Melanoma: It Started with a Freckle

The race: 115 riders began stage 8 at 1:54. There were 8 non-starters: Darwin Atapuma and Stéphane Rossetto (Cofidis), Michael Woods and Alberto Bettiol (EF), Pierre Rolland and Cyril Gautier (Vital Concept), Thomas Degand (Wanty) and Casper Pedersen (Sunweb). Shortly after the start Edward Ravasi (UAE) abandoned. As the stage progressed, other riders abandoned, including former GC leader Adam Yates.

Here's the organizer's final race summary:

The last stage of the 71st Critérium du Dauphiné went to Dylan van Baarle (Team Ineos) throughout a breakaway from far out. The Dutchman beat Australia’s Jack Haig (Mitchelton-Scott) whose team-mate and former race leader Adam Yates pulled out as many riders got sick the day after they faced very difficult stormy conditions. Jakob Fuglsang (Astana) won his second Dauphiné after 2017 meanwhile Tejay van Garderen (EF Education) and Emanuel Buchmann (Bora-Hansgrohe) rounded out the final podium.

115 riders have taken the start in Cluses. 8 non-starters: Darwin Atapuma and Stéphane Rossetto (Cofidis), Michael Woods and Alberto Bettiol (EF), Pierre Rolland and Cyril Gautier (Vital Concept), Thomas Degand (Wanty) and Casper Pedersen (Sunweb). 12 riders took off at km 12: Dylan van Baarle (Ineos), Jack Haig (Mitchelton-Scott), Julian Alaphilippe (Deceuninck-Quick Step), Felix Grossschartner (Bora-Hansgrohe), Carlos Verona (Movistar), Sébastien Reichenbach (Groupama-FDJ), Sepp Kuss (Jumbo-Visma), Julien Bernard (Trek-Segafredo), Carl Fredrik Hagen (Lotto-Soudal), Hermann Pernsteiner (Bahrain-Merida), Alessandro De Marchi (CCC) and Warren Barguil (Arkea-Samsic). Alaphilippe secured the white and blue polka dot jersey in the first two climbs of the day and Nils Politt (Katusha-Alpecin) made it across by himself to increase the number of escapees to 13 at Les Gets, km 20.

Alaphilippe kept on scoring KOM points as he passed first at col du Corbier (cat. 1, km 49), 3’45’’ before the peloton led by Astana after a time difference of 4’05’’ was recorded at the bottom of the climb. The maximum time gap was 4’25’’ before runner up Adam Yates (Mitchelton-Scott) pulled out due to sickness with 50km to go. He was the fourth of the twelve pre-race favorites to call it a race after Chris Froome, Tom Dumoulin and Woods. 30km before the end, different teams seized the reins of the peloton, successively UAE Team Emirates, AG2R-La Mondiale and Ineos. A few attacks took place in the front group in the cat. 1 côte des Rives. Haig went solo and formed a leading duo with Van Baarle 15km before the end.

Eventually, no attack took place in the yellow-blue jersey group and Astana was back at the helm in the last climb to Champéry. Haig and Van Baarle forged on. Van Baarle won stage 8, making it a double for Team Ineos on the final weekend of the Dauphiné after Wout Poels won the queen stage at Les Sept Laux-Pipay. It’s his second victory of the 2019 season after the overall classification of the Herald Sun Tour in Australia in February. Fuglsang came home safely to win his second Critérium du Dauphiné after 2017. The Danish winner of Liège-Bastogne-Liège this year is in the form of his life ahead of the Tour de France.

Olympics 50 Craziest Stories

The race: 132 riders began stage seven at 12:57 PM. There were five non-starters: Davide Ballerini (Astana), Jens Debusschere and Mads Würtz Schmidt (Katusha-Alpecin), André Greipel (Arkea-Samsic) and Tom Dumoulin (Sunweb).

