MATTEO Trentin won the race to Lyon as Chris Froome retained his overall lead after stage 14 of the Tour de France.

Italian Trentin, an Omega Pharma-Quickstep team-mate of Mark Cavendish, won a sprint finish after being involved in an 18-man breakaway group.
Britain’s race leader Froome finished more than seven minutes behind Trentin, but crucially, in the peloton alongside his main rivals for the race victory.
Froome leads Bauke Mollema and Alberto Contador by more than two minutes.
The Team Sky rider’s advantage was reduced by more than one minute on stage 13 when Contador and Mollema successfully rode away from him in a frenetic race dominated by crosswinds.
However, stage 14 was more relaxed and, once a breakaway group which contained no riders who were a threat to Froome’s overall lead had been allowed to race clear, Team Sky marshalled the peloton to the finish.
“The first 80km was pretty flat out and trying to chase the guys up the road was not an easy task,” said Froome, who leads Mollema by two minutes 28 seconds, with Contador 17 seconds further back.
The route featured seven categorised climbs and looked perfect for a large breakaway group to establish a stage-winning advantage – and that is exactly what transpired.
Germany’s breakaway specialist Jens Voigt was in a group of four riders who tried to go clear early on and the quartet were soon joined by 14 other riders, who included Britain’s David Millar.
The 18 riders built up a lead of more than six minutes and only split up when Julien Simon sprinted clear on the penultimate climb of the stage, 15km from the finish line.
The Sojasun rider was trying to become the first French stage winner of the race’s 100th edition, but he was caught in the closing couple of kilometres as Michael Albasini and Jan Bakelants took up the pace.
Simon tried to contest the sprint but Trentin, who is usually one of Cavendish’s lead-out men, was the quickest finisher and he pipped Orica GreenEdge’s Swiss rider Albasini on the line with American Andrew Talansky of the Garmin-Sharp team third. (BBC Sport)
