The French cyclist maintained a steady pace and conquered a challenging stage, given its uphill finish. For the Colombian cyclists, it was an intriguing stage where they came close to surprising but ultimately stayed compact within the main peloton and some escape groups.

Another standout performer was Daniel Felipe Martínez, finishing in 15th place and maintaining his position as the top Colombian rider in the overall standings. Einer Rubio finished 18th.

One of the highlights of the day was Nairo Quintana’s performance, who finished in the same group as Rubio but secured the 31st position.
