Ready to Fly? TdF23-56
Once the GC battled had cooled behind, it was time for the remaining break away to get on with the task of trying to win the stage into Lissoire. Using the descent off of the Col de Gvery, Julian Alaphilippe (Soudal-Quick Step) caught Matej Mohoric (Bahrain-Victorious) who had been the first over the climb. As he caught Slovakian, Alaphilippe encouraged him to get onto his wheel. Together they will have a better chance of staying away for the next 137 kilometers. Clearly, that is a long way to hold off the entire peloton, and those chasing from quite a bit closer.
