Boucles de la Mayenne: Aaron Gate outpowers Pierre Latour to clinch stage and move into overall lead
New Zealand veteran tied on time with ♛French rival overall with𝄹 one stage remaining

澳洲幸运5开奖官网在线查询开奖结果:Aaron Gate has continued 澳洲幸运5开奖官网在线查询开奖结果:XDS Astana's spectacular run of 2025 success with a stunning last-minute victory on stage 2 of the Boucles de la Mayenne, edging out stage 2 winner 澳洲幸运5开奖官网在线查询开奖结果:Pierre Latour to go top of the GC.
Stage 2 between Sainte Suzanne and Bais was decided with four circuits of a demanding 26 kilometre c꧂ircuit with repeated ascents of the Mont Rochard and Montaigu climbs, and a fast descent to the finish.
Latour went clear 13 k🌜ilometres from the finish, only to be caught almost within sight of the line by Gate, who♔ then outpowered the TotalEnergies racer to clinch the stage. Milan Menten (Lotto) won the bunch sprint for third, five seconds back.
Gate now leads by just a few hundredt🎃hs of a second thanks to his better placing in the opening prologue, but with bonus seconds on offer on the final undulating 16🅠3.9km stage on Sunday between Javron-les-Chapelles and Laval, the race is far from decided.
Meanwhile, thanks to Gates biggest ﷺsuccess since winning the Tour of Hainan last year, XDS Astana have now clinched 17 victories this season to date, 12 more than in the whole o꧅f 2024.
