Belgian rider Thomas de Gendt won the mountainous fourth stage of the Tour of Catalonia while Nairo Quintana took the overall lead after surpassing his title rivals in the Pyrenees on Thursday. De Gendt got the win for his Lotto Soudal team after finishing the 172-kilometer (107-mile) route from Baga to Porte Aine that featured two special-category summits in just under five hours. Quintana was next up the snowy ascent, crossing over a minute later after he dropped Alberto Contador and Chris Froome among the other favorites to take the lead from Daniel Martin.
