Tour de France Stage 8 LIVE

Semur en Auxois – Colombey Les Deux Églises 183.4 km

After a frenetic start we settle into a very “middle” middle week. Sprint opportunities like today and breakaway opportunities galore. Between today and next Saturday there’s only tomorrow’s nervous gravel stage that will bother the GC riders (on paper).

Estimated finish time: 17:20-17:45 CEST

Church goer of the Day: Arnaud De Lie

Honestly I really think it’s Philipsen bet at some point it just gets silly picking his name until he finally wins. Maybe this way it will loosen up for him. Sadly the Green Jersey race got less interesting as Mads Pedersen had to retire and DNS the stage with injuries from his crash getting worse instead of better.
