Alaphilippe stripped of yellow jersey by Tour de France jury


Tour de France leader Julian Alaphilippe was stripped of the yellow jersey on Wednesday after being handed a time penalty for illegally receiving provisions near the end of Stage 5. British rider Adam Yates was moved to first place in the revised general standings after Alaphilippe was docked 20 seconds. Yates now tops the standings with a three-second lead over Primoz Roglic.
