Ten 3rd category climbs all lined up and ready for Remco.

Today’s stage produced no positional changes to the podium Classifications.

The only Classification still looking undecided is the Green Jersey.
In yesterday’s stage Kaden Groves was caught in a crash as they approached the finish line so the only points he won were 17 coming second in the sprint prime earlier in the race.
Today, Remco Evenepoel won a total of 34 points which brings his tally within 20 points of winning the Green Jersey, as well as the Polka Dot.
Kaden has the advantage to keep the Green Jersey tomorrow, it’s probable Remco won’t contest it but it is a possibility.

A great final stage to a great race. Enjoyed it from start to finish. So much going on. So much great racing.

Well, it almost turned out very differently. If Kaden had been dropped from the breakaway, and Remco had won the small-bunch sprint, he’d have both green and blue.
