Dutch rider Thymen Arensman wins the Tour de France's toughest stage, but his Ineos-Grenadiers team is sanctioned after a spectator was hit by one of its cars.

The penultimate stage winds through the Jura and Doubs regions and has four categorized climbs, including the Côte de Thésy (3.6 km at 8.9 percent).
