The EF Education-EasyPost rider escaped from a high-quality, eight-man breakaway to earn the biggest win of his career

Irish rider Ben Healy won a hilly sixth stage of the Tour de France after a long solo breakaway while Mathieu van der Poel took back the yellow jersey from defending champion Tadej Pogačar by one second.

Remco Evenepoel is clearly the man to beat in stage five. The Olympic and world time trial champion was superb at the Dauphine where he took 20 seconds out of Jonas Vingegaard and was 48 seconds ahead of Tadej Pogacar. And with no Filippo Ganna or Stefan Bissegger after their stage one crashes it is hard to look beyond the big three.
