Using the First Climb TDU25-37
These two, Pablo Torres (UAE Team Emirates) and Juan Pedro Lopez (Lidl-Trek) used the first climb of the stage to attack their erstwhile breakaway companions. The two were the best place in the general classification of the break, particularly Torres who started the day just twenty-five seconds off the lead. Lopez used the climb up Wickham Hill to try and drop Torres in hopes that the peloton would stop trying to chase them all down. Of course, Lopez wasn't much further down the GC, so he, too, was a target for the chasing peloton.
