Video: Tour de France 2020 Stage 3 Highlights

Tour de France 2020 - 107th Edition - 2nd stage Nice - Alexander Kristoff (NOR - UAE - Team Emirates) - Mads Pedersen (DEN - Trek - Segafredo) - Peter Sagan (SVK - Bora - Hansgrohe) - Fabien Grellier (FRA - Team Total Direct Energie)

Australian rider Caleb Ewan produced an irresistible late burst of speed to pip a stunned Sam Bennett of Ireland on the finish line of stage three of the Tour de France on Monday. France’s Julian Alaphilippe retained the leader’s yellow jersey after the 198-kilometre stage from the Nice football stadium to the hilltop town of Sisteron in the Haute Provence region. Ewan, 26, won three stages on the 2019 Tour but started this edition on his backside after a bruising fall on crash-strewn opening stage. Known as the pocket rocket and standing 1.65 metres (5ft 5ins), Ewan bided his time and overtook Bennett right on the line. The timely win gives Lotto a double boost after the team was reduced from eight to six riders on stage one when Philippe Gilbert broke a knee while John Degenkolb was thrown off the race for being too slow.
