Team Jayco AlUla's Swiss rider Mauro Schmid celebrates after winning the 13th stage of the 113th edition of the Tour de France cycling race.
Swiss rider Mauro Schmid beat Colombian Harold Tejada in a two-man sprint finish to win the 13th and longest stage of the Tour de France on Friday.
Briton Tom Pidcock, who finished third two seconds back, was the big winner of the day as he climbed up the standings from 10th at the start of the day to fourth overall.
The Olympic mountain bike champion is now just 4min 15sec behind race leader Tadej Pogacar, and nine seconds off Remco Evenepoel in the final podium spot.
Jayco AlUla's Schmid and Astana's Tejada had broken clear of a 10-man group at the head of the race with 16km to ride and they held off their charging former breakaway companions to contest the sprint finish.