Here's the organizer's stage seven summmary:

Wout Poels (Ineos) won stage 7 at the eleventh hour as he overhauled Jakob Fuglsang (Astana) and Emanuel Buchmann (Bora-Hansgrohe) who had attacked in the last two kilometres of the uphill finish to Les Sept Laux-Pipay. Time gaps between the favourites were tight but Fuglsang took over from Adam Yates (Mitchelton-Scott) in the overall lead by the small margin of 8’’. It was an epic stage in stormy conditions on the eve of the grand finale in Champéry, Switzerland.

132 riders took the start of stage 7 at Saint-Genix-les-Villages where Davide Ballerini (Astana), Jens Debusschere and Mads Würtz Schmidt (Katusha-Alpecin), André Greipel (Arkea-Samsic) and Tom Dumoulin (Sunweb) were non-starters. After several unsuccessful skirmishes, 22 riders took off after 20km of racing: Gianni Moscon and Dylan van Baarle (Ineos), Jack Haigh and Damian Howson (Mitchelton-Scott), Mikaël Chérel (AG2R-La Mondiale), Julian Alaphilippe and Philippe Gilbert (Deceuninck-Quick Step), Felix Grossschartner (Bora-Hansgrohe), Alexey Lutsenko and Magnus Cort (Astana), Jesper Hansen (Cofidis), Ruben Fernandez (Movistar), Lennard Hofstede (Jumbo-Visma), Niklas Eg and Edward Theuns (Trek-Segafredo), Michael Woods (EF Education First), Rémy Mertz (Lotto-Soudal), Mark Padun (Bahrain-Merida), Joey Rosskopf (CCC), Quentin Pacher (Vital Concept), Kevin Ledanois (Arkea-Samsic) and Rob Power (Sunweb). Woods took 3’’ of time bonus at the intermediate sprint in Nuances (km 34.5) ahead of virtual race leader Lutsenko who got 2’’. At that point, the Mitchelton-Scott team of race leader Adam Yates was two minutes adrift.

Benoît Cosnefroy (AG2R-La Mondiale), Edward Ravasi (UAE Team Emirates), Stéphane Rossetto (Cofidis), Julien Bernard (Trek-Segafredo), Nils Politt (Katusha-Alpecin), Pierre Rolland (Vital Concept-B&B Hôtel) and Jérémy Maison (Arkea-Samsic) rejoined the leading group in the downhill of the col de l’Épine. After cresting in the first position, Alaphilippe continued to speed up. Only Hofstede went with him. The leading duo was 30’’ ahead of the 27 chasers and 3’ ahead of the peloton in Chambéry, km 56. The maximum deficit of the bunch was 4’30’’. Theuns waited for the peloton before the col du Granier where Alaphilippe and Hofstede passed in that order with an advantage of 1’15’’ over the Lutsenko-group. Hofstede crashed in the downhill but made it back at the bottom. Moscon and Maison rode away from their group. A new chasing group was formed behind lone leader Hofstede when Alaphilippe sat up with 40km to go meanwhile the peloton was timed two minutes adrift.

20 riders formed the front group in the third climb of the day up to col de Marcieu. Woods and Lutsenko rode away 2km before the summit. It became a leading quintet with 20km to go with Woods, Lutsenko, Chérel, Moscon and Hansen. Power, Cort, Grossschartner and Haig came across to make it a 9-man group at the head in the final climb 17km before the end whereas Movistar took over from Mitchelton-Scott at the head of the chasing peloton. Nairo Quintana (Movistar) attacked with just over 11km remaining under the pouring rain. Michael Kwiatkowski (Ineos) accompanied him. With 10km to go, Woods, Lutsenko and Hansen opened the road. Woods and Lutsenko were first rejoined by Kwiatkowski 7km away from the ski resort of Pipay. All GC contenders were together again with 4km to go. Romain Bardet (AG2R-La Mondiale) attacked with 3.2km remaining. The next to try was Emanuel Buchmann (Bora-Hansgrohe) one kilometre further. Jakob Fuglsang (Astana) caught him and forced Yates to chase with Bardet, Thibaut Pinot (Groupama-FDJ), Dan Martin (UAE Team Emirates) and Tejay van Garderen (EF Education First) while Wout Poels (Ineos) overhauled Fuglsang and Buchmann to avenge his leader Chris Froome who quit the race three days before in dramatic circumstances.

