Tour de France 2014 results and standings, Stage 19: Navardauskas gives Lithuania a win

Ramunas Navardauskas became the first Lithuanian to win a Tour stage.

A late crash took out some of the front of the Tour de France pack in stage 19, but Ramunas Navardauskas was able to avoid the crash and finish with a win, marking the first time a Lithuanian has won a stage at the Tour.

This stage, a 208.5-kilometer stretch from Maubourguet Pays du Val d'Adour to Bergerac, was a fat, less strenuous stretch after a lengthy portion on the mountains.

Though Navardauskas was the winner on this day, Vincenzo Nibali maintained his lead on the field, and he is now 7 minutes and 10 seconds ahead of second place Thibaut Pinot.
