One of these Four? TdF25-98
With forty-five kilometers yet to race, it was beginning to look like the break from the breakaway would be the ones to fight it out for the stage victory when they reach Carcassonne. There are four more guys behind this quartet of Victor Campenaerts (Visma-Lease a Bike), Michael Storer (Tudor Pro Cycling), Quinn Simmons (Lidl-Trek) and Tim Wellens (UAE Team Emirates). They do have nineteen seconds on those chasers, with the rest of the early break strewn over the course as much as four minutes behind. Even further back is the peloton tooling along over six minutes later. I should note, there is an even bigger group of sprinters and other even further back then the peloton.
