CARCASSONNE, France :Belgian Jasper Philipsen claimed his maiden victory on the Tour de France when he won a bunch sprint in the 15th stage as overall leader Jonas Vingegaard and his team suffered a bad day on Sunday.
Vingegaard retained the yellow jersey but hit the deck and lost two of his Jumbo-Visma team mates as Steven Kruijswijk crashed out and Primoz Roglic did not take the start of the 202.5-km ride from Rodez after failing to recover from injuries. The breakaway was reined in with 50km left, shortly after Vingegaard crashed along with team mate Tiesj Benoot.
"I don't know exactly what happened. Tiesj crashed in front of me and I could not avoid him. That's cycling, I just have some bruises on my left side. I'm ok but it was a bad day."
