Chris froome wins stage 10

Chris Froome wins stage 10

The Race: One could argue that the 2015 Tour de France really starts today, with a stage that finishes with an hors categorie ascent to La Pierre-Saint-Martin, the first time this year that has been a Tour summit finish. The stage has three category-four climbs to warm up the riders’ legs before they hit that finishing, crucial mountain.

Here’s how Le Tour described stage ten before it started:

“The second chapter of the 2015 Tour de France starts with the Pyrenees. All the favorites named as such at the Grand Départ in Utrecht are still in contention but instead of the “fabulous four”, a tag that Tejay van Garderen has commented as “irritating”, the race is now about the “Big Five”, like Africa's greatest animals – lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo and rhino.

“Chris Froome, who was expected by many to be in trouble in the crosswinds, on the cobblestones and in the lead up the two “murs” (Mur de Huy and Mûr de Bretagne), has not only emerged unscathed but he leads the Tour de France even before the first serious climb with an advantage of 12 seconds over Van Garderen, 1.03 over Alberto Contador, 1.59 over Nairo Quintana and 2.22 over Vincenzo Nibali. In that category, the defending champion is the biggest loser of the first chapter but in reality, he isn't very far down and his chances to contest the yellow jersey remain intact. A second race begins in Pau for someone like Thibaut Pinot, third overall last year and now 8.05 adrift. He wants to win a mountain stage and the polka dot jersey. Both goals are combined as uphill finishes like the newcoming site at La Pierre-Saint-Martin in the col du Soudet.

“It's not a big mountain stage yet but the finale is very demanding. It's the first opportunity for the dark horse contenders to emerge: Rigoberto Uran, Bauke Mollema, Robert Gesink, Andrew Talansky, Romain Bardet and Jean-Christophe Péraud. They're all looking for answers. Up and coming Alexis Vuillermoz has paved the way in Mûr de Bretagne for climbers to shine. Joaquim Rodriguez already has had his day of glory at the Mur de Huy but racing close to Spain, he's hungry for more, also for the polka dot jersey like Pinot."

One-hundred and eighty-three riders started the stage at 12:25 PM. There were two withdrawals since the finish of stage nine on Sunday: Ivan Basso, who was diagnosed with testicular cancer, and Astana rider Lars Boom, who has had a fever for a couple of days.

With fifty KOM points up for grabs at the day’s finishing climb, Daniel Teklehaimanot’s ownership of the polka-dot jersey would be in real jeopardy today.

The pack came out of the starting gate in high gear, averaging almost fifty kilometers an hour over the first 15 kilometers, with Pierrick Fédrigo (Bretagne-Séché Environnement) jumping away and barely hanging off the front. Cofidis rider Kenneth van Bilsen took off after Fédrigo, triggering no response from the peloton.

After another few kilometers the peloton seemed to relent in its chase. Forty kilometers into the stage the race’s average speed had dropped to 46 kilometers an hour. Van Bilsen was still chasing, about a half-minute behind Fédrigo, who had built a ten-minute lead over the pack. Van Bilsen’s relentless chase finally paid off about 46 kilometers into the stage when he caught the elusive Fédrigo. The pair were twelve minutes ahead of the Sky-led peloton after fifty kilometers of riding.

As the lead duo went up the first rated climb of the day, the Côte de Bougarber, they were almost fifteen minutes ahead of the field. Shortly thereafter, Movistar went to the front of the peloton with Alex Dowsett and Imanol Erviti doing the work. Immediately the gap started to come down.

In the feed zone, Warren Barguil (Giant-Alpecin) went down pretty hard. He got back on his bike, but was soon more than three minutes behind the fast-moving pack. With help from a teammate, he eventually regained contact, but he looked to have badly hurt his knee.

After passing over the second of the day’s rated climbs, the Côte de Vieilleségure, Van Bilsen and Fédrigo’s lead had been cut down to twelve minutes. Bretagne-Séché Environnement’s director Roger Tréhin thought the duo would need to have an eight-minute lead at the bottom of the final climb to have a chance of winning the stage, a lead that was about eleven minutes with fifty kilometers to go.

After the lead duo passed the intermediate sprint, André Greipel was the first peloton rider over the line, beating Mark Cavendish and Peter Sagan. That third place earned Greipel enough points to give him the green jersey at the end of the stage. With the hilltop finish, none of the sprinters will be anywhere near the front at the day’s end.

As the race passed the forty-kilometers-to-go mark, FDJ started helping with the chase, which strung out the pack and quickly brought the gap down to just seven minutes, well below Tréhin’s threshold for a stage win. And the news didn’t get better for Van Bilsen and Fédrigo. After the last category four climb, the Côte de Montory, with thirty kilometers of racing left, their lead dropped below six minutes. They weren’t going to be allowed to take this stage with so much at stake in points, time and prestige.

With just five kilometers before the final climb to the finish, the front pair had just three minutes. Chris Froome began moving up in the main peloton. Europcar started helping at the front as well. As the climb started to bite, both Peter Sagan and Daniel Teklehaimanot were quickly dropped. Many others were also quickly left behind. Up at the front, Fédrigo dispatched Van Bilsen to forge ahead alone with just a 45-second lead over a fast-moving, but sharply reduced peloton.

Today was going to make a difference.

With eleven kilometers to go, Fédrigo was caught. Then the first of the real attacks began with Robert Gesink trying his luck by riding off the front. He was quickly joined by Rafael Valls. Meanwhile Vincenzo Nibali, who is trying to do the Giro-Tour double, was in trouble and was quickly thirty seconds behind. As the lead group (behind Valls and Gesink), led by Sky, passed the ten-kilometers-to-go mark their group was down to just 21 riders.

Gesink was in no mood to be nice. He dropped Valls as he forged ahead, a half minute ahead of the chase group, now only fourteen riders with eight kilometers remaining. In that group were Froome, Contador, Valverde, van Garderen, Quintana, Porte, and Rolland. Valverde attacked, but was quickly brought back. Gesink was caught.

Then it happened. About seven kilometers before the finish, Alberto Contador was dropped, as was van Garderen.

Bam! Chris Froome knew this was the moment, and he dropped the hammer. Hard. Froome rode away from the others and was quickly alone and off the front. Nairo Quintana, the best of the rest today, gave chase, but he was no match for Froome, who was on song. With three kilometers remaining, Froome was almost a minute ahead of Quintana, who was being chased by Porte. Porte didn’t give up and finally made contact and then dropped the Movistar rider.

Froome won the stage, cementing his ownership of the Yellow Jersey. Porte followed in about a minute later, giving Sky the stage’s first two places. Quintana followed in a few seconds later while Gesink was fourth.
