Træen takes yellow jersey as Pedersen wins stage four amid heat

Extreme heat plagued stage four of the Tour de France, resulting in Torstein Træen stealing the yellow jersey and Jonas Vingegaard claiming the stage win.

Riders battled through 40C-plus temperatures during the 181-kilometre stage towards Foix, leading organizers to implement emergency heat measures.
