Ewan (Lotto Soudal) picked his way through the maelstrom of riders in the sprint, emerging at the last possible moment to claim his second Tour de France 2020 stage victory - he now has a total of five during his career. 

In doing so, Ewan avenged the result from Stage 10, where he felt that he left his sprint a little late.

We were given a behind-the-scenes look at the commentators calling the thrilling finale to the 167-kilometre stage from Châtelaillon-Plage to Poitiers.

"Caleb's bursting through, Bennett in green, Sagan with the elbows ..." Keenan said. 

"Ewan gets it!" McEwen said.

"It's Caleb Ewan - if I had to put money on it, it would be every chip on Caleb Ewan. He knows it."

The Tour de France continues tonight with Stage 12, the longest of this year’s race, a 218-kilometre course similar to an Ardennes classic from Chauvigny to Sarran. Watch the race on SBS On Demand and the SBS ŠKODA Tour Tracker from 7:40pm (AEST), with television coverage starting from 9:30 (AEST) on SBS.
