Beautiful images from Monday's stage! Mountain biker Valentin Anouilh jumped over the Tour de France platoon during the tenth stage. It took the Frenchman months to make the path roadworthy. The discharge is therefore enormous.

The last kilometers in Toulouse are quite narrow. From about five kilometers it goes quite a bit up and at two kilometers there is a sharp turn to the right. For the rest, go straight to the finish. # TDF19

Team Sunweb today goes for Cees Bol for a possible mass sprint and not for Michael Matthews. "With Cees we have more chance of winning in this ride than with Michael," Sunweb team leader Aike Visbeek told NOS . Bol: "I can win today, but I can also finish in twentieth. It's exciting, but also a great opportunity."

Still 146 km - The lead of Calmejane, Perez, Rossetto and Aimé De Gendt runs a little further: 2.45. In this stage we get another climb of the third category and one of the fourth category. That seems too little to give this flight a real chance of success.

The success of Jumbo-Visma in the first ten days of the Tour de France also strikes the other teams. The riders of the Dutch formation feel a lot of respect for their performance. Mike Teunissen saw one rider after another come over last week who congratulated him on his stage win and his two days in the yellow leader's jersey. "Up to and including last Sunday, boys came to me who I know by name only." Congratulations, they said. that Jumbo-Visma is also highly regarded within the peloton. " (1/2)
