The crowds watching the Tour de France may have mistaken Ireland's Sam Bennett for points specialist Peter Sagan on the road yesterday, but that won't bother the Carrick-on-Suir rider, who held on to the green jersey yesterday. 

Alexey Lutsenko won stage six from Le Teil to Mont Aigoual, with Englishman Adam Yates grew a little more comfortable in the yellow jersey after successfully coming through his first day as the leader of the Tour de France.
