Finally Getting a Stage! TdF24-56
Jasper Philipsen (Alpecin-Deceuninck) finally got to celebrate a stage victory in this year's Tour. He combined a perfect lead-out by his team with a clean sprint to claim victory in Saint Amand Montrond. He held of a closing Biniam Girmay (Intermache-Wanty) and got pass Pascal Ackermann (Israel-Premier Tech). He was understandably thrilled to get the monkey off his back. He has finished second twice, one of those result in being relegated for dangerous sprinting. So it was a relief for him to win, and to do so without endangering any of the others vying for the stage.
