The tour de France to 2017: Demar opened the scoring French victories

Completed the fourth phase of the 104th version of the legendary French race.

Given the zero chance of separation, today was the lone brave man who decided to challenge the sprint teams. Guillaume van Keirsbilck from the “Wanty Groupe Gobert” at some point broke away from the main group in 13 minutes. However, with 17 km to go, the Belgian was forced to complete his solo escape.

Finishing the alignment was not without dam – Cavendish triggered the fall of several sprinters, which was used by the representative of the “FDJ” Arnaud Demar, ahead in a chaotic finish, Sagan and Kristoff. Demar had won the first stage on the Cycling race.

The fourth stage:

1. Demar Arnaud (France, FDJ) – 4:53,54
2. Peter Sagan (Slovakia And Bora-Hansgrohe)
3. Alexander Kristoff (Norway, Katusha-Alpecin)
4. Andre Greipel (Germany, Lotto Soudal)
5. Nasser Boinne (France, Cofidis)

Overall standings after the fourth stage:

1. Geraint Thomas (Great Britain, Sky) – 14.54,25
2. Peter Sagan (Slovakia And Bora-Hansgrohe) – 0,07
3. Christopher Froome (UK, Sky) And 0.12
4. Michael Matthews (Australia, Team Sunweb)
5. Boasson Edvald Hagen (Norway, Dimension Data) To 0.16

Tomorrow the Tour de France on the first serious mountain test of the race, participants will overcome 160 kilometres from the summit finish of the first category La planche de Belle Filles.
