For the final climb?

That's my take. It's super steep and the GC contenders should all be together at that point.

Eulalio has returned to the field with some help from Commissaire 1 with a barrage.

Lidl-Trek and Visma at the front pulling hard. The gap is down to 30s. 25km to go.

 

[stompandgo]

The break is caught. A solo rider is dangling off the front. Lidl, Visma, NSN driving the front. 20km to go. Where is Ganna?

 

[stompandgo]

The climb is about to start. INEOS, Unibet, Lidl, driving. Now on the climb.

Eulalio attacks and is clear. Kuss pacing Jonas. Narvaez and Milan still near the front.

Jonas attacks 200m from the summit and takes the KOM. He is staying in the top three. About a dozen riders have opened a gap of 10 seconds. Milan, Narvaez, and Magnier in the field. Bernal, Gall, and Hindley next to Jonas.

Eulalio attacks to bridge. Rain at the finish. Gap at 15s. 4.5km to go. Eulalio rides through the leaders to take the lead with another rider. Gap to 7s.

 

[stompandgo]

2km to go, it's going to be a field sprint. Milan stuck to Magnier's wheel.

Magnier with the win after Milan checked up behind Magnier's last leadout man. Absolutely perfect execution. Magnier 3 wins, Milan zero.
