Stage 1 results here.

What a lovely victory by Tobias Lund and Decathlon. It's important for him to show that he's fast enough to win so he won't be ignored for Kooij.

First WT victory too in his first race day for them.

The inversion of the hierarchy within French teams seems completed now. While Decathlon takes both the stage and the jersey, FDJ's half-leader (the other half is supposed to be Donnenwirth if I understood correctly) goes into sprinters stages km-0 breakaways following an Uno-X (and again when his breakaway is caught because they was an intermediate sprint soon after it started), and their sprinter finishes after the 15^th^ place. Okay, Martin used his breakaway to pick a few time bonuses in order to – very partially – compensate for his loss of time yesterday. Meanwhile, Narvaez got half as much bonus without doing any effort.
