Hello and welcome to live coverage of stage 10 of the Tour de France. The race resumes after the first rest day - spend in Andorra - with this 197km ride out of the Pyrenees, through the Ariege and to the town of Revel. There's one big climb right at the start - the Cat.1 Port d'Envalira - but then we should see things regroup ahead of a bunch sprint finale.

The day belongs to the man they call Bling - a maiden Tour de France stage win for Michael Matthews, who made it a grand slam of Grand Tour stage wins for the 25-year-old Australian.
0km
The pack soft-pedals over the line almost 10 minutes down. There will be no change in the overall standings then, with Chris Froome still 16 seconds clear of fellow Brit Adam Yates.
0km
Steve Cummings comes over the line five and a half minutes down. It didn't work out for him or Dimension Data today...
0km
Remnants of the break are arriving in dribs and drabs. Last over the line are Nibali and Landa...
0km
Peter Sagan was boxed in but recovered to take second place ahead of Boasson Hagen and Van Avermaet.
0km
Luke Durbridge is all smiles as he rides the final kilometre home - and so he should be because his Orica-BikeExchange team-mates just pulled it off with Daryl Impey leading out Australia's Michael Matthews for his first win on the Tour de France.
0km
Victory for Michael Matthews!
0.3km
Impey leads and it's Van Avermaet who makes the first move...
1km
Under the flamme rouge and it's still together. This is playing into the hands of Matthews and Sagan, the stronger of the sprinters.
1.5km
Meanwhile, the peloton resembles a Sunday club ride on the climb - around eight minutes off the pace...
2km
Sagan tosses away his water bottle and seems to have a last energy gel... He's stuck between Impey and Matthews in an Orica sandwich...
3km
Impey pings from the back but Sagan latches on. Still all together. Orica trying to use their numerical advantage.
4km
Boasson Hagen eases up and lets Sagan back onto the front, with Matthews just behind. Van Avermaet and Dumoulin are keeping quiet while Impey is sat on the back.
5km
Boasson Hagen now zips past into the front - he's going for a long one, but Sagan has it covered.
6km
They've gone over the plateau at the top and are onto the descent now... Sagan on the front. He's such a machine.
7km
Sagan leads the six leaders over the summit to take 5pts in the KOM competition - not that he's bothered about that. He wants a second stage win - but faces stiff competition from at least four of these five fellow breakaway riders.
7.5km
Impey now pushing on but Sagan closes the gap. It's going to be a stalemate on this climb...
8km
Sagan was setting the tempo before Impey darted out of the saddle. Durbridge has been dropped but the others are still there...
8.5km
Durbridge setting the tempo on the front with Sagan in his wheel and then Matthews, Boasson Hagen, Dumoulin, Impey and Van Avermaet....
9km
The seven leaders are about to start the Cat.3 Cote de Saint-Ferreol (1.8km at 6.6%). It's a climb of two parts with a flatter section splitting the two before it kicks up to double digits for the final ramp to the summit.
