Luisle takes victory in a stage that was blocked for ten minutes by some protesters

Date:

Tense stage in Tadej Pogacar’s team, which lost George Bennett to Covid before the start and keeps Rafal Majka in the race despite also testing positive. The Tour leader is left without the New Zealander for days after sending Vegard Stake Laengen home and losing Matteo Trentin before the start.

The stage was clarified in a mass breakout that was stopped by a protest for ten minutes. With 40 kilometers to go, some chained protesters protesting in defense of the Mont Blanc environs sat in the middle of the road and forced the podium to stop.

The test was resumed and everything was still to be decided. The most capable at the end was Magnus Cort Nielsen (EF), who overtook Nick Schultz (BikeExchange) on the line. Third was Muleño Luis León Sánchez (Bahrain), who launched a good attack at the end. Luisle grazed the stick.
