Tour de France: Stage 17

Five years after starting cycling at the age of 22, former ski jumper Primoz Roglic became the first Slovenian to win a Tour de France stage as he soloed to victory in Serre-Chevalier after riding Alberto Contador off his wheel with 6.5km left on the ascent to the col du Galibier. Chris Froome retained the overall lead but Fabio Aru lost his second place to Rigoberto Uran.

173 riders started stage 17 at La Mûre and after 20km, there was a crash involving polka dot jersey holder Warren Barguil (Sunweb) and green jersey holder Marcel Kittel (Quick-Step Floors) among others. While Barguil went on to defend his jersey, Kittel’s injuries saw him abandon the race later.

A 33-man breakaway group was formed at the same time with Cyril Gautier and Mathias Frank (AG2R-La Mondiale), Jonathan Castroviejo and Jesus Herrada (Movistar), Michael Gogl, Jarlinson Pantano and Bauke Mollema (Trek-Segafredo), Amaël Moinard, Nicolas Roche and Danilo Wyss (BMC), Darwin Atapuma and Ben Swift (UAE), Rudy Molard (FDJ), Esteban Chaves (Orica-Scott), Serge Pauwels (Dimension Data), Pawel Poljanski (Bora-Hansgrohe), Robert Kiserlovski (Katusha-Alpecin), Thomas De Gendt and Tony Gallopin (Lotto-Soudal), Michael Matthews, Simon Geschke and Albert Timmer (Sunweb), Nicolas Edet and Dani Navarro (Cofidis), Primoz Roglic (LottoNL-Jumbo), Thomas Voeckler and Sylvain Chavanel (Direct Energie), Alberto Bettiol and Dylan van Baarle (Cannondale-Drapac), Ondrej Cink (Bahrain-Merida), Marco Minnaard (Wanty-Groupe Gobert), Brice Feillu and Pierre-Luc Périchon (Fortuneo-Oscaro).

Defending Barguil’s position in the King of the Mountains, Matthews outsprinted De Gendt atop the col d’Ornon (cat. 2, km 30) and the duo forged on so Matthews also collected 20 points at the intermediate sprint to reduce his deficit to Kittel to only nine points prior to Kittel calling it a day halfway throught the stage.

De Gendt and Matthews also climbed to col de la Croix-de-Fer in the lead until they got caught by Navarro but all eyes were on Alberto Contador (Trek-Segafredo) who attacked from the yellow jersey group, followed by Nairo Quintana (Movistar) who couldn’t hold his pace.

Contador bridged a gap of four minutes to come across to his team-mates Mollema and Pantano. De Gendt and Navarro stayed away until 89km to go, after which Trek-Segafredo strongly led the break up the col du Télégraphe and the col du Galibier, the highest peak of the Tour. When Mollema pulled over after a long long spell on the front of the break, Roglic was first to attack at the exit of Valloire with 45km to go meanwhile the yellow jersey group led by Team Sky was 3.30 adrift.

Contador and Pauwels went with Roglic and then Atapuma and Frank rejoined them 11km before the summit. With 6.5km remaining on the ascent, Roglic attacked again and it was the decisive move. But the attacks were coming thick and fast in the yellow jersey group.

Dan Martin (Quick-Step Floors) and Romain Bardet (AG2R-La Mondiale) successively attacked over and over and this saw Fabio Aru (Astana) struggling and eventually losing contact. Winning the sprint for second place behind Roglic in Serre-Chevalier, Rigoberto Uran (Cannondale-Drapac) moved into second overall in the same time as Bardet while Aru dropped to fourth with a deficit of 53 seconds.

Roglic who hails from Strahovlje in the Slovenian mountains was famous for an horrific crash as a ski jumper in Planeca in 2007. As a neo pro, he won the big time trial of the Giro d’Italia in the Chianti area last year. He has now gone on to deliver in the French Alps the 49th stage victory at the Tour de France for the LottoNL-Jumbo team that is the second longest serving after Movistar since they have taken part in the race since 1984 as Kwantum-Hallen and been known as Rabobank for many years.

Reactions

Primoz Roglic: “This is unbelievable, incredible,” Roglic said. “Winning this stage, over the Galibier… I have no words for it. At this moment, I do not realise what I have just achieved. That will come later and maybe then I will realise what a big win this is.  The plan was to attack on the Galibier and go full-gas in the descent. I made plans for this stage earlier on. It is extra special that my girlfriend and my family are here today. Everywhere, I saw Slovenian flags today. It was amazing.”

“Somehow it feels nice to become the first Slovenian stage winner of the Tour de France. But it’s also crazy that I’m the man who can make some cycling history for Slovenia as I was not a cyclist until I turned 22. I was probably dreaming of winning a Tour de France stage and that’s why I started cycling but dreaming is one thing, the reality is another one. Just to participate to the Tour de France was something beautiful for me. To realize that I have the abilities to win a stage is unbelievable. The crucial moment of the race today was when I rode away from the front group. It was a great feeling.”

