Great sprint from the Frenchman, mocking Matthews

Bryan Coquard wins the second stage of the Tour of Switzerland from Vaduz to Regensdorf, 177.3 km.

The stage is characterized by the breakaway of four riders: the Swiss Stehli, Jenni and Debons (Team Corratec Vini Fantini) and the Belgian Kuypers (Intermarché Wanty Gobert). Debons is caught 11 km from the end, while among the attackers, Jenni tries the solitary action.

Then the breakaways are caught, Bettiol tries to extend, but is caught 1.3 km from the end. In the sprint Coquard precedes everyone and manages to resist Matthews' comeback.

Yves Lampaert maintains his lead in the general classification.
