It's the end of stage 4 of the Tour de France, and we have a feast of Tour content in our latest edition of the Cyclingnews podcast, as we hear from Egan Bernal (Ineos Grenadiers), Sepp Kuss (Jumbo-Visma) and Tim Declercq (Deceuninck-QuickStep). We'll also discuss the latest transfer news after Michael Matthews broke his contract with Team Sunweb to join Mitchelton-Scott.

Daniel Benson and Ed Pickering dissect the action from stage 4 after Jumbo-Visma's Primoz Roglic won ahead of UAE Team Emirates' Tadej Pogacar and Guillaume Martin (Cofidis), with 16 riders finishing in the front group on the first summit finish of this year's race. Overall leader Julian Alaphilippe (Deceuninck-QuickStep) took fifth on the stage and held on to his yellow jersey, with Adam Yates (Mitchelton-Scott) still second, at four seconds, and Roglic at now at seven seconds.

Cyclingnews is the world's leader in English-language coverage of professional cycling.
