Little Chance TdF24-23
Perhaps because they knew it would be futile to try and hold off the sprinters' teams it wasn't until 45 kilometers before a break away got formed. It was Quentin Pacher (Groupama-FDJ) that got off the front alone. Within a kilometer or two he was joined by Matteo Vercher (TotalEnergies). I believe that Groupama-FDJ has been in every single break away of the Tour thus far. The duo built up a nearly five minute lead on those behind before they started the chase in earnest behind.
