'Dale Posted July 17, 2016 Share Voeckler reaches the summit first and so takes maximum points in the KOM competition. Majka just behind and so scores more points. He is closing in on leader De Gendt (Lotto Soudal) who failed to get into the break today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Dale Posted July 17, 2016 Share It’s a funny day, its so hard but there’s a descent and then 8km of flat roads to the finish. We’ll have to see what happens and try to predict what happens. We’ll sit tight and see what happens. I think me and Tejay can work together but today is all about the legs, its such a hard stage today.” Porte, Team BMC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
