Recipe time: Viewers of the Tour de France on Eurosport may have been following - and hopefully acting on - Jonathan Harris-Bass’s daily recipes. For stage 13, he’s gone with Brioche, the “queen of dessert breads”.

Intermediate sprint: Goldstein wins it at 104km, the first Israeli rider to win anything at Le Tour. He takes 20pts, Bennett 17 and Latour 15. Back down the road, will Cavendish flex his muscles by winning the sprint for fourth? He doesn’t get really involved, leaving Sonny Colbrelli to pick up some useful points.
