Tour de Suisse: Bryan Coquard wins stage 2 sprint

Image 1 of 9

Bryan Coquard (Cofidis) powered to his first victory of the season on stage 2 of the Tour de Suisse, jumping away from Arnaud De Lie (Lotto Dstny) in the final 150 metres as the Belgian suffered the most untimely mechanical when starting his sprint.

Coquard was quiet throughout the day, as were his Cofidis teammates, sticking in the wheels until the very best moment after latching onto De Lie’s last lead-out man and outlasting the charge from Michael Matthews (Jayco AlUla) in second and De Lie after he got going again.
