Weather at the finish city of Le Mans at 2:35 PM, local time: 16C (61F), sunny, with the wind from the south-southeast at 6 km/hr (4 mph). No rain is forecast.

The race: Axel Laurance (INEOS Grenadiers) did not start.

Hee's the report from stage four second-place & GC third-place Corbin Strong's NSN Cycling Team:

Corbin Strong wrapped up an impressive week for NSN at Region Pays de la Loire as he moved up to third on GC after placing second in a thrilling final stage in Le Mans on Friday.

After teammate Ethan Vernon dominated both the conventional bunch sprints that decided the outcomes of the race’s first two stages, Strong showed his trademark explosiveness on a twisty, punchy circuit around the famous French city.

The Kiwi was part of a four-rider group that almost caught late attacker Antoine L’Hote (DCT) approaching the line. However, Strong dominated the sprint for second, which, together with bonus seconds claimed during an earlier intermediate sprint, moved him up seven places from 10th overall.

“I think the final 80 kilometers or so today were full gas – it was fun racing and I enjoyed it a lot,” says Strong. “Kudos to Antoine, he was incredibly strong. When I’d heard he’d been out there for 15 kilometers or so, I thought for sure he would tire on the last lap, but he held on.

“I’m obviously super gutted to get second today – I won the sprint behind the breakaway yesterday as well, so two close calls this week, but I didn’t manage to get the win.

“It’s bittersweet as I came here really wanting to win the GC, and yesterday’s finish was the perfect finish for me. It’s gutting not to win that or even a stage, but I’m really happy with my shape.

“It was nice going into today’s stage with nothing to lose – I’m normally a patient racer and somebody who holds a bit back for the finish, but today I got to race my bike quite aggressively, and I had a lot of fun doing it.”

Sports Director Alex Cataford said: “It was a really aggressive stage today, with the race opening up on the final laps and a lot of attacks.

“Corbin raced very smart and had an amazing team around him. The guys set him up perfectly for the final laps so he could race from the front with the other favorites. He should be proud of his effort and the way he moved up on GC.

“Overall, it was a very strong week for the team. Two stage wins and an overall podium is something we can be pleased with, but more than that, the guys raced incredibly well together and the teamwork was at a top level.”

Stage 3 map & profile

Uno-X Mobility's Alexander Kamp wins stage three and becomes the new GC leader.

Bill & Carol McGann's book The Story of the Tour de France, Vol 1: 1903 - 1975 is available in print, Kindle eBook & audiobook versions. To get your copy, just click on the Amazon link on the right.

Weather at the finish city of Sainte-Suzanne-et-Chammes at 2:40 PM, local time: 26C (78C), sunchine and clouds mixed, with the wind from the northwest at 24 km/hr (15 mph). There is a 7% chance of rain.

The race: Louis Sutton (Euskaltel-Euskadi) did not start.

Here's the report from stage three second-place Gabriele Bessega's Team Polti-VisitMalta:

He had said it in the preview of the Région Pays de la Loire: “I felt my condition improving race after race, now I’m ready and motivated to contribute to strong results”.

Said and done! On the eve of the explosive finale in Le Mans, today Gabriele Bessega finished 2nd in the queen stage of the French race. He did so at the end of a day where Polti VisitMalta once again delivered a strong team performance: compact in the peloton while chasing the day’s breakaway, present with Mirco Maestri in a nine-rider counterattack between 30 and 20 kilometers to go; and finally with Bessega joining a six-man move that formed with 13 kilometers to go on the last climb.

On the finish at a 5% gradient, the 22-year-old from Samarate was beaten only by the winner Kamp (Uno-X) thus securing his first podium in his debut Professional season. He now also sits 2nd overall, just 2 seconds behind Kamp, and wears the white jersey as best young rider.

The peloton early in the stage.

Gabriele Bessega: “I’m very happy to confirm the positive feelings from before the race and to repay the squad’s work, on the circuit I held on and forced my way into the decisive move. Let’s keep it going!”

