After one day of rest the riders started the 10th stage of the Tour de France from Île d'Oléron to Île de Ré.
The 168.5km ride was marred by a lot of crashes because of the often small roads, poor quality asphalt and treacherous winds.
Amongst the victims were number 3 and 7 of the overall ranking Tadej Pogačar and Guillaume Martin. But they managed to get back on the bike.
There were some nice pictures when the riders crossed the giant bridge to the Island.

As expected the race ended in a sprint which was won by Sam Bennett. He finished just before Caleb Ewan.
With this victory he took over de green jersey from Peter Sagan.
Roglic kept the yellow leaders jersey.
