STATISTIC OF THE DAY: 27 SECONDS
With three riders within 27 seconds, there has never been a tighter top three after 17 stages on the Tour de France.
QUOTE OF THE DAY: “I’ve got nothing to regret. I’m true to my philosophy: attack, shake things up. Uran did not really attack and he sprints for time bonuses in the end. That’s it.” - A frustrated Romain Bardet after being beaten to the line by Rigoberto Uran.
FACT OF THE DAY: Australian Michael Matthews has the green jersey for the points classification virtually wrapped up after previous leader Marcel Kittel abandoned the race following an early crash.
