And later it was Carapaz and Vlasov, who went ahead in search of partial victory and climb in the general classification, while Ayuso succumbed, could not keep up with the pace that Ineos imposed and in the end lost the lead.
Bernal placed tenth in a general classification that changed after the high mountain day.
There is no doubt that the end of the day was very exciting, not only because of the hand that Egan Bernal gave to Rodríguez, but also because of Carapaz's great shot, which won a victory that the EF team needed.
The general was very short. There are very few differences between the first classified. Between the first, Rodríguez, and the fifth, Ayuso, there are only 27 seconds, which indicates that the last fraction will be sensational and very attractive.
The race ends this Sunday with a key day, starting and finishing in Vernier, after 150 kilometers.
