FDJEUX.COM duo Baden Cooke and Bradley McGee made it a dream double for Australia after stage two of the Tour de France.

Cooke came home first in Sedan after a frantic sprint finish to claim his debut stage victory in the event, while McGee kept hold of the yellow jersey at the top of the standings.

The 25-year-old from Victoria beat Frenchman Jean-Patrick Nazan and Estonian Jaan Kirsipuu into second and third respectively in a tight finish with his bonus seconds helping to preserve his compatriot’s overall lead.
