Paris-Nice 2024 Mcnulty Back in Yellow as Skjelmose Wins Stage 6

SKJELMOSE Mattias

La Colle-sur-Loup, 6th stage: Friday, March 8th – Danish champion Mattias Skjelmose (Lidl-Trek), helped all day by his team-mate Mads Pedersen, stole the show between Sisteron and La Colle-sur-Loup on Friday to win the 6th stage of Paris-Nice in a three-man breakaway. Gone with him in the short but gruelling last climb, Americans Brandon McNulty and Matteo Jorgenson finished second and third and the UAE Team Emirates rider took back the yellow jersey he handed for two days to Australian Luke Plapp. Jorgenson, who launched the decisive move in the finale, will sport the white jersey in Saturday’s modified mountain stage.
