Joao Almeida (Team UAE) won the penultimate stage of the Tour de Suisse, while French hope, Kevin Vauquelin (Arkea B&B) hung on to his slender overall lead. To decide it will be on Sunday's decisive stage - a 10.1 kilometer uphill ITT.
"Really disappointed, we did a perfect job, we handled the last two climbs well. I may have panicked a bit (on the attack). Tomorrow? Anything goes, it's going to be a battle against myself. I'm planning on feeling unwell at the finish."
