And Remco Evenepoel delivered on his promise. The Belgian stated that he would attack right from the beginning of the stage, and indeed, he did just that. In his attack, the Belgian brought along several strong cyclists, which could have characterized another successful breakaway in the stage, as seen in the 14th stage.

The breakaway group included: Remco Evenepoel (Soudal Quick-Step), Santiago Buitrago (Bahrain-Victorious), Lennard Kämna (BORA-hansgrohe), Nico Denz (BORA-hansgrohe), Rui Costa (Intermarché-Circus-Wanty), Christian Rodriguez (Arkéa-Samsic), Jonathan Caicedo (EF Education-EasyPost), Chris Hamilton (dsm-firmenich), Kenny Elissonde (Lidl-Trek), Jimmy Janssens (Alpecin-Deceuninck), Andreas Kron (Lotto Dstny), and Einer Rubio (Movistar).

In the peloton, thanks to the efforts of Jumbo-Visma, the time gap with the leading group fluctuated between 2:45 minutes and 3:00 minutes. Alpecin-Deceuninck was also leading on behalf of the sprint leader, Kaden Groves, who was still holding out hope for the bonus points at the Lekunberri finish.
