Tour de France 2025 Milan thanks teammates after second stage win

He prevailed in a 10-man sprint after the peloton was held up behind a massive crash with just 1km to go, as riders went down on slippery roads in a rainy finish in south-eastern France.

Eritrean Biniam Girmay was attended to by race doctors. Slovenia's Tadej Pogacar crossed the finish line safely to retain the overall leader's yellow jersey. He leads Dane Jonas Vingegaard by 4min 15sec.

"I'm without words, I have to say," said Milan. "I didn't survive (to this point in the race) alone, I survived with the help of my teammates. Without this, I would have been dropped on one of the climbs.
