It took getting over the HC climb of the Col de Croix de Fer and then chasing down the breakaway, but Mads Pedersen (Lidl-Trek) was there to sprint for maximum points at the intermediate sprint in Saint Julien Mont Denis. As he wound up his sprint he looked back at Tobias Johannessen (Uno X-Mobility) as if daring him to dare to steal a single point from him. With this sprint, he sealed up the race for the Maillot Vert. All he need do is finish this stage and the final stage in Paris and he will have one the sprinter's jersey in all three Grand Tours. On Johannessen's wheel are Matteo Jorgenson (Visma-Lease a Bike) and his teammate Bruno Armirail clearly having a plan for the day. Another in this leading group was Thymen Arensman (Netcompany-Ineos) hoping to have an even better stage than yesterday. Today is the true final stage of the Tour, although the new circuit in Paris does mean there will be more than just a sprint on the Champs Elysees.
