Norwegian Torstein Traeen claimed the coveted race leader's yellow jersey, while Denmark's Mads Pedersen won the fourth stage of the Tour de France 2026 on a day of Nordic delight on Tuesday.

Traeen stripped reigning champion Tadej Pogačar of the jersey just two days after Norway stunned five-time winner Brazil at the World Cup, thanks to a brace from Erling Haaland.

"Football is pretty big, and I've seen how they are rowing in front of the castle and everything... it's a big public party, and we're obviously doing pretty well," Traeen said about the football team's success. "So, all I'm dreaming about now is to have a Norway jersey with my name on the back, so I can wear it for the next game!"

Pedersen, who was world champion in 2019, stormed to victory in a sprint finish ahead of Lidl-Trek teammate Quinn Simmons in second, with Spaniard Raul Garcia taking third at the end of the 182-kilometer stage from Carcassonne to Foix in scorching temperatures that topped 40C at one point.

It was Pedersen's third stage victory at the Tour following one each in 2022 and 2023 and was enough to see him take the green points jersey.

"For sure, this was a masterpiece in teamwork," said the 30-year-old Dane. "I was suffering a lot in the last climb, but with Quinn and (Mathias) Vacek there, it was an incredible day, and they did incredible on the climb to pace it well for me. They were just machines from there to the finish line. So, what a team effort and what a team win today."

WATCH REPLAY

Traeen, who had started the day just over five minutes behind reigning champion Pogačar in the race lead, was part of an initial 34-man breakaway that formed around 25 kilometers into the stage.

That had been whittled down to 10 over the day's final climb, and Traeen came home in eighth place.

With the peloton finishing 13 minutes after the stage winner, Traeen now leads the yellow jersey standings by 28 seconds from American Sean Quinn, a fellow breakaway companion who finished ninth on the stage.

Pedersen's Lidl-Trek teammate Vacek, who finished the stage in 10th, is third overall at 3 minutes, 50 seconds and now leads the young rider's white jersey competition.

Pogačar dropped to fourth at 7 minutes, 53 seconds, the same time as his arch rival Jonas Vingegaard in fifth.

Torstein Traeen Had Tour de France Yellow In His Sights

For Traeen, 30, it will be the second time he has led a Grand Tour, having worn the leader's red jersey at last year's Vuelta a España for four days.

He is the fourth Norwegian to wear the Tour's yellow jersey after Thor Hushovd, who is Traeen's Uno-X Mobility team manager, did so in 2004, 2006 and 2011, and Alexander Kristoff, who held it for one day in 2020.

A 34-man breakaway group went clear in the first 25 kilometers, and it was soon clear that Pogačar's UAE Emirates-XRG team had no intention of controlling the gap or holding onto the yellow jersey.

Sprinters Biniam Girmay and Jasper Philipsen dropped out of the break after the intermediate sprint, won by the Eritrean ahead of the Belgian.

A couple more riders were shed on the 10-kilometer Col de Coudons just after the halfway point of the race, but the true battle for the stage win - and the yellow jersey - took place on the 7-kilometer Col de Montsegur at 1,059 meters.

Over the top with 35 kilometers left, 10 riders went clear, with the peloton more than 11 minutes behind.

Quinn tried to drop Traeen on the climb, but the Norwegian would not budge and had the yellow jersey in his sights.

"I was mostly thinking about how to stay cool and then, obviously, when you hit the final climb, you just have to have the legs there," Traeen said. "With this heat, you don't know how the body is going to react."

Once he crested the climb, he said he started to realize he could finish the day in yellow.

"You still have to get to the finish line," he added.

Several riders tried to drop Pedersen - who was by far the fastest sprinter in the group - but the Dane dug in and kept in contact.

He had two teammates in Simmons and Vacek to help control the run in to the finish, and when he launched his sprint 300 meters from the end, he streaked clear to win by several bike lengths.