Poels won stage 7 ahead while Pinot, Dan Martin and Yates finished in that order. Fuglsang took the lead with 8’’ over Yates one day before the conclusion of the 71st Critérium du Dauphiné.

Friday (Vendredi), June 14: Stage 6, Saint Vulbas Plaine de l'Ain – Saint Michel de Maurienne, 229 km

Stage 6 map & profile | Stage 6 photos

Julian Alaphilippe

Could it be any closer? Julian Alaphilippe (left) just beats Gregor Mühlberger.

Rated ascents:

Weather at the finish city of Saint Michel de Maurienne at 1:50 PM, local time: 25C (77F), rain showers, with the wind coming from the east at 24 km/hr (15 mph). Occasional rain should continue throughout the afternoon.

Paris–Roubaix: The Inside Story

The race: 139 riders began stage six under pouring rain at 10:25. There were two non-starters: Shane Archbold (Bora-Hansgrohe) and Harm Vanhoucke (Lotto-Soudal). Later Alexandre Geniez (Ag2r) and Bart Declerq (Wanty-Gobert) abandoned.

Here's the organizer's stage summary:

Hot favourite Julian Alaphilippe (Deceuninck-Quick Step) took the highly expected stage win at Saint-Michel-de-Maurienne but it was a very tight finish with his breakaway companion Gregor Mühlberger (Bora-Hansgrohe) while the third man Alessandro De Marchi (CCC) finished a few meters behind. Adam Yates retained the overall lead.

139 riders took the start of stage 6 in Saint-Vulbas-Plaine de l’Ain under the pouring rain. After a very fast start, Julian Alaphilippe (Deceuninck-Quick Step) was first to ride away from the peloton. He took Gregor Mühlberger (Bora-Hansgrohe) and Alessandro De Marchi (CCC) with him. As some riders tried to go across, the peloton split in two parts with race leader Adam Yates (Mitchelton-Scott) in the first group. Team Sunweb considered to bring the breakaway back as it was Casper Pedersen’s intention to go for the King of the Mountains competition but they surrendered and Mitchelton-Scott returned to the front of the peloton, albeit with no interest to chase the leading trio down. The time gap went up to 10’40’’ at km 85 between the first two of the eight climbs of the day, after which Alaphilippe had already accumulated just as many KOM points as Pedersen.

At col du Frêne (km 131.5), Alaphilippe became the virtual lone leader of the KOM competition meanwhile the peloton had a deficit of 13’50’’ but his position on GC, 16’04’’ adrift, wasn’t a big concern for the Mitchelton-Scott squad that controlled the pack for most of the race despite the crash of Nic Schultz along with Jakob Fulgsang (Astana), the winner of the 2017 Critérium du Dauphiné whose right elbow was injured in that incident. The Frenchman was also first at côte de Châteauneuf (km 144.5), côte d’Aiton (km 154.5), côte de Saint-Georges-d’Hurtières (km 165) and côte du Bocher (km 203.5) before the leading trio tackled the final loop including the second category col de Beaune after passing the finishing line in Saint-Michel-de-Maurienne 16.5km before the end with an advantage of 9’35’’. Mühlberger was ahead of Alaphilippe atop the last climb while De Marchi was in difficulty.

