1989 Tour de France Stage 17 - Fignon Retakes Yellow on Alpe d'Huez

Throwback to Stage 17 of the 1989 Tour de France, the 100-mile mountain stage that began in Briançon, climbed over Col du Galibier, Col de la Croix de Fer, and finished atop Alpe d'Huez. Greg LeMond was in yellow at the start, but Fignon attacked and dropped LeMond 4 km from the finish. Fignon crossed the finish in third place, behind Gert-Jan Theunisse and Pedro Delgado, while LeMond finished fourth, 1 minute 19 seconds behind Fignon. Laurent Fignon regained the overall lead, 26 seconds ahead of second-place Greg LeMond.

Transferred from a VHS recording of the 1989 Tour de France coverage. The recording was made on July 23, 1989.
