Delle risposte, la tappona tappina ce le ha date: Nairo Quintana sa ancora come si fa ad attaccare, Romain Bardet non è all'altezza degli avversari, Dumouloin e Roglic sono i maggiori indiziati per salire sul podio di Parigi ma soprattutto il Tour de France ha un nuovo padrone legittimato: Geraint Thomas.

La tappa più breve di questo Tour - 65 km dei quli 38,3 in salita - ha visto il trionfo di Nairo Quintana (la sua seconda personale sulle strade del Tour) che è scattato sull'ultima salita andando a raggiungere Tanel Kangert, splendido e coraggioso attaccante di giornata, per andare a cogliere un grande successo. Dietro di lui Daniel Martin, che non è riuscito a tenergli la ruota né a rimontare, e poi Geraint Thomas, che ha risposto alla grande agli attacchi di Roglic e Dumoulin e si è concesso il lusso di conquistare anche 4 secondi di abbuono.

Chris Froome è andato in difficoltà poco prima del triangolo rosso dell'ultimo chilometro, è stato atteso da un grande Egan Bernal ma ha pagato quasi un minuto.

In difficoltà Bardet, anche Landa ha pagato nel finale, staccati tutti gli altri come nei giorni scorsi del resto. E Parigi per Thomas è sempre più vicina... Miglior italiano di giorna, il più vecchio del Tour, Franco Pellizotti che, dopo essere stato all'attacco è giunto 22° a poco più di sei minuti dal vincitore.
