Stage 12 resulted in a fair amount of shakeup on the Lanterne Rouge leader board.
  • Cousin was in the 20-rider autobus, solidifying his hold on the top spot.
  • Kluge was in that group too, moving past Sivakov -- who was in the main peloton and fell all the way back to 10th.
  • Another rider in the autobus, Frederik Frison, shot up from 28th to 3rd.
  • Haller and Chevalier were also off the back, but not in the autobus. They lost 6' 38" to Cousin and Kluge, but stayed at 4th and 5th (passing Sivakov but passed by Frison).
  • Sam Bennett was also in the autobus, so he didn't gain or lose time on Cousin -- but he did move up to 14th. A few good showings in the mountain stages and he could end up at or near the top.
Here are the standings after 12 stages:
  1. Jerome Cousin 54h 48' 53"
  2. Roger Kluge -14' 22"
  3. Frederik Frison -18' 08"
  4. Marco Haller -22' 23"
  5. Maxime Chevalier -23' 00"

14. Sam Bennett -29' 17"
