Sam Bennett (Bora-Hansgrohe) claimed his first victory of the season on the final stage of the Vuelta San Juan race in Argentina.

If Tuesday’s stage of Paris-Nice belonged to Carrick-on-Suir man Sam Bennett after he claimed a stunning victory, yesterday’s was very much about Dan Martin as he climbed right into contention for the overall.

Nicolas Roche is hoping to play his part in defeating Chris Froome at this year’s Tour de France.
