Race report
Alexis Gougeard, William Clarke, Antoine Duchesne, Marco Minnaard and Rémy Mertz make it into today’s breakaway. Minnaard takes most KOM points at the first climb, something he repeats on the second KOM, Col Pierre Pertuis, and the third and fourth, Le Sommet. So the Dutchman takes the mountain jersey.

The second time over Le Sommet Minnaard and Gougeard are the last men standing with a lead of 1 minute, while leader Matthews has been dropped in the peloton.

With 10 kms to go Dan Martin bridges across to the two leaders before the rest of the peloton appears. Gougeard pushes on alone, but he is brought back 2 kms before the line.

In the ensuing sprint Omar Fraile outguns Sonny Colbrelli and Rui Costa. As Matthews drops on GC Primoz Roglic moves into the overall lead.
