Tadej & Jonas's epic duel, the race for Remco, Ewan and Lotto fall out, & Arsène Wenger on his love of cycling

As the Tour de France pauses in Saint-Gervais for its second rest day, these are RadioCycling's latest headlines...<br/><br/>The Tour remains on a knife-edge, with Tadej Pogačar and Jonas Vingegaard so close to each other that they might as well be riding a tandem.
