Britain’s Ethan Hayter, who was pipped in the opening stage time trial by Pogacar, was part of a small early breakaway and looked set to take the overall lead after winning the final intermediate sprint for six bonus seconds.<\/p>\n
However, the 27-year-old fell behind and crossed the line 31 seconds off the lead, leaving him 13th in the general classification.<\/p>\n
After finishing third in the opening stage just eight days after his brother Finlay lost his life in a crash, Britain’s Josh Tarling came 125th.<\/p>\n
Monday takes the riders into the French Pyrenees with a mountain finish in Font Romeu near the Spanish border.<\/p>\n
