Stage 11 was a sprinters’ stage, with a doomed breakaway and a massed peloton.

Dylan Groenewegen was well-placed for the sprint, but had to settle for second as Jasper Philipsen came round him.

Philipsen’s celebration was to put four fingers in the air, representing four stage wins at this year’s Tour. It reminded me of Peter Kay’s literal actions and gestures when singing pop songs.

The Breakaway

The breakaway consisted of Andrey Amamdor, Matis Louvel and Daniel Oss. Oss was the last survivor, but was caught with 13.6km to go.
