Belgian in green jersey too strong for chasing pack in MoulinsNo change in general classification on flat stage for sprinters
Jasper Philipsen took his fourth stage of the 2023 Tour de France, winning stage 11 from Clermont Ferrand to Moulins, after sprinting clear of closest rival, Dylan Groenewegen, of Team Jayco AlUla, in the final 100 metres.
The Belgian, already a winner in Bayonne, Nogaro and Bordeaux, mastered the fast finish with ease, despite the absence of steadfast lead-out man, and Alpecin Deceuninck team mate, Matthieu Van der Poel, who was dropped by the bunch, due to illness.
