"My wounds and the heat meant that there was no end to this step," says Sagan on his own site. "It was one of the most painful and difficult days I've ever seen in my career."
The 28-year-old BORA-hansgrohe from Slovakia is still suffering from the injuries he sustained at the 17 th stop of last Wednesday when he descended on the descent of the second climb.
Sagan has already won this Tour three times and also won the points classification, but he has to run the Tour de France to get the green jersey.

This was not an option for Sagan to descend into the queen. "That would not have been fair for my team, which has remained two hundred kilometers today, and we are already very close to Paris, but if it had been a classic, I would have given up. "
Sagan needs two more to watch the Tour rounds to earn the Tour points standings for the sixth time in his career, although this is not normally a problem.
On Saturday, there is an individual time trial on the program and on Sunday the Tour de la France traditionally closed with a flat lap in Paris.
