Frenchman Victor Lafay produced a terrific late attack to claim victory on the second stage of the Tour de France.
Belgian Wout van Aert was the favourite beforehand to win the 208.9km stage from Vitoria Gasteiz to San Sebastian.
But despite a desperate late sprint the Belgian could not reel Lafay in, with Tadej Pogacar third and Briton Tom Pidcock fourth in Spain.
Overnight leader Adam Yates retained the overall leader's yellow jersey.
Stage three will see the Tour head into France on Monday.

UAE are much stronger this year than last year. That was a show of intent today.

Well personally I thought today was a better race than yesterday’s. A far more exciting finish for me.
Podjacar seems to be putting himself in far more danger than he needs to be, if he’s not careful I can see him coming off but I guess that’s the racer in him .
