The race: 180 riders started stage two at 1:22PM. There was one non-starter among yesterdays's finishers, Marc Soler (Movistar), who broke his elbows in yesterday's crash-marred stage.
The peloton awaits the signal to start. The category leaders, from left: Tadej Pogacar (white jersey, best young rider), Julian Alaphilippe (yellow jersey, GC leader), Michael Matthews (green jersey for points leader. Alaphilippe is the points leader, so second-place Matthews wears it.) & Ide Schelling (polka-dot jersey for King of the Mountains).
Here's the stage two summary from the race organizer:
Mathieu van der Poel came up with a masterpiece at the top of Mûr-de-Bretagne. He rode for the time bonus at the first passage before winning stage 2 solo to take the yellow jersey that his grandfather Raymond Poulidor never had in his prestigious career.
Six riders in the lead
180 riders took the start of stage 2 in Perros-Guirec at 13.22. One non-starter: Marc Soler (Movistar). Loïc Vliegen (Intermarché-Wanty Gobert) was the first attacker but after the reaction of the peloton, Anthony Perez (Cofidis) entered in action for the second straight day. Edward Theuns (Trek-Segafredo), Simon Clarke (Qhubeka-Nexthash) and Jonas Koch (Intermarché-Wanty Gobert) came in help and a six-man front group was formed at km 18 with polka dot jersey holder Ide Schelling (Bora-Hansgrohe) who counter-attacked three times and Jérémy Cabot (TotalEnergies). They got a maximum lead of 4’ at km 40.5. Tim Declercq set the pace of the peloton for Deceuninck-Quick Step. The fight was on for the King of the Mountains competition. Perez bettered Schelling at côte de Sainte-Barbe (km 72) to take the virtual lead of the KOM once again. The Dutchman took his revenge in the côte de Pordic (km 103).
Theuns the most combative of the day
Perez and Schelling neutralised each other before the hill of Saint-Brieuc where Theuns attacked by himself. The Belgian crested in first place before Cabot came across to him in the middle of the huge crowd in the prefecture of the Côtes d’Armor department. Koch remained in between while Perez, Schelling and Clarke – who slipped in a downhill – were brought back by the pack. Cabot and Theuns approached the last 30km with an advantage of 1’30’’. Theuns went solo 21km before the finish as the peloton was only 25’’ behind. He took the 1 KOM point up for grabs at the côte du village de Mûr-de-Bretagne and it was all together with 18km to go.
Two finishes for MVDP
Van der Poel attacked at the foot of the first ascent to Mûr-de-Bretagne 17km before the end. It enabled him to take 8’’ bonus on the first passage while Tadej Pogacar (5’’), Primoz Roglic (2’’) and Julian Alaphilippe crossed the line in that order. Approximately 80 riders were reunited for the last lap, led by Ineos Grenadiers. Richie Porte was still at the helm of the reduced group with 1.2km to go when Nairo Quintana sped up for a little while. Italian champion Sonny Colbrelli attacked 900 metres before the line and was soon countered by van der Poel. No one managed to catch the Dutchman who won with an advantage of 6’’ over the Slovenian duo formed of Pogacar and Roglic, again in that order. Fifth at 8’’, Alaphilippe lost the Maillot Jaune to van der Poel.

Stage 2 photos by Fotoreporter Sirotti:
Opening ceremonies. Mathieu van der Poel's Alpecin-Fenix team is presented.
And here's race leader Julian Alaphilippe's Deceuninck-Quick Step team.
King of the Mountains Ide Schelling shows off his dots.
EF Education-Nippo and Trek-Segafredo wait while the teams are presented.

Mathieu van der Poel has made good his escape.
Letting Mathieu van der Poel get away is risky business
Mathieu van der Poel got away and stayed away.
The best of the rest came in a few seconds later. Julian Alaphilippe (shown in his last moments in the Maillot Jaune) was a few second late for his appointment with the Yellow Jersey.
Chris Froome & Rick Zabel finished 11min 21sec after van der Poel.
Mathieu van der Pol just after the stage finish.
Mathieu van der Poel will start stage three in yellow.
