Kaden Groves (Alpecin-Deceuninck) claimed a stunning solo victory on stage 20 of the Tour de France, attacking away after a breathless fight from a 13-man breakaway 17km from the finish line in Pontarlier.

It looked like a six-man group was set to fight things out in the final 20km, but Iván Romeo (Movistar) and Romain Grégoire (Groupama-FDJ) crashed hard in a wet corner, and the Australian and two others got ahead, having just navigated their way through the treacherous conditions.
