Guys, Ben won. Ben won. Today and tomorrow are stages that we’re on. It’s not battery saving mode and we’re on. Right. Congratulations to every one of you. What an amazing team effort. Super Boys. We’re very well aware that on a stage like this, if this fight for a breakaway goes on and on and on and on, Let them go. Let them go. And then a breakaway establishes itself late in the race with tired people. It’s very easy for Vanderpool to win again cuz we still don’t want to sprint against him. It’s okay to lose, but it’s not okay to fail, right? The yellow jersey is back on your shoulders for only one second. I felt um I didn’t have my best day and uh yeah at the end uh I was fighting against myself. It’s uh really nice to go in yellow to this special place for me. Matthew Vanderpool points to the sky. He remembers his granddad Pulidor. Losing is something we’re going to have to do over and over again as we try to win the stage. I would have loved to have a bit more than 1 second, but it’s up to us to to ride faster if you want the jersey. Failing is not doing what you want to do the way you want to do it, right? So, whatever the however the race could go, we know what our race is, and that’s the most important thing. Stage seven heads to Britany, finishing with a double ascent of the Mur Dean. A brutal test where Vanderpool triumphed in 2021. Can Pagatcha strike back or will the wall crown another champion? And we got the confirmation from the front car. The start will be hectic. attack. It’s a good wake up to all of you guys. That’s why in the meeting we always said to not start at the back of the bunch. Van Art and Maro Schmidt were pushing to form an early breakaway, but it wasn’t long until that was shut down emphatically as the teams at the Pelaton reeled them back in around 50 km per hour. The pace remained relentless. It’s another exhausting stage for everyone. A fantastic 5 did finally kick and produce a meaningful attack, but nothing yet to worry. The Pelaton controlled by UAE and Alperson. I just and they go from the stage. Breton fans with their chance to get caught up in tour fever as the five escapes kicked on. 2018 champion Gant Thomas amongst the group unable to push past the twominute barrier. I’m going to try and keep calm for now in this move, Alex. Okay. It’s not on how much you guys push. It’s on what happens behind. After Jonathan Milan extended his points jersey lead at the intermediate sprint, UAE and Alpason back on the front with Neils Pulit powering the Pelaton. The pace too much for Marco Hower, the Tudtor rider. The first escapade to crack with 40 km to go. 1 minute to go. 1 minute to the front four now. Haler drop. Haler drop. Team of Visma Lisa bike on the front as always. Bordan is the rider who jumps. Garcia, even Garcia Cortina, a little bit more of an injection of pace. Garant Thomas is suffering at the back. One lap of racing to go now. One more climb of the M de Britan to decide who wins today’s stage. Costu is the first to the finish line. There’s Ben Healey, yesterday’s stage winner. Crash crashing the pelaton. Loads of riders are down. That was a huge crash. Ben Healey coming back now with the team of EF trying to bring him back into the game. Not been worried. He know he will be in yellow tonight. Now they’ve got some more road to play with. We’re under the barrier line with 1,000 m to go and it gets a lot easier at this point. So it is Remco a Napole Wangard Pagatcha Vorcalan Jorgensson Narve also in their Oscar on Lee Remco a Napole is dicing a little bit dances out the saddle narves is moving up to try and put this race in the hands of Tad Paga 800 m of racing to go. Nve start remco slots in vengerard wants to ruin the morale of paga jorgensson gets ready on is there felix gal it’s going to be a bunch sprint of the climbers nice it’s a very interesting how that pagar didn’t go on the wheel of narvades but preferred to sit behind the Olympic champion 600 m to go it’s a little bit flatter now wind is coming from the right hand side that’s why they’re choosing the barrier side Nves gets ready for the sprint. Paga looks around. He seems a little bit worried about what’s going on behind. Felix Gar is there. Laurance is coming back. Now we’re on to the flat section. Pagatcha has the best sprint in this group, but you just never know. He wants to win. He wants his hands in the air at the top of this climb. He said it this morning. He keeps checking. Fenard checks as well. Jorgensson is there. Oh, how many times has Tatty Pagatcha looked over his shoulder. He’s just waiting for the strike. Here he goes now. This is the sprint. Pagatcha starts. Wengerard is going to go with him. But Pagatcha is just powering away. Wengerard though is right in the wheel. Yonas Wengerard Taga, but it’s the world champion on the M de Britan ahead of Yonas Wengerard. International. Thank you. Oh yeah. I’m I mean I’m super happy with the win today. Unfortunate Zo crashed and uh I hope he’s okay. If he’s not okay, then uh this this victory is for him. Pagatcha’s 19th tour stage win. Only six riders in history have won more. Vinegar limited losses to four bonus seconds and a first ever grand tour podium for Oscar. Only the slow superstar firmly back in control of the yellow jersey. Vanderpole plummets to fifth. Evanapole the only rider within a minute of leader Pagachar. A further consequence of the world champions win. The green jersey is also his. Milan will hope to win it back tomorrow. Tim Valin’s polka dots mean UAE hold three of the four jerseys. The Belgian a point clear of Pagachar. Remco Evanapole in white. Vlan close behind. The two best youngsters second and third overall after another brutal day. We will check. Uh we hope is nothing broken because of course no is a very important rider for us.