Chris Froome:  “I was surprised about Fabio Aru dropping today. I expected him to attack. But in a Grand Tour, it’s the third week that really tests everyone. Personally, I felt a lot better than in the Pyrenees one week ago, hopefully same legs tomorrow. My team was also brilliant under pressure. I rode behind Dan Martin because I didn’t want to get into the same situation as last week when some GC riders went up the road and nobody wanted to chase. My legs felt good so why not keep everyone in check. That would be incredible if Mikel Landa could finish on the podium as well. He showed today how strong he was in the Galibier. Tomorrow up the Izoard, it’ll be just about the legs.”

Dan Martin: “I attacked because I wanted to test my rivals. I didn’t go too deep, but this doesn’t mean I wasn’t tired. Actually, everybody’s tired 17 days into the race, so this is turning more into a mental battle. I’m glad we left this stage behind and I got to jump one place in the GC”, said Dan, who also explained why he lost time on the descent. “Contador was in front of me and missed a corner, leaving a gap to the others, so that was that. It’s already in the past and now my focus is on the Col d’Izoard, tomorrow. The war of attrition will continue there and Disco Dan is ready to dance!”

Marcel Kittel: “I am very disappointed and I don’t know how to describe my feelings at the moment. To go home with five stage victories is great, but to go home because of a crash and before hitting Paris is a major disappointment”, said Marcel, who was leading the green jersey classification at the time he had to wave goodbye to the race.

“I couldn’t do anything to avoid that crash and lost some skin on my shoulder, back, elbow and hip, which are a bit swollen. I tried to carry on, but pedaling was just painful, especially as in the last couple of days I had to fight with stomach problems and a cold. Now I will take some time to recover before returning to racing and I’m confident the joy of winning five stages at the Tour de France will help me overcome these difficult moments”, concluded Kittel, the most successful rider of the season in terms of victories, with 14 (seven of which came in the World Tour) to his name.

Michael Matthews (Green jersey):“I hope Marcel [Kittel] is fine. I heard he crashed when I was already in the breakaway. It’s not nice to get the green jersey in those circumstances but I’ve also fought a lot for having it. I won’t let it go. And now the Champs-Elysées stage is much more open as Marcel was the hot favorite.”

Warren Barguil: “When I crashed at the beginning of the race, I’ve been scared that all I built over those three weeks of racing suddenly collapsed. Everything had gone well for me in this Tour de France until that crash. But I quickly realized that only my bike was damaged. The ascent to the Galibier was very fast but I knew the climb and I knew where to attack to go and grab some KOM points. Then on the podium I heard that I was now in the top 10 overall, I was shocked. At the end of the day, it’s another good day for me and the team.”

Simon Yates: “It was a very difficult day, I didn’t have the best day and lost some time there in the final,” Yates explained. “I didn’t really blow up mentally, I think I limited my losses ok. There was quite a lot of wind about and I got shelled off the group towards the end of the final climb. I really fought a lot to stay there as I knew there was still a long way to the finish but I couldn’t do anymore.”

“I saw the same thing with George Bennett the other day. He lost contact and eventually lost four minutes so I did well limit my losses. Tomorrow I’ll do the best I can.”

Romain Bardet:  “I was racing to win. I did my maximum on the Galibier, and was close to making the difference. I missed some allies at one point, but I do not regret it.You have to be patient and consistent in the Tour de France. With 25 kilometers of downhill with a headwind, it was more difficult to distance Froome.Tomorrow we have a summit finish at an important place for cycling (Izoard), and it will be important to be at least as strong as today.”

Alberto Contador: “I couldn’t win, that was the objective, but this is sport,” said Contador, obviously disappointed. “Today there were too many kilometers for me to overcome alone. If I had taken the first breakaway, I would have had no problems, but to take the break at kilometer 70 made me lose many options.”

“It was a tremendous effort on Croix de Fer with the break at five minutes; I had to pedal very strong,” continued Contador. “I told Nairo to come, but he couldn’t, and the on the Galibier, with so many attacks, I paid for it.”

“I had to come from behind on Croix de Fer, and it was a tremendous effort, over 24kms of climbing. It’s like when you are training, and you do a mountain à bloc, and then you pay for it for the rest of the day,” Contador explained. “Here has been the same at the last mountain. I tried to save energy, but there were many attacks, and although I could top the final climb with the favorites group, I couldn’t fight for the victory. It’s a pity, because there are not many opportunities left. I feel well, and I am eager, but this Tour has been very problematic for me.”

Fabio Aru: “This is the race, and such days just happen. Maybe, it was not my best day in the Tour de France, but that’s result for today. I fought until the very last meters, I gave my all to minimize loses. Finally, I was able to lose not too much time. Anyway, I don’t see a big drama in today’s stage. The race ends in Paris. Tomorrow we will have another very difficult stage with a summit final. I will try to recover well today, to come back in the game tomorrow”.

Nairo Quintana: “It was another day fighting, another day suffering. A tough end in the Galibier, yet we were able to finish in one piece. I don’t have any legs, so our only goal until the end will be just finishing the race, staying on course until Paris. Another tough day is coming tomorrow.”
