Saint-Gaudens, July 13 Austria's Patrick Conrad won Stage 16 of the Tour de France, beating Italian Sonny Colbrelli and Australia's Michael Matthews for his first stage win on the prestigious multi-stage cycling race.

Slovenian Tadej Pogacar, however, retained the yellow jersey given to the overall leader.

"It was quite a hectic day," Pogacar said after the 16th stage. "We started in super cold weather, then the fight for the breakaway was again really big in the first two hours until it settled down," he added.

Britain's Mark Cavendish, who is eyeing a record 35th stage win, finished 23 minutes behind the winner Conrad.
