Having fallen through the GC rankings during the first two weeks,
Simon Yates was forced to change his plans for the
Tour de France to hunting stages. Once again. The winner of ten grand tour stages had hoped to add another one on Wednesday, however Richard Carapaz turned to be outside Yates' reach.
"Another second place stage finish for me. I did my best, but I was running out of legs in the end. Chapeau to Richie, he did a great ride, but that’s all I could do today in the final," Yates admits in a
press release.
