Geraint Thomas was able to re-mount and finish stage three at the Tour de Suisse following a crash with 60 kilometres to go.<\/p>\n
The Welshman went down following a bottleneck into a tight left-hand corner. After some initial assessment the INEO Grenadier was able to get back on the bike and, with the help of his teammates, forge on back towards the peloton.<\/p>\n
AJ August, Bob Jungels and Lucas Hamilton put in superb shifts to help bridge Thomas back to the bunch. This coincided with the day’s final major climb, which saw the peloton quickly blow apart.<\/p>\n
Victor Langellotti led the team home into Heiden in 11th place and is also now the team’s best-placed rider on the GC. Earlier Ben Swift and Laurens De Plus followed a flurry of initial moves before the day’s break ultimately formed.<\/p>\n
American Quinn Simmons (Lidl-Trek) took an impressive solo victory on the day, while Romain Gregoire (Groupama-FDJ) retained the overall lead.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Geraint Thomas was able to re-mount and finish stage three at the Tour de Suisse following a crash…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":192801,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4104],"tags":[4230,79,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-192800","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-cycling","8":"tag-cycling","9":"tag-sports","10":"tag-uk","11":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114701056323735242","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/192800","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=192800"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/192800\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/192801"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=192800"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=192800"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=192800"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
