- Adam Yates keeps yellow jersey after finish in San Sebastián
- Wout Van Aert shows frustration in finishing second to Lafay
Adam Yates held on to his overall lead in the Tour de France after he safely negotiated a tense second stage, the longest of the 2023 Tour, from Vitoria-Gasteiz to San Sebastián, won by the French rider Victor Lafay.
Lafay, already the surprise package of the Tour’s opening stages, took his Cofidis team’s first Tour success for 15 years, after breaking clear of the race favourites in the final kilometre of the stage.
