Magnus Cort (EF Education-EasyPost) went out on a solo break today to add points to his tally in the King of the Mountains Competition. While he may have wanted some company in the effort, at least this way he didn't have to sprint it out for the single point atop the Category 4 climbs out on course today. He had already clinched the first Maillot a Pois and was looking to add more points as he approached the second climb of the day. Should he claim the final climb he will most likely hold the jersey through at least the first two stages on French roads. Not bad for the countryman of most of the fans along the roadside today.
