I tried hard to come up with a title that embraced the uniqueness of this moment. I doubt that a pair of twins have ever sprinted for a stage victory that would also award the Maillot Jaune in the Tour in its over hundred year history. That is exactly what is going on, Simon Yates (Jayco-Alula) had gotten away on the final descent with his twin brother, Adam Yates (UAE Team Emirates) in tow. The two opened up a ten second gap on the marquee riders of the Tour rather quickly. They worked together descending the Cote de Pike continuing to build on their advantage. With a climb up to the finish line in Bilbao, it was a good chance the two climbers would be able to vie for stage honors between themselves.
