Big loop•A gentle return to action for the peloton after the big fight of the weekend and the rest day on Monday. The sprinters should be able to show their stuff in Nîmes
Quentin Ballue
THE ESSENTIAL
- Heading for the 3rd week of the Tour de France and the 16th stage between Gruissant and Nîmes (188.6km), after the last rest day on Monday.
- With only 1,200m of positive elevation gain and a 4th category hill halfway, this stage should allow the leaders to have a quiet day and the sprinters to express themselves in Nîmes.
- The start will be at 1:30 p.m. and the peloton is expected at the finish line between 5:30 p.m. and 6 p.m.
Cavendish is only 17th and Démare 18th. Disappointment for Arkéa-B&B
Girmay crosses the line 3 minutes after the finish. He now has only 32 points ahead in the points standings, but that should be enough until Nice.
Bauhaud ranks 2nd, Kristoff 3rd. Coquard is 7th
3rd victory for the Belgian in this Tour de France!
PHILIPSEN IN AN ARMCHAIR!!!
It won’t be for Cav, too far away
What if Cavendish ended in style? It’s the dream scenario!
BOULEVARD FOR PHILIPSEN!!!
FALL IN THE ROUNDABOUT! GIRMAY IS ON THE GROUND!!!
Uno-X firmly in place at the head of the pack
Coquard won the intermediate sprint earlier, let’s hope he still has legs
We switch for good to the final sprint! Perfect timing
The Relay will live! Another masterclass from Joséphine
A thought for Marina and the haters
ROUGIER IS NOT DEAD!!!
THE BIG COMEBACK OF YVES CHATEL!!! JUST BEFORE THE RED FLAME!!!
What if it was finally the right one for Wout van Aert?
A real feast in preparation for Henriette, I would have loved to have been invited
Gachignard was caught a while ago, the peloton is heading at high speed towards Nîmes
MONEY TIME!!! We’ll finish with an eye on each channel