Guillaume Martin (Wanty-Groupe Gobert) attacked from the group of the favourites led by Team Ineos up the hill. He was brought back before the top. Mühlberger gave a hard time to Alaphilippe till the very end even though the Frenchman managed to get him launch the sprint. The current world’s number 1 did his best to overhaul him but had to throw his bike on the line to be declared the winner by the photo-finish. This is his second stage win at the Critérium du Dauphiné after stage 4 to Lans-en-Vercors last year. It’s also his tenth win this season. He tops the tally of international pro cycling. Now the King of the Mountains of the Dauphiné, he is on the track for doing just as well as last year at the Tour de France.

Rated ascents:

Weather at the finish city of Voiron at 1:30 PM, local time: 25C (77F), sunny, with the wind from the west-southwest at 6 km/hr (4 mph). No rain is forecast.

The race: 141 riders began stage 5 at 11:33. There was one non-starter, Jacques Janse van Rensburg (Dimension Data), who is sick.

Here's is the organizer's stage summary:

Cycling's World Championships

Twenty four hours after creating a big surprise in the individual time trial, former cyclo-cross champion Wout van Aert (Jumbo-Visma) outsprinted hot favourite Sam Bennett (Bora-Hansgrohe) in a bunch gallop in Voiron where Julian Alaphilippe (Deceuninck-Quick Step) rounded out the podium. Adam Yates (Mitchelton-Scott) retained the overall lead before the last three stages in the mountains.

141 riders took the start of stage 5 at Boën-sur-Lignon. Jacques Janse van Rensburg (Dimension Data) was a non-starter due to sickness overnight. Yoann Bagot (Vital Concept-B&B Hôtels) was first on the attack right after flag off. He was rejoined two kilometres further by Stéphane Rossetto (Cofidis) and at km 8 by Alessandro De Marchi (CCC). It didn’t take any longer for Bora-Hansgrohe to seize the reins of the peloton as the deficit was 3’ at km 10 of racing. The Mitchelton-Scott team of race leader Adam Yates was prompt to take over and get South African champion Daryl Impey to set the pace of the peloton. The maximum time gap of 3’25’’ was recorded at the foot of the côte de St-Symphorien-sur-Coise, at the top of which (km 48) De Marchi scored one KOM point after Rossetto had passed first atop the côte de St-Galmier (km 28).

De Marchi also passed first at côte de Givors (km 87) but it was Bagot’s turn at côte de Vienne (km 111.5). After dropping to two minutes, the time difference went above three minutes again with 80km to go. Rémi Cavagna was designated by Deceuninck-Quick Step to set the pace of the peloton. He rode too fast with 60km to go, so he was called back to avoid an early regrouping before he resumed his work. With 25km to go, the time difference was down to 55’’.

It was all together again 1.2km before the finishing line in Voiron. Edvald Boasson Hagen (Dimension Data) and Philippe Gilbert (Deceuninck-Quick Step) tried to anticipate the bunch gallop in the curvy finale but they were pulled back and Wout van Aert (Jumbo-Visma) launched from far out a powerful sprint. Sam Bennett (Bora-Hansgrohe) couldn’t pass the Belgian who is the first rider to win two stages of the Dauphiné in a row since Chris Froome took the last two in 2015. But it’s surely something exceptional to add a bunch sprint victory to a time trial best time!

Wednesday (Mercredi), June 12: Stage 4, Roanne 26.1 km individual time trial

Stage 4 map & profile | Stage 4 photos

Wput van Aert

Wout van Aert turns in a stunning ride.

Weather at the race city of Roanne at 1:40 PM, local time: 19C (67F), mostly cloudy, with the wind from the south-southwest at 18 km/hr (11 mph). It should not rain until just before 7 PM.

The race: While checking out the course of the Dauphiné's stage four time trial, Chris Froome (Team INEOS) fell and broke his femur. He will not ride the Tour de France.

