Ireland’s Dan Martin has moved up to 15th in the overall classification at the Tour de France.

The Quick-Step rider finished 3rd on Stage 3 yesterday behind World Champion Peter Sagan.

The sprinters are likely to be to the fore once more when the peloton arrives in the eastern French town of Vittel.

Geraint Thomas wears the leader’s yellow jersey when they depart from the Luxembourg town of Mondorf-les-Bains.
