Mollema & amp.; Gesink
Bauke Mollema was ninth best Dutchman. Trek rider Robert Gesink made as part of a group of favorites 10 seconds behind Vuillermoz crossed the line. The former teammates pushed both in the rankings.
Vuillermoz, who earlier in the Tour already finished third in the stage to the Wall of Huy, is not normally a man for the classification. He was already nearly six minutes of Froome.

Three riders knew to stay ahead, but failed to up the volume stay out of the clutches of the peloton. At 8 kilometers of the line were Ytting Lars Bak, Michal Golas Bartosz Huzarski and arrested.
