Pushing Their Advantage TdF24-72
Using the first climb of the day as a launching point, Richard Carapaz (EF Education-EasyPost) jumped out of the peloton. In what was first a defensive move for his teammate in the Maillot a Pois, Tobias Johannessen (Uno-X Mobility) went with the Ecuadorian. The two build up a bit of a gap on the group containing the Maillot Jaune (and the Maillot a Pois) as they dove down the other side of the Cote de Blachon. Carapaz has been trying to get a stage win ever since he lost his yellow jersey during stage 3 of this Tour.
