Tour of Spain: Ben Swift 3rd

John Degenkolb was the fastest in a tight bunch sprint at the conclusion of the 181.5km stage from Pamplona to Viana with Britain’s Ben Swift in 3rd.

The Argos-Shimano sprinter pipped experienced Australian Allan Davis (Orica-GreenEdge) and Ben Swift (Sky). Jonathan Castroviejo (Movistar) retained the leader’s red jersey. Ben Swift held a good position heading through the final roundabout and kicked on the right-hand side of the road as the finish beckoned.

John Degenkolb however just squeezed out Swift to claim his first Grand Tour stage win, the German (Argos-Shimano) arriving late to just pip his rivals on the line in an extremely close finish. Allan Davis (Orica-GreenEDGE) filled out the podium positions in second.
