38 km:

In a setting that will make you phobic of caving (but masterful if you like rivers and pebbles), Mollema has already widened a gap of 40 seconds.

Well, there is still a long way to go but the guy is used to the offense and the terrain suits him well.

42 km:

Bauke Mollema set off on his own!

The Dutchman is going for a solo marathon.

48 km: 

Woods took off on a downhill bend.

Varnish on the left side and it's not as valiant as the others go by.

50 km:

The Poels pill on video, in front of a Woods who does not need a Master of mathematics to understand that he is virtually wearing the polka dot jersey.

⛰ Côte de Galinagues



⚪🔴 🇨🇦 @rusty_woods scores only 1 point, but it's enough to become the new virtual polka dot jersey.

54 km: 

Pierre Roland continues his work of destruction by placing his 128th acceleration of the day, I think he is "a little" in legs. 

57.3 km:

Wouter Poels released a sprint that Cavendish would not have renounced to nab the 2 points at the top while Woods had tried to do him backwards.

From the start it was a feud between the two.

58 km:

The gap has just passed to almost 6 minutes, either the peloton has stopped at the bistro, or it is the GPS which has abused the little yellow.

58.8 km: ATTAQUOUNETTE BY PIERRE ROLAND!

59.6 km:

The four French people who came out last in the peloton barely catch the leading car at the foot of the Gallinagues hill.

Now that there is only one breakaway, the peloton and the laggards, France TV will perhaps be able to give us correct compositions because what a mess when we take along the way ...

66 km:

The peloton begins to let slip, the three leaders joined in the descent by the Martin group have two minutes and a half in advance.

73 km:

Oh yes, we didn't tell you

earlier

...

PIERRE ROLAND ATTACK !!

(well suddenly it is always inserted)

Valentin Madouas and Elie Gesbert returned to the B&B Hotels duo but the gap remained stable, at 1'45 "from the top three. The Martin group did not manage to come back either, still at 30".

74 km: 

Difficult day for Bouhanni after his fall yesterday, the ugly duckling of the French peloton is 14 minutes behind the leading men.

78 km:

The switch to France 2 while the group Martin, Mollema, Fraille, Higuita and company tries to take back Poels, Woods and Cattaneo in the ascent of the Col de la Croix des Morts.

And other little guys come out of the pack.

80 km:

The UAE have their ass between two chairs at the head of the peloton.

Let go or catch up via the Guillaume Martin pass, 9 minutes away from General de Pogacar?

86 km:

Descent at full speed for these very solid boys who can clearly fight for the victory if it takes the field.

Poels and Woods have taken a step ahead.

90 km:

Aerial shot on the descent from the Col de Montsegur with a breakaway split into three small groups.

The leading men with Wout Poels, Mattia Cataneo, Michael Woods, Omar Fraille and Bauke Mollema have a big minute thirty lead on the yellow jersey.

Dring dring!

The stage is already well underway, I find you the time to check that a brief has not fallen during my lunch break.

In the meantime, a little candy with the coffee, here is the anticipated summary of the step:

While a few breakaways passed with only thirty seconds ahead at the top of the Col du Bac, the peloton tightened the screw to swallow them before the intermediate sprint. Comfortable green jersey, Cavendish does not bother to dispute it: at Deceuninck, the day is for Alaf '. Colbrelli rules everyone before the first slopes of the Montségur pass where Ineos and UAE look at each other like a dog. It is on the next difficulty, the Col de la Croix des Morts, that our rainbow Juju lights a wick. Followed by Quintana, van Avermaet, Elissonde and van Aert, the five men will compete for the points of the polka dot jersey on each climb. In the sprint, van Aert jumps Alaf 'on the line. The seum for Julian.

Hello everyone, welcome to this live!

To get the weekend off to a good start, we'll hang out together on the sofa watching the Tour de France, with a very nice stopover for backpackers: three passes in the 2nd category and two in the 3rd category.

Nothing too indigestible like that, but still enough to make the difference and go and play a great solo stage victory for Alaphilippe, van Aert and company.

And as a bonus, during the moments a little dead, the magnificent landscapes of the South-West of France (how come I'm not objective?)!

Ideal for digesting your cassoulet from Carcassonne, from which a small peloton sets off after the abandonments of Barguil and Kargh Anderson.

> See you at 2:45 p.m. !!!
