Overview

- He edged Jonathan Milan and Dylan Groenewegen after sitting on Milan’s wheel and launching in the final meters.
- Thomas Silva kept the pink leader’s jersey after the third and final stage on Bulgarian roads.
- A large crash Saturday on slick roads forced six riders to quit, including UAE’s Jay Vine with an elbow fracture and Mac Soler with a pelvis fracture.
- Adam Yates withdrew Sunday with severe abrasions and a concussion, as the race transfers to Italy for a rest day before a Friday summit finish on Blockhaus that is seen as the first big test for overall contenders.