Sports director Jesús Hernández: “We knew it would be difficult to control the situation and that attacks would come. We started focused to make sure we didn’t miss any move, and the guys executed this mindset perfectly. It’s even more rewarding to see our younger athletes already so mature. Further proof of that is Dario Igor Belletta’s 3rd place behind Bessega and L’Hote (Decathlon) in the youth classification.”

Weather at the finish at Les Sables-d'Olonne at 2:35 PM, local time: 22C (69F), sunny, with the wind from the west at 11 km/hr (7 mph). There is just a 2% chance of rain.

The race: Here's the report from stage winner & GC leader Ethan Vernon's NSN Cycling Team.

Ethan Vernon claimed back-to-back victories for the fourth time in his career on Wednesday as he doubled up at Region Pays de la Loire in France to extend his lead on GC.

Vernon‘s victory in today’s second stage felt similar to his triumph in Vertou on Tuesday, as the British rider produced an emphatic sprint in Les Sables-d’Olonne at the end of a stage during which he and his NSN teammates were again put under pressure by the home teams.

The 25-year-old last took consecutive victories in a race at the Tour de Guangxi in October 2024, and this latest back-to-back sees him increase his gap over his nearest rival on GC – Erlend Blikra (UXM), who came second once again – to eight seconds.

Sports Director Alex Cataford said:
“Another strong showing from the team today. The final 5km was very tricky, so it was essential to have our lead-out for Corbin and Ethan dialled. The guys executed it really well, and Ethan once again showed he is the best sprinter here, taking the win.

"Corbin again finished strongly just behind, and tomorrow we will focus on his GC ambitions.”

Already a winner in the Tour Down Under and Volta a Catalunya, the team’s home race, this year, Vernon delivered another controlled and authoritative performance, powering to victory with a dominant 150-metre sprint to take the early GC lead in the French ProSeries race. Behind, teammate Corbin Strong placed sixth.

The stage was raced at a relentless pace from the start, with an average speed of 47.5 km/h underlining the intensity of the day. An early breakaway forced the team to take responsibility in the peloton, committing fully to bring the gap back under control.

That work paid off in the finale. The breakaway was reeled in at the right moment, setting up a perfect scenario for Vernon. Delivered into position by a strong collective effort, he launched his sprint inside the final 150 metres and powered clear to take a convincing win in Vertou.

It's time to go racing in France. Stage one gets its official start.

Vernon said:
“It was a super tough race. I’ve won a couple of WorldTour races this year, but those stages were much more controlled. I think you can expect an aggressive race when you come to these French races – Cofidis and some other teams were trying to make it an aggressive race.

"They chucked a lot at us, but we responded well. We had to control a lot, and we had to use all our guys, but the guys brought it back for a bunch sprint. Chapeau to them, as we were tested today.”

Vernon added:
“For us, it was important to find a race where the guys who are going to the Giro could come together and race together. It fitted perfectly in our calendar, and we could send a super strong team here. I asked to come here, and the team supported the idea. Corbin, Dion, and I all have different ambitions and race programmes, but this was the one that worked for everyone. The preparation and chemistry for the Giro start here for us.

"I’m really happy with how the season is going. I always know that, when my confidence starts to grow, it produces better results. I think the UAE Tour is the only race I’ve been to this year where I didn’t win a stage. And, as a team, we’ve stepped up across the board this year. I think we’ve got seven wins already, we’re in a good place, and the morale within the team is growing.”

Sports Director Alex Cataford said:
“The team rode very strongly today, taking control of the race and making sure it came back together for a sprint to the line. Ethan showed once again that he is one of the sprinters to beat in 2026, taking his third win of the year in commanding fashion.

"Corbin was also very present throughout the day and remains a key focus for us in the general classification here at the race.”

Vernon’s victory sees him take the first leader’s jersey of the race, while Strong’s sixth place capped off a strong collective performance from the team on stage one.