Jaco Venter (Dimension Data) was the first rider off at 1:15

Here's the organizer's summary:

Plato's Apology

Former cyclo-cross world champion Wout van Aert (Jumbo-Visma) created a huge surprise in beating the time trial specialists to claim his first victory of the 2019 season with stage 4 of the 71st Critérium du Dauphiné. Tejay van Garderen (EF Education First) and Tom Dumoulin (Sunweb) rounded the podium and Adam Yates (Mitchelton-Scott) moved into the yellow-blue jersey with a small advantage of four seconds over Dylan Teuns (Bahrain-Merida) but the sad news of the day was the serious crash of Chris Froome at training. The four-time winner of the Tour de France will miss the race this July.

142 riders took part in the 26.1km long individual time trial around Roanne. Chris Froome was a non-starter after he crashed during the recon 10.5km before the finish. Blown away by a gust of wind, he hit a wall and will miss the Tour de France due to serious injuries. Jaco Venter (Dimension Data), Julius van den Berg (EF Education First), James Whelan (EF Education First), Martijn Tusveld (Sunweb) successively scored a best time at the finish before Alex Dowsett (Katusha-Alpecin) set a time of reference at the average speed of 44.4km/h.

Rémi Cavagna (Deceuninck-Quick Stop) was first to complete the course over 45km/h but his joy of holding the best performance was short lived as his team-mate Julian Alaphilippe rode 11 seconds faster than him despite announcing in the morning that he wouldn’t give it all. However, it was before Tom Dumoulin (Sunweb) was on the road. The Dutchman tied up with the current world’s number in the first part of the race but rode one second per kilometre faster than him to score a new best time at the finish: 34’25’’ at 45.5km/h. It didn’t stay as the best because Wout van Aert (Jumbo-Visma) rode sensationally. The young Belgian had 18’’ of an advantage over the former world champion for ITT at the intermediate time check at the top of the hill. He increased his it on the rolling section to beat Dumoulin by 47 seconds and win the second time trial of his pro career after the 6-km prologue of the 2016 Tour of Belgium in which he bettered Tony Martin by two seconds. His average speed around Roanne was 46.560km/h.

In the fight for the yellow-blue jersey, Dylan Teuns (Bahrain-Merida) defended himself greatly but missed out by only four seconds. Second of the Dauphiné overall last year, Adam Yates (Mitchelton-Scott), 6th of the time trial, became the new race leader with an advantage of 4’’ over the Belgian, 6’’ over Tejay van Garderen (EF Education First) and 7’’ over Jakub Fulgsang (Astana). Among the favourites, Romain Bardet (AG2R-La Mondiale), now 14th at 1’27’’, and Michael Woods (EF Education First), 16th at 1’43’’, are the biggest losers of the day while Guillaume Martin (Wanty-Groupe Gobert) dropped down from second to 18th on GC.

Here's the organizer's stage three summary:

Olympics 50 Craziest Stories

Ireland’s Sam Bennett (Bora-Hansgrohe) won stage 3 of the 71st Critérium du Dauphiné in a bunch gallop in Riom. Wout van Aert (Jumbo-Visma) and Davide Ballerini rounded out the podium. Dylan Teuns (Bahrain-Merida) retained the overall lead ahead of the 26.1km individual time trial in Roanne.

145 riders took the start of stage 3 in Le Puy-en-Velay. Natnael Berhane (Cofidis) and Quentin Pacher (Vital Concept-B&B Hôtels) rode away right after flag off. Berhane passed the côte d’Allègre (cat. 4, km 24.5) in first position with an advantage of 3’55’’ over the peloton. A maximum time gap of 4’05’’ was recorded at km 30. The Bahrain-Merida team of race leader Dylan Teuns set the tempo of the peloton on a moderated speed as the leading duo covered only 37km in the first hour, after which Arkea-Samsic and Bora-Hansgrohe seized the command of the pack with the aim of a bunch sprint finish. Deceuninck-Quick Step came in help with 65km to go.

Berhane went on to collect one point at the top of each climb: côte d’Augerolles (km 105.5), côte de Courpière (km 117.5) and côte de Coulaud (km 121). One hour before the end, the deficit of the peloton was reduced to less than one minute with the same teams of the sprinters swapping turns at the head of the pack at a moderated speed. It was all together again with 12km to go as the bunch delayed the regrouping as much as possible.

