Peter SAGAN (SVK/BORA - HANSGROHE) puts his shoulder into Wout VAN AERT (BEL/JUMBO - VISMA) as he ran out of road on the right hand side. He was relegated for this... a costly penalty in his bid for his 8th Green Jersey | share this photo |
 |
Did Sagan misjudge his space? Was he looking to create space? Did Van Aert move off his line too much? Or is Sagan trying to avoid the selfie sticks? | share this photo |

“My closest opponent Sam Bennett is one of my best friends. It is always business when it comes down to sprinting. But we are happy for eachother when we win. I was very happy for him yesterday getting his first win. You saw how much it meant for him and I know how hard he worked for it.” said Caleb EWAN (AUS/LOTTO SOUDAL) | share this photo |

Your Stage 11 winner, Caleb EWAN (AUS/LOTTO SOUDAL): “It was such a crazy finish. I was in the front with 1.5km to go and dropped back because of the head wind. After my first stage win I knew I had to keep calm and wait for the right time and the gap to open. That happened quite late to the finish. I did a big throw on the line and didn’t know if I won. I had a real desire to win today. After yesterday I was disappointed and I am so happy to repay my teammates with the win.” | share this photo |
