Beaten in the sprint by the Dutchman two days ago, the reigning world champion rolled his men before the last two final ribs to place an attack in the terrible ramp of Saint-Hilaire (800 M to 10.6%, category 3), where only Jonas Vingegaard (Visma-lease-a Bike) had managed to follow it with difficulty.
