Sky controlled the sixth stage of the Critérium du Dauphiné between Saint-Alban-Leysse and Morzine. On the HC rated Col de Joux-Plane, Richie Porte led the peloton for most of the way reducing it to just ten riders including three other Sky riders - Chris Froome, Michael Rogers and race leader Bradley Wiggins. Colombian Nairo Quintana attacked a couple of km from the summit and increased his advantage on the descent to take the stage win. Cadel Evans also attacked on the descent but could only gain eight seconds on Sky who are now first, second, and fourth overall.
