Stage 9 was run in very hot conditions and finished in Ussel after a selective day over the climbs of Corrèze. A strong breakaway formed early and stayed clear into the finale.
Mathieu van der Poel made the decisive move on the final climbs and held off Tobias Halland Johannessen and Tom Pidcock in a sprint from a four-rider lead group. The peloton, including several overall contenders, arrived a few seconds later.