The Bora-Hansgrohe team paved the way at perfection for Bennett who launched his sprint with 200 metres to go and took his time to celebrate his first ever stage victory at the Critérium du Dauphiné before he crossed the line. It’s his seventh win this year.

Bicycle History

The race: 154 riders began stage 2 at 11:57 AM. After about 60 kilometers Stephen Cummings (Dimension Data) abandoned. Then six more riders quit: Tim Declercq (Deceuninck-Quick Step), Nacer Bouhanni and Geoffrey Soupe (Cofidis), Maarten Wynants (Jumbo-Visma), Feng Chun Kai (Bahrain-Merida) and Fabien Doubey (Wanty-Groupe Gobert).

Here's the organizer's stage two summary:

Belgium’s Dylan Teuns (Bahrain-Merida) took the victory at the end of an epic stage in the 71st Critérium du Dauphiné as he outclassed Guillaume Martin (Wanty-Groupe Gobert) in a two-man sprint a few seconds before the group of the favourites on a very competitive day of racing. The 27 year old also moved into the overall lead, almost two years after his last win, the general classification of the 2017 Arctic Race of Norway.

Davide Ballerini (Astana) was the first attacker before Mikael Chérel (AG2R-La Mondiale), Gregor Mühlberger (Bora-Hansgrohe), Lennard Hofstede (Jumbo-Visma) and Julien Bernard (Trek-Segafredo) rode away from the peloton. They were rejoined by Rémi Cavagna (Deceuninck-Quick Step) but up the Côte de Moussages (cat. 2, km 11), a royal breakaway took shape with 14 riders: Michal Kwiatkowski (Ineos), Jack Haig (Mitchelton-Scott), Benoit Cosnefroy (AG2R-La Mondiale), Julian Alaphilippe and Cavagna (Deceuninck-Quick Step), Emanuel Buchmann and Gregor Mühlberger (Bora-Hansgrohe), Gorka Izagirre (Astana), Ruben Fernandez (Movistar), David Gaudu (Groupama-FDJ), Sepp Kuss (Jumbo-Visma), Carl Fredrik Hagen (Lotto-Soudal), Alessandro De Marchi (CCC) and Tom Dumoulin (Sunweb). Kwiatkowski was called back to the pack by Team Ineos who seized the command of the peloton as Stefan de Bod was also reined in after being sent in between the 13 escapees and the bunch by Dimension Data, the team of race leader Edvald Boasson Hagen.

The breakaway group recorded a maximum advantage of 1’50’’ atop the côte de Cheylade, km 46, after Chris Froome had a flat tyre. The triple winner of the Critérium du Dauphiné was dragged back to the pack and his team kept chasing strongly as the front group comprised big names like Alaphilippe, Dumoulin, Buchmann, Izagirre and Gaudu who are potential yellow-blue jersey contenders. Following several withdrawals including those of Stephen Cummings (Dimension Data) and Nacer Bouhanni (Cofidis), the peloton split in two parts with green jersey wearer Philippe Gilbert (Deceuninck-Quick Step) caught at the back. In the feed zone (km 96), Cavagna rode away solo from the leading group. He was later chased by Cosnefroy, Alaphilippe, Hagen and De Marchi. The quintet passed Brioude (km 111), the hometown of Romain Bardet (AG2R-La Mondiale), with an advantage of 20’’ over their former breakaway companions and 1’25’’ over the peloton led by Ineos.

