14.13 Kami Gradek, Guillaume Van Keirsbulck and unfortunately also our Andrea Bagioli come off.
14.12 While the group of fugitives is slowly crumbling, the detachment of the Yellow Jersey has exceeded 8 ‘.
14.11 The Green Jersey Wout Van Aert immediately takes the lead, while his partner Christophe Laporte seems more in difficulty.
14.08 Here we are! Col du Télégraphe begins for fugitives! Very hard climb of 11.9 km at 7% average gradient. In the first half the hardest slopes.
14.06 For now, the Yellow Jersey team does not seem at all willing to chase. We’ll see if the situation changes when the road gets tough.
14.03 The advantage of the fugitives continues to rise. The UAE is now granting 7’30 ”.
14.01 We recorded the composition of the escape: Christophe Laporte and Wout Van Aert (Jumbo-Visma), Mikael Cherel (AG2R Citroën), Nils Politt and Maximilian Schachmann (BORA – hansgrohe), Andrea Bagioli e Mattia Cattaneo (Quick-Step Alpha Vinyl), Simon Geschke and Ion Izagirre (Cofidis), Kamil Gradek and Dylan Teuns (Bahrain – Victorious), Guillaume Van Keirsbulck (Alpecin-Deceuninck), Jonas Rutsch (EF Education-EasyPost), Warren Barguil (Arkéa Samsic), Mads Pedersen and Tony Gallopin (Trek – Segafredo), Pierre Latour and Maciej Bodnar (TotalEnergies) and Krists Neilands (Israel – Premier Tech).

13.57 The detachment of the group arrives at 6 ‘in this valley.
13.55 This is the elevation profile of today’s tough stage:
13.53 After the first 60 km of today’s hamlet. Now the riders will tackle about 20 km of slight flatness before starting the terrifying final stage with the climb to the Col du Télégraphe.
13.50 The delay of the group rises above 5 minutes.
13.47 Belgian Oliver Naesen is forced to retire. AG2R therefore loses another man.
13.46 The points available today for the Polka Dot Jersey are many, with two GPM hors-categories, the highest level of difficulty. The ranking can therefore be upset from here to the end of the fraction.
13.44 The Yellow Jersey group now passes the GPM, 4’50 ”late.
13.43 Latour therefore took 5 points, rising to 13 in the special ranking. With the 3 points Geschke instead went to 22.
13.42 With an extension it was Pierre Latour who made sure to pass first on the GPM. According to Simon Geschke.
13.40 100 km to the finish! The fugitives have finished the ascent of Lacets de Montvernier.
13.39 It is obviously the UAE of Pogacar to make the group pace in this uphill stretch.
13.36 The Dutchman gave some small signs of recovery but as soon as the road started to climb, he had to raise the white flag.
13.34 Mathieu Van der Poel leaves. His remains a very difficult Tour.
13.32 Climb full of hairpin bends and rather challenging even if very short the one that the riders are facing now.
13.29 4 ‘now the advantage of the fugitives against the group.
13.26 Start of the climb towards the Lacets de Montvernier GPM (second category of 3.4 km at 8.2% average gradient).
13.25 The advantage of the twenty treads rises to 3’30 “.
13.22 We remember the top ten of the general classification:
| RNA. | RIDER | TEAM | TIME |

| 1 | POGAČAR Tadej SLO | UAE Team Emirates | 37:11:28 |
| 2 | FEEL Lennard GIVES | BEST – hansgrohe | 0:11 |

13.19 Among the riders in the lead, the best placed in the general classification is Warren Barguil. Before this morning’s departure, the Frenchman from Arkéa Samsic was 13’33 ”behind Tadej Pogacar.
13.17 1’55 ”the advantage of the 20 treads.
13.14 115 km to the finish!
13.11 But because in the race I composed the corsa test: Christophe Laporte and Wout Van Aert (Jumbo-Visma), Mikael Cherel (AG2R Citroën), Nils Politt and Maximilian Schachmann (BORA – hansgrohe), Andrea Bagioli and Mattia Cattaneo (Quick- Step Alpha Vinyl, Simon Geschke and Ion Izagirre (Cofidis), Kamil Gradek and Dylan Teuns (Bahrain – Victorious), Matthew Van der Poel and Guillaume Van Keirsbulck (Alpecin-Deceuninck), Jonas Rutsch (EF Education-EasyPost), Warren Barguil (Arkéa Samsic), Mads Pedersen and Tony Gallopin (Trek – Segafredo), Pierre Latour and Maciej Bodnar (TotalEnergies) and Krists Neilands (Israel – Premier Tech).
13.08 Attention: the three treads are joined by a nice group of riders.
13.07 Cattaneo raggiunge Van Aert e Van der Poel.
13.06 Mattia Cattaneo is about to return to the lead, but the group is nearby.
13.05 This is the points classification after the intermediate sprint in Aiguebelle:
| RNA. | RIDER | POINTS | POINTS SCORED TODAY | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | – | VAN AERT Wout BEL | 304 | 20 |
| 2 | – | JAKOBSEN Fabio NED | 155 | 6 |
| 3 | – | POGAČAR Tadej SLO | 139 | – |
| 4 | – | CORT Magnus DEN | 129 | – |
| 5 | – | LAPORTE Christophe FRA | 114 | – |
13.03 Extremely long group.
13.00 Cattaneo vede Van Aert e Van der Poel.
12.59 Now the advantage of the two heads goes back to 30 ”. In the middle there is always Mattia Cattaneo.
12.57 In the meantime, the group Mattia Cattaneo (Quick-Step Alpha Vinyl) left.
12.55 The group does not allow space. The advantage of Wout Van Aert (Jumbo-Visma) and Mathieu Van der Poel (Alpecin-Deceuninck) has dropped to 15 ”.
12.54 The six pursuers are about to be picked up by the group.
12.53 Van Aert vince lo sprint intermedio di Aiguebelle.

