Second stage of the Tour du Dauphiné of 167.3 km, starting from Brassac-les-Mines and finishing slightly uphill in La Chaise-Dieu.

Jumbo-Visma and Soudal-Quick Step keep the breakaway of the day under control   Gregard ,   Campenaerts ,   small ,   Peters ,   Elissonde   And   Latour , catching it 10 km from the finish.   Great work by Vingegaard   in the last kilometer in favor of teammate Laporte,   but Julian Alaphilippe's sprint is extraordinary   who returns to victory beating Carapaz and Tesfation.

Laporte, fourth today, keeps the yellow jersey of leader of the general standings   with the same time as Alaphilippe and 4" on Carapaz.
