Rather than running directly from the bottom bracket onto a seat post and onto the saddle, Trek has dropped the seat post, leaving a significant gap below the top tube and between the seat stays. As is almost the norm for new aero bikes now, Trek has opted to significantly increase the surface area at both the head tube and bottom bracket areas to improve aerodynamics. A new Trek Madone has broken cover at the Critérium du Dauphiné WorldTour stage race.

As a former mountains classification winner in the Tour de France, it was perhaps unsurprising that Rolland grabbed maximum points both on this climb and the other three dotted throughout the stage. Sean Quinn (EF Education-Easy Post) was third.

The Belgian rider sprinted to his fourth win of the year so far.
