Stage 17 is a spectacle starting with a battle to be in the break. And not without reason. Simon Geschke is one of the early attackers and he takes an impressive victory home after a 50 kilometres solo over two mountains. Froome cements his lead with Contador crashing in the downhill of the Col d'Allos, while Van Garderen abandons.
