The French Are Over the Top TdF22-61
It was two Frenchmen who led the race over the top of the Col de Telegraphe. Behind Simon Geschke (Cofidis) was doing enough to hold onto his Maillot a Pois as he went over third. But it was Pierre Latour (TotalEnergies) who took maximum King of the Mountain points with Warren Barguil (Arkea-Samsic) on his wheel. There is plenty of climbing and KOM points yet to come in today's stage, but it was a good start for the two Frenchmen. All three placings were taken by men who are on French 'wildcard' teams.
