gears? Your gearing during the TT?
00:44No, no, I didn't have problems, I just ran a bit out of gear, so maybe I should have had a bigger chainring on in the front, so yeah, I mean, I don't think it changed much though.
00:56It was just on one of the very fast parts, I needed a little bit of a bigger gear, but yeah, it's not like I would have made it not even 5 seconds faster at all, so yeah.
01:10Having almost 30 seconds advantage on today is changing a bit the dynamic of the upcoming days for you?
01:16I mean, of course, it's always better to be in front than behind, but on the other hand I'm also behind Remco, so I also have some time to make up.
01:27And yeah, we've seen in the last years that in the mountains you can make up a lot of time, so will be interesting the upcoming four days.
