Fans give Dutch rider Arensman 'extra few watts' for debut victory

Slovenian Tadej Pogacar retained the overall leader's yellow jersey as he took second place by beating chief rival Jonas Vingegaard, in a two-man sprint finish 1min 12sec behind Ineos Grenadiers rider Arensman.

"I just wanted to experience everything and I had to be really patient the first week," said the 25-year-old Arensman.
