Schmid's victory was a testament to his perseverance and tactical intelligence. He was part of a large breakaway group that formed early and managed to hold off the chasing peloton.
Tom Pidcock's GC Surge
Tom Pidcock, the double Olympic gold medallist, was a key instigator of the breakaway. He climbed as high as second overall during the stage before settling into fourth place, just nine seconds behind race leader Remco Evenepoel.
