Cort Nielsen wins fight upset Tour stage, Pogacar holds yellow
Cort Nielsen won in a nail-gnawing run finish from day’s breakaway to guarantee his subsequent profession stage win on the Tour after 2018.
The race was halted for around 10 minutes after about six environment activists attempted to impede the riders 36 kilometers from the completion .
They were pulled off the street by police and a senior race coordinator before the race continued.
Australian Nick Schultz required second and Spain’s Luis Leon Sanchez was third.
Slovenia’s two times reigning champ Tadej Pogacar, who has lost two partners after they left the race following positive COVID-19 tests starting from the beginning in Denmark, held the general chief’s yellow shirt [L1N2YT0OE].
Wednesday’s eleventh stage is a merciless 151.7-km mountain journey from Albertville to the Col du Granon.
A 25-man breakaway came to fruition after a very quick beginning, including previous stage champs Cort Nielsen, Sanchez, Ion Izaguirre, Edvald Boasson Hagen, Philippe Gilbert, Simon Clark, Pierre Rolland and Lennard Kaemna.
Sanchez took his action exactly six kilometers from the line yet was gotten by Matteo Jorgenson, Schultz and Dylan van Baarle.
As the four acted slyly in the last straight, Cort Nielsen flooded from the back and outsprinted Schultz for a near tie triumph.
Germany’s Kaemna, who was in the main gathering the entire day, verged on grabbing the general lead and presently sits in runner up, 11 seconds behind Pogacar after the bundle went too far eight minutes and 25 seconds off the speed.
Dane Jonas Vingegaard, second by and large last year, slipped to third, 39 seconds behind the pioneer.
