ISSOIRE, France (AP) — Pello Bilbao has sprinted to his first Tour de France stage victory and also gained significant time in the overall standings. Jonas Vingegaard still leads overall after the tricky 10th stage. Bilbao raised his arms in celebration at the end of one of the hardest stages of the Tour so far. The Bahrain-Victorious rider immediately dedicated his win to former teammate and friend Gino Mäder, who died last month from injuries suffered in a crash at the Tour de Suisse. Bilbao finished the undulating 167-kilometer (104-mile) route from Vulcania to Issoire just ahead of Georg Zimmermann and Ben O’Connor in the sweltering heat of central France. Defending champion Vingegaard maintained his 17-second advantage over two-time winner Tadej Pogačar.
