The British Adam Yates (UAE) This Saturday added a new stage of success to Back to Switzerland which will allow him to reach the final day as leader, an individual time trial, with an advantage of 31 seconds over his teammate João Almeidawhere he once again crossed the finish line hand in hand, this time with Yates in first place.
The Emirati team again led the test in a seventh and penultimate stage of 118 kilometers where the first two classified overall overtook their rivals on the final climb and achieved their second consecutive double victory, now with the British as a winner.
The runners ran a circuit of about 60 kilometers on two occasions. Villars-sur-Ollon where several groups of escapees tried their luck, although the platoon did not allow any surprises. Only Dutchman Johannes Staune-Mittet (Team Visma) survived alone, who also ended up neutral.
Yates and Almeida were always hidden in the first chasing group and their rivals had no choice on the final climb to the Col de la Croix, where they chose not to sprint against each other and hand in hand to cross the finish line.
