The final attack was launched by Julian Alphilippe (Etixx-Quickstep), and it was his that stuck! Alphilippe pushed off from the wheel of Peter Stetina (Trek-Segafredo) with less than 500 meters to the summit. It was his patience that made his burst of effort so successful. His victory atop Gibraltar Road also gave him the overall race lead. You should know that the efforts of the first to attack, Nielson Powless (Axeon Hagens Berman) earned him a 5th on the stage and a fifth on the General Classification.
