Today’s stage: Dumoulin finishes 3min 22sec behind Froome. There are some sums to be done before we know how much Froome’s lead will be tomorrow. He won bonus seconds for finishing today’s stage in first place.
Challenging Miguel Ángel López for the white jersey, Richard Carapaz nicks the six bonus seconds by coming second and is followed over the line by Pinot and then Lopez. Having done all the work on the chase, Tom Dumoulin gets no bonus seconds whatsoever. Chris Froome will begin tomorrow’s penultimate stage in the pink after one of the great cycling performances. That was an epic stage.
