6a tappa Gio 11 Luglio MULHOUSE - LA PLANCHE DES BELLES FILLES - tappa di montagna 160.5 Km
Giulio Ciccone nuova maglia gialla del Tour de France!
Le parole di Giulio Ciccone maglia gialla del Tour de France a La Planche des Belles FIlles:
"Nella mia testa ho sempre puntato alla tappa odierna, non avrei mai pensato di conquistare la maglia gialla. Sono arrivato secondo e ho la maglia gialla, sono molto felice".
"Con questa prima tappa di montagna è inizata oggi anche la caccia alla maglia a pois, ma qui al Tour è molto difficile vincere il primato nelle montagne, con come molti ciclisti che lottano per questa maglia. Vedremo - oggi è stata la prima tappa difficile e ne abbiamo molte altr2 in programma, ma ci proviamo di sicuro. "
"indossare la magloia gialla è incredibile, questa sensazione è pazzesca. Ho 24 anni e sono qui per fare esperienza ed ora ho la maglia gialla. Onestamente, nell'ultima salita stavo pensando solo alla vittoria di tappa, soprattutto quando ho visto il nostro tempo ed avevamo solo due minuti di vantaggio. Gli ultimi 100 metri sono stati difficili. Mi sono molto arrabbiato per essere arrivato secondo, ma ora che ho la maglia gialla, è meglio. "
"La tappa di domani è pianeggiante, e possiamo provare a mantenere la maglia gialla, ma poi lavorerò assieme ai miei compagni del Team Trek-Segafredo per Richie (Porte), il nostro capitano che è fortissimo".
"Quest'anno per me è stato fantastico, il Giro d'Italia con la tappa del Mortirolo e la maglia azzurra vinta, era già un grande risultato ed ora sono qui dopo sei tappe e ho la maglia gialla. È incredibile."
GIULIO CICCONE, MAGLIA GIALLA AL TOUR
Un romano ed un abruzzese teatino, rispettivamente maglia rosa e maglia gialla al Giro ed al Tour!
Valerio Conti e Giulio Ciccone, cari ragazzi, mi fate tremare le gambe.
Giulio oggi ha superato Vito Taccone, nessuno della sua regione aveva mai preso la maglia gialla.
Sta facendo collezioni di maglie ma non ne sente il peso.
Una meraviglia in salita grazie alla sua palestra vicino casa, il Blockhouse ed il Muro di Guardiagrele.
Chissa’ come sara’ contento l’ex professionista Moreno Di Biase che gia’ nel 2010 mi predisse il suo futuro grandioso.
Incrociamo le dita per il suo prosieguio nella corsa a tappe piu’ famosa del mondo, con la certezza pero’, che Giulio Ciccone, ci fara’ divertire con il suo modo di correre frizzante e moderno.

La Planche des Belles Filles (France), July 11th – The biggest win of his career so far for Dylan Teuns and one of the biggest for Team BAHRAIN MERIDA. The Belgian rider wins atop La Planche des Belles Filles, the first summit finish of the race. A win from the breakaway and his debut victory at Le Tour de France. What a better way, also to celebrate the first ‘Grand Boucle’ victory of the team.
Stage 6 – 160.5km running from Mulhouse to the famous ski resort in the Department of Haute-Saône and featuring seven categorized climbs – was one of the most awaited. But instead of a showdown of the GC riders, a breakaway could easily formed from the beginning and happily Dylan Teuns was part of it: “Today was a good opportunity for a break so I was looking for a good chance and finally a group of 14 riders formed. It was a nice group and we worked well together.Once we saw the gap was growing, everybody started to believe that we could make it to the finish”.
In fact, Dylan Teuns managed to stay away with the only Giulio Ciccone resisting until the final few hundred meters: “I know that Ciccone is a very strong rider, he won a stage at the last Giro and it seemed to me the same situation as last year at the Vuelta, when I lost the victory with Woods and I knew I couldn’t make the same mistake today. So I had to stay calm and just waiting for the right moment. I tried a couple of times in the last five hundred meters and finally the third time I succeeded. I saw that had a little gap and I just kept pushing to the finish line”.
Dylan Teuns - who this season won also a Critérium du Dauphiné stage, wearing the yellow jersey for two days - had never won a Grand Tour stage: “It’s unbelievable and winning here at the Tour de France is a dream come true”.

Yellow for Ciccone!
Giulio Ciccone misses out on the stage 6 win but overtakes the race lead and best young rider jerseys at the Tour de France.
With Julien Bernard and Giulio Ciccone represented in the day’s large breakaway, and Bauke Mollema giving Richie Porte support amongst the GC contenders behind, Trek-Segafredo had all the angles covered, leaving an exhilarating ending up the brutal La Planche des Belles Filles climb.
One by one the breakaway riders fell off the pace on the brutal slopes of La Planche des Belles Filles, until just Ciccone and Dylan Teuns (Bahrain Merida) remained.
Teuns led over the last few hundred meters with Ciccone glued to his wheel looking ready to pounce, but the last ridiculously steep pitch determined the outcome. Teuns held strong as Ciccone fell away, the piercing gradient too much for the young Italian.
"Honestly, in the last climb, I was only thinking about the stage especially when I saw the time and we only had two minutes. That last 100 meters was super hard; I was disappointed to finish second, but now that I have the yellow jersey, it is better. I am very happy"
But all was not over for Ciccone – who struggled to stay upright over the final 75 meters and cross the line for second place – the countdown to the yellow jersey had begun.
From the GC rivals group behind, the yellow jersey-clad Julian Alaphilippe (Deceuninck-Quick Step) attacked, knowing it would be close. Alaphilippe crossed the line in sixth place, and when Ciccone’s time bonuses were factored in, the Quick Step rider was six seconds shy of keeping yellow on his shoulders.
Ciccone had done it.
Most of the GC rivals crossed the line within seconds of each other, perhaps a few cracks shown but no big damage to their classification hopes with many more mountains to come.
Richie Porte arrived in 11th place, successfully passing the first of many very hard climbing tests."To get the yellow is unbelievable, this feeling is crazy. I am 24 and I am here for the experience and now I have the yellow jersey".
Ciccone also leads the Best Young Rider competition but will wear the leader’s jersey in stage seven, and it will be Egan Bernal (Team Ineos), in second, who will sport the white jersey. While in the breakaway, Ciccone also grabbed mountain points on offer and now sits in second place in that competition.
Stage seven will see the longest stage of this year’s race and is expected to end in a bunch finish.
"Today with this stage I also started my operation for the mountains jersey, but it’s very hard here as many riders try for this. We will see – today was the first hard stage and we have a lot more coming, but we try for it for sure. Tomorrow is flat, and we can try and keep the yellow jersey, but after, it is all for Richie who is super strong, so we will work for him".
