The 2023 Tour de France experienced a rather bumpy stage this Saturday, July 15, after a sharp fall occurred in the first kilometers. However, the mountain made a comeback and there were several big changes to the general classification.

The man from Granada completed a masterful performance in Morzine, in which he captured the first two overall with nine kilometers to go, before he left alone to conquer the third Spanish victory in the 110th edition of the Tour, after Pello Bilbao (Bahrain – Victorious) reigned in the tenth fraction and Ion Izagirre (Cofidis) in the twelfth.

Egan Bernal (Ineos Grenadiers), for his part, had a good presentation during the day and dressed as a gregarious man again, helping the leader of his squad to reach the final part of the stage with good legs and get on the podium of the gala round

Likewise, the Zipaquireño cyclist together with the British team consolidated their first place in the team classification. In addition, he continues to be the best Colombian rider in the race and partially ranks 24th in the individual overall.

This Sunday will take place stage 15 of the grande boucle between Les Gets Portes Du Soleil and Saint Gervais Mont Blanc. The day will have a distance of 179 kilometers and will have five high mountain passes.
