A Small Advantage CdD25-14
This quartet of Florian Lipowitz (Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe), Andreas Leknessund (Uno X-Mobility), Harold Tejada (XDS-Astana), and Julien Bernard (Lidl-Trek) used the final climb of the day, the Cote du Chateau Jaune, to open up a gap on their erstwhile breakaway companions. They build up about ten seconds on those behind before they started playing around. Once they decided to not work together, this little advantage was lost despite having only fifteen kilometers to race. Further back the peloton was just over a minute behind. That was the closest they were going to get to the eventual stage winner. The Maillot Jaune was even further back, so most likely, whoever wins the stage takes over that yellow jersey.
