The Slovenian resisted the attacks of the Spaniard and Matteo Jorgenson, maintaining an eight-second advantage over the American
It ends with the final success of Primoz Roglic the 2024 edition of Dauphiné Tour. The Slovenian from Bora Hansgrohe managed the effort during the last stage won by Carlos Rodriguez (Ineos Grenadiers) losing only a handful of seconds. First part characterized by a nine-way escape with Bart Lemmen (Visma-Lease a Bike), Marc Soler, Tim Wellens (UAE Team Emirates), Sean Quinn (EF Education-Easypost), Bruno Armirail (Decathlon Ag2R La Difesa), Guillaume Martin (Cofidis), David Gaudu (Groupama -FDJ), Eduardo Sepulveda (Lotto-Dstny) and Omar Fraile (Ineos-Grenadiers) while behind Lorenzo Fortunato (Astana Qazaqstan Team) did his best in the hunt for points.
Ineos Grenadiers tried to close, however it was Giulio Ciccone (Lidl-Trek) to ignite the race on the Col des Glieres. An action that allowed us to close on the pacesetters, but which had no space thanks to the work of Bora-Hansgrohe and Ineos itself. At that point Carlos Rodriguez started in the company of Matteo Jorgenson (Team Visma | Lease a Bike) and Derek Gee (Israel-Premier Tech) triumphing ahead of the American and with a fifteen second lead over the Canadian, while Roglic arrived with 48 seconds behind in sixth place ahead of Ciccone. In the general classification the Slovenian triumphed with eight seconds over Jorgenson and thirty-six over Gee, while Ciccone had to settle for eighth place, 2’54” behind.