12.50 There is a group of six runners in pursuit of the leading pair.
12.48 The advantage of Van Aert and Van der Poel over the yellow jersey group rises to 40 ”. Meanwhile, from behind they try to stretch other runners.
12.45 One of Van Aert’s goals for this stage is certainly the flying finish line in Aiguebelle, located less than 7 km away.
12.43 No withdrawal for now today. The runners in the race are therefore still 161.
12.41 14 ”the advantage of Van Aert and Van der Poel over the group.
12.38 Immediate bike change for Aleksandr Vlasov (BORA – hansgrohe), perhaps due to a puncture.
12.36 Other riders leave the group.
12.34 E partono subito Wout Van Aaert (Jumbo-Visma) and Mathieu Van der Poel (Alpecin-Deceuninck)!
12.34 OFFICIALLY STARTS THE ELEVENTH STAGE OF THE TOUR DE FRANCE 2022! GOOD FUN!
12.31 Last transfer kilometer.
12.28 After the first 46 km without pitfalls, we will begin to climb towards the Lacets de Montvernier GPM (3.4 km at 8.2% average gradient), the first roughness of the day. A short stretch of constant slight flatness will follow and then the real climbs will begin: the Col du Télégraphe (11.9 km at 7.1%), the Col du Galibier (17.7 km at 6.9%) and the Col du Granon (11.3 km at 9.2%), with the last GPM placed on the finish line.
12.25 Today’s fraction foresees many difficulties and therefore promises to be full of emotions.
12.22 Today we will go from Albertville to the Col de Granon, for a total of 151.7 km of great effort.
12.19 The runners set off to travel the transfer section.
12.16 As far as the general classification is concerned, however, Lennard Kämna has forcefully established the first position of Tadej Pogacar, who however saved himself by 11 “.
12.13 It starts from yesterday’s victory of the fugitive Magnus Cort. The Dane of the EF Education-Easy Post surprised everyone by imposing himself at the finish line in Megeve in front of the Australian Nick Schultz.
12.10 Hello everyone and welcome to the LIVE LIVE written of the eleventh stage of the Tour de France 2022.
Hello everyone and welcome to LIVE LIVE written on the eleventh stage of the Tour de France 2022. Today we will go from Albertville to the Col de Granon, for a total of 151.7 km of great effort.
It will restart from yesterday’s victory of the fugitive Magnus Cort. The Dane of the EF Education-Easy Post surprised everyone by imposing himself at the finish line in Megeve in front of the Australian Nick Schultz (BikeExchange – Jayco). As for the general classification, however, Lennard Kvne (BORA – hansgrohe) has forcefully established the first position of Tadej Pogacar (UAE Emirates), who, however, was saved for 11 ”.
Today’s fraction foresees many difficulties and therefore promises to be full of emotions. After the first 46 km without pitfalls, we will begin to climb towards the Lacets de Montvernier GPM (3.4 km at 8.2% average gradient), the first roughness of the day. A short stretch of constant slight flatness will follow and then the real climbs will begin: the Col du Télégraphe (11.9 km at 7.1%), the Col du Galibier (17.7 km at 6.9%) and the Col du Granon (11.3 km at 9.2%), with the last GPM placed on the finish line. It will therefore be a stage that will see all the big names fighting each other. Pogacar will certainly start as the favorite, but especially pay attention to Jonas Vingegaard, Geraint Thomas, Enric Mas, Primoz Roglic and David Gaudu.
OA Sport will offer you the LIVE written LIVE of the eleventh stage of the Tour de France 2022! The appointment is for 12:10 with the start of our updates in real time.
