No change in the overall standings ahead of the second rest day. Chris Froome still very much in yellow - but this race ain't over yet! Just remember what happened to Steven Kruijswijk in the Giro d'Italia...

Replays show that Sagan won that by a slender tyre length... That's his third win of the race for the world champion.

VICTORY FOR PETER SAGAN! The Tinkoff rider threw his bike forward and just managed to pip his Norwegian rival.

Under the flamme rouge as they come to the top of the climb - it's flat from here and it's just a group of 30 riders - the yellow jersey is there.
1.2km
Degenkolb, Sagan and Barguil now on the front with Boasson Hagen behind.
1.5km
Navardauskas giving chase... they've done the cobbles now...
1.8km
Vanmarcke and Van Avermaet are there too and it's Vanmaecke who goes long!

It's strung out ahead of this climb - and here they go! Sagan and Boasson Hagen are near the front.

Now LottoNL-Jumbo on the front ahead of IAM. Here come the cobbles!
4km
Over some cobbles and tramlines and they then zip down a narrow, twisting descent... very exciting course this is.
5km
The pack has blown apart. Costa is about to be caught - and that's it. IAM Cycling leading the pack with three riders - the Swiss team putting on a good show.
6km
Just eight seconds now and it's Dimension Data leading the chase with Trek Segafredo edhing ahead now.

Another name to throw into the mix is Dylan Groeneweger or perhaps Sep Vanmarcke of LottoNL-Jumbo. They're near the front now.

Still 10 seconds for lone ranger Rui Coste but it surely won't be enough - especially with that cobbled climb up into Bern city centre.

Costa has 18 seconds but it's coming down now as BMC take it up. They're a Swiss team and have Van Avermaet so will be super motivated for the finish.
