Arensman saves Ineos Grenadiers’ Tour de France with mountain breakaway victory

Thymen Arensman saved Ineos Grenadiers’ Tour de France, the Dutchman taking a stunning solo win at Superbagnères on Saturday.

Arensman attacked the day’s breakaway just short of the top of the day’s final climb, the Col de Peyresourde, with 36 of the day’s 182.6km to go. The Dutchman quickly built a lead, taking more than two minutes onto the bottom of the Superbagnères climb, the peloton a minute further down.
