Latest on Dennis' future as Alaphilippe stuns the Tour de France

What next for Australian after walking out of the race? 

In the latest episode of the Cyclingnews podcast, brought to you by Sportful, Pinarello and Floyds of Leadville, we looked back at Julian Alaphilippe’s stunning victory in the Pau time trial. The Frenchman won ahead of Geraint Thomas and Thomas de Gendt and now leads Thomas by 1:26 ahead of the two key mountain stages. 

Coming up we’ll hear from Thomas and John Allert from MacLaren on the bizarre situation involving Rohan Dennis after he quit the race on stage 12. We ponder whether this is the end for Dennis at Bahrain Merida, and just how far Alaphilippe can go in the maillot jaune.
