Talentin Paret-Peintre produced a late sprint to get past Ben Healy and claim a stunning win on stage 16.
After a thrilling battle up the iconic Mont Ventoux climb, Healy looked set to claim his second win of this year's Tour as he emerged from the final bend in the lead.
But Paret-Peintre, 24, fought back to deny the Irishman and become the first French winner this year.
Jonas Vingegaard repeatedly attacked reigning champion Tadej Pogacar on the climb but the pair crossed together, meaning Pogacar maintains his overall lead.

England had 19-year-old Michelle Agyemang to thank as, And it was fellow substitute Chloe Kelly who sealed it even later on to spare them the drama of a penalty shoot-out. Despite the underwhelming performance, the simple fact is England are a game away from keeping their crown.
