Pre-Cursor TdF24-25
Despite the two-man break still being up the road, there will still big points available at the intermediate sprint in Aoste. Mads Pedersen (Lidl-Trek) got the maximum still available. It was Sam Bennett (Decathlon-Ag2r-La Mondiale) getting around Biniam Girmay (Intermache-Wanty) for second out of the peloton. All Pedersen has to do is place well in the finale and he will be the new Maillot Vert. Spoiler Alert: He crashed within site of the finish and Girmay went nineth, so he will now pull on the sprinter's jersey. It should be noted that will he will be the first Black African to wear green, he is not the first Black African to wear a leader's jersey in the Tour.
