Almeida heats up Tour of Switzerland final day
Gulf Today
|June 22, 2025
Joao Almeida of Team UAE won the penultimate stage of the Tour of Switzerland on Saturday as Kevin Vauquelin clung on to his slender overall lead with an edge of your seat finale looming.
-
Sunday's decisive stage is a 10.1km uphill individual time-trial, and therefore should deliver a spellbinding conclusion to the week.
Breakoutstar Scotsman Oscar Onley was second close on the wheel of the Portuguese stage winner Almeida, as 22-year-old Onley almost added to his stage five win.
This seventh stage was an up and down affair over 207km in sizzling heat as the mercury tipped over 30С.
Yellow jersey and French hope Vauquelin was third at the same time as he kept his powder dry for the eighth and final stage.
Another Frenchman, two-time former world road race champion Julian Alaphilippe, finished 8sec down in fifth to retain a strong interest in lifting the overall title Sunday.
