We will be back at around 10:30 BST on Wednesday for six categorised climbs and potentially more GC action involving Tadej Pogacar, Remco Evenepoel and Jonas Vingegaard.
Jasper Philipsen, was 96 points behind Biniam Girmay in the points classification this morning. He has managed to cut that down to 74 this evening.
The Belgian has had a few near misses this Tour, after winning four stages 12 months, ago. Here is what he thinks of being back on the podium at the end of stage:
“Last week was not a great week, it was an endless week for us. We had some bad luck. I am really happy it is a big relief. We can finally show our strength, with our lead-out train and did finally what we came for.
"We know the corner was quite tricky but everyone is growing in this Tour. Maybe we didn’t start in the best shape. But we all feel good and healthy and there’s still some nice stages to come.
"It was a tough week and it was already Stage 10, and we have five sprints without a win. Girmay is doing a very good ride so far, he is very far ahead, I think we just concentrate on the stages.”
There'll be a couple more days of potential sprint finishes coming up this week but Wednesday is definitely not one of them.

That was some sprint from Jasper Philipsen although it has to be said, Mathieu van der Poel's assistance completely made that possible.
Jasper Philipsen takes victory on stage 10, comfortably.
Jasper Philipsen is flying up the right side of the road…Biniam Girmay gives chase.
Mathieu van der Poel powers to the front…Jasper Philipsen is waiting to launch.
Is Mark Cavendish too far back? Wout van Aert is on the move…
Michael Morkov spins out right to look for Mark Cavendish…
Neilson Powless is taking it up for EF Education-EasyPost. He has Stefan Bissegger with him.
Mark Cavendish is well placed with three team-mates in front of him.
Alpecin-Deceuninck hit the front. They are not leaving anything to chance today.
Right here we go. The pace ratchets up above 50 and then 60km/h for the first time today.
The peloton is hardly hurtling along. They are riding at just over 40km/h but there is a long sweeping descent coming up towards the finishing line…
The last slight ramp in the road coming up now. Will anyone try anything here. Alberto Bettiol edges up towards the front.
Astana Qazaqstan are keeping themselves right in the thick of things, up on the right side of the road alongside a train of Lidl-Trek riders.
Visma-Lease a Bike are holding a line down the left.
The incoming sprint could be frantic given nobody has had to extend themselves at all today. Every team in theory should have a full squad of riders at their disposal.
