Mark Padun won stage seven of the Criterium du Dauphine on Saturday as Richie Porte moved into the overall lead.
A fine finish by Padun (Bahrain Victorious) saw the Ukrainian move to the front with around five kilometres of the 171.5km mountain stage from Saint-Martin-Le-Venoux to La Plagne to go.
He crossed the line 34 seconds ahead of Australia's Porte, while Miguel Angel Lopez (Movistar) and Jack Haig (Bahrain Victorious) were third and fourth respectively, a further nine seconds back.
Geraint Thomas came ninth, 59 seconds behind Padun with Alexey Lutsenko, who was wearing the yellow jersey, 10th at a minute behind the winner.
On terrain that didn't suit the sprinters, Irish time-trial specialist Ryan Mullen - pictured above - finished over 32 minutes down on Padun and the Trek-Segafredo rider sits 120th on the general classification.
Ahead of Sunday's finale, another mountain stage that runs 147km from La-Lechere-les-Bains to Les Gets, Porte is 17 seconds ahead of Lutsenko in the overall standings and 29 ahead of Thomas.