After the 13-man front group was reunited and Cavagna attacked a second time, Dumoulin accelerated up the côte de la Baraque with 52km to go. Buchmann, Gaudu and Izagirre went with him. De Marchi briefly rejoined them but struggled to hold the pace. The leading quartet was reeled in with 35km to go. 12 riders formed a new front group 30km before the end: Gilbert and Petr Vakoc (Deceuninck-Quick Step), Dylan Teuns (Bahrain-Merida), Serge Pauwels and Pawel Bernas (CCC), Guillaume Martin (Wanty-Groupe Gobert), Rudy Molard (Groupama-FDJ), Chérel (AG2R-La Mondiale), Alexey Lutsenko (Astana), Darwin Atapuma (Cofidis), Rob Power (Sunweb) and Nils Politt (Katusha-Alpecin). Teuns and G. Martin rode away in the last climb of the day, the côte de St-Victor-sur-Arlanc, with 20km to go. Chris Froome and Wout Poels (Ineos), Adam Yates (Mitchelton-Scott), Jakob Fuglsang and Lutsenko (Astana), Nairo Quintana (Movistar), Thibaut Pinot (Groupama-FDJ), Michael Woods (EF) and Vakoc formed the strong group of the favourites (without Romain Bardet, Richie Porte, Dan Martin and Steven Kruijswijk who stayed behind) but they didn’t manage to come across to Teuns and Martin.

In a slightly uphill finish in Craponne-sur-Arzon, the Belgian who previously made the top 3 in Flèche wallonne and the Tour of Lombardy proved to be a little bit faster than the Frenchman. Teuns is the new leader of the Dauphiné.

Here's the organizer's stage summary:

Cycling's 50 Craziest Stories

A regular scorer at the Critérium du Dauphiné, Norway’s Edvald Boasson Hagen (Dimension Data) claimed his fifth stage win since 2010 as he outsprinted Belgians Philippe Gilbert (Deceuninck-Quick Step) and Wout van Aert (Jumbo-Visma) in Jussac where very few sprinters arrived in the front group with the GC contenders.

154 took the start of stage 1 in the 71st Critérium du Dauphiné in Aurillac. Following a very animated beginning of the race, six riders took off at km 10: Oliver Naesen (AG2R-La Mondiale), Magnus Cort (Astana), Niklas Eg (Trek-Segafredo), Julien Vermote (Dimension Data), Fabien Doubey (Wanty-Groupe Gobert) and Casper Pedersen (Sunweb). Their advantage of 3’20’’ at the foot of the Puy Mary, the first hill of the race (10.6km, first category), was down to 2’40’’ at the top (km 34) where Pedersen passed first ahead of Cort. Pedersen also crested the Côte de Besse (cat. 4, km 68) and the Côte de St-Cernin (cat. 3, km 81) in pole position.

Vermote was first to get dropped from the breakaway group in the first time up the Côte de Roquenatou where Pedersen secured the first polka dot jersey. Since the very beginning of the action, it was Bora-Hansgrohe leading the pack, mainly with Cesare Benedetti, the winner of stage 13 in the Giro d’Italia last month, in first position. Deceunick-Quick Step took over with 25km to go and reduced the gap to 1’15’’. In the second ascent to Roquenatou, Eg got dropped from the front group. Zdenek Stybar put the hammer down with Julian Alaphilippe on his wheel but it was Bjorg Lambrecht (Lotto-Soudal) who went clear off the peloton while only Naesen and Cort remained in the lead towards the top of the hill. Lambrecht crested in first position while Gregor Mühlberger (Bora-Hansgrohe) went in between the leading trio and the main bunch led by Mitchelton-Scott after the last climb.

Bahrain-Merida was the second team chasing. It was all together again with just 600 meters to go. Daryl Impey (Mitchelton-Scott) looked very well positioned in the 60-man group but Alaphilippe sped up to lead Philippe Gilbert out. However, Edvald Boasson Hagen still had the capacity to accelerate and get his fifth stage victory at the Critérium du Dauphiné since he made his debut in the event in 2010. The first one was won on the circuit of the 1980 world championship in Sallanches on the last day of the race. His last stage win at the Dauphiné was in 2016 in Belley. This is the third victory of the Norwegian this year after stages at the Vuelta Communidad Valenciana and the Tour of Norway.
