Tour de France 2014 – Stage 15 [FULL STAGE]

July 20, 2014

Tour de France 2014 – Stage 15 – Tallard – Nîmes : 222 km

The 101st Tour de France is a special occasion for Great Britain with Yorkshire hosting the Grand Départ in Leeds on July 5 and Chris Froome looking to defend the title he won last year and make it three British wins in a row. From Great Britain, the race makes an excursion into Belgium to mark the 100th anniversary of the First World War and visits the pavé of Paris-Roubaix and heads south, skirting the Eastern frontier of France as La Grand Boucle makes its way across the Vosges, Alps and Pyrenees in a finely balanced route with ample opportunities for the sprinters and just one individual time trial. The reintroduction of cobbles, last seen in 2010, will ensure a more anxious first week than the peloton is accustomed too, while the first three British stages of the Tour aren’t as straight forward as they seem. With a brief foray into the Alps, the visit of the Pyrenees in the third week will decide the 2014 Tour de France champion with the solitary time trial, a leg busting 54km, the final roll of the dice for the likes of Chris Froome, Alberto Contador and Vincenzo Nibali.

Alexander Kristoff (Katusha) won his second stage at the Tour de France, claiming the sprint during stage 15 in Nîmes on Sunday. The on-rushing peloton caught the day’s two escapees within mere meters of the finish line, snatching the stage victory from the grasps of breakaway riders; Jack Bauer (Garmin-Sharp) and Martin Elmiger (IAM Cycling). Heinrich Haussler (IAM Cycling) and Peter Sagan (Cannondale) rounded out the top three.

There were no changes in the top of the GC rankings, with race leader Vincenzo Nibali (Astana) facing no challenge from his rivals on a day tailor-made for the sprinters, but which was very nearly stolen by the escapees.

“It was close, it was really close,” a smiling Kristoff said, as Bauer was reduced to tears beyond the finish line. “The break was strong and, with the roundabouts at the end, it was difficult to close them back. Luckily we just caught them on the line and I’m really happy.”

The joy of victory for the Norwegian sprinter was matched by the agony of defeat for Garmin’s Bauer, who looked set to cruise to the team’s first stage victory after distancing the Swiss champion in the final few hundred meters. But the duo’s gap was not quite large enough to withstand the pressure of the sprinters, and Bauer grimaced in frustration as he slipped to 10th on the stage behind the clot of sprinters.

“It’s a childhood fantasy to win a stage of the Tour for any cyclist, and especially for a Kiwi cyclist,” Bauer said after calming down and getting cleaned up. “Not many of us get the chance to start the Tour de France. I really gave it absolutely everything, and as you can see from my meltdown at the finish line, I was pretty disappointed to come away empty handed.

“We really came together as a team and decided this morning that one of us would be in the move no matter what it took. I hadn’t planned on it being a two-man move. Me and Martin managed it pretty well between ourselves. I think we both had decent legs in the finale, I felt I had the upper hand in the last 20km. I just waited to pounce. Maybe I waited a little too late.”
