Alexandre Geniez (TotalEnergies), leader of the general classification since his victory in the inaugural time trial, was dethroned on Tuesday in Ruvabu, where Jhonatan Restrepo won. The Colombian from the Italian formation Drone Hopper-Androni Giocattoli, who started in the right breakaway, settled a group of seven riders in the sprint, including the Breton Axel Laurance (B&B Hotels-KTM), second in the stage like the day before.
At the end of this very lively day, the twenty-year-old Frenchman is now second overall, just three seconds behind Restrepo, who now has six successes in the Rwandan event, a record.
