The first bunch sprint of the 2023 Tour de France was an exhilarating finale to an otherwise quiet day. For Alpecin-Deceuninck it was a sprint played to perfection.
In a chaotic final few kilometres, it was Mathieu van der Poel who put on the best of the leadout's for his respective sprinter. When Jasper Philipsen launched his move, there was no stopping him. Although, there was a slightly contentious moment when Wout van Aert was possibly pushed into the barriers, Philipsen was clearly the quicker rider.
Check out the final sprint in the video below!
