Will Tadej Pogačar retain the polka-dot (King of the Mountains) jersey after Stage 13 (Dole>Belfort)?

Por quê: Contemporaneous, authoritative sources in the supplied evidence show that after Stage 13 (17 July 2026) Tadej Pogačar held the mountains classification. A Reuters photo caption dated 17 July 2026 explicitly states Pogačar “celebrates on the podium wearing the polka-dot jersey after stage 13.” The USA TODAY Stage 13 report (17 July 2026) lists the polka-dot (mountains) leader as “Tadej Pogačar, Slovenia.” The official Tour de France stage page (letour.fr) also displays the post-stage leaders and shows Pogačar among them. These contemporaneous items support that at the completion of Stage 13 Pogačar was the King of the Mountains (polka-dot) leader.
