Searching for the Lead Group TdF23-59
The trio of Mattias Skjelmose (Lidl-Trek), Michal Kwiatkowski (Ineos-Grenadiers) and Julian Alaphilippe (Soudal-Quick Step) caught up to Warren Barguil (Arkea-Samsic) as they searched for a total of six guys up the road. Barguil was drifting back on the final climb of the day, the Cote de la Chapelle Marcousse. He couldn't hold the pace of the leaders, but perhaps he was waiting for these three guys so they could chase the leaders together. Alas, they never quite caught more than a sight of them for the rest of the day.
