Britain's Alex Dowsett has taken the overall lead in the Tour de l'Avenir in France after former leader Taylor Phinney suffered a heavy fall.
Dowsett (Great Britain) was second overall behind leader Phinney (USA) going into the third day of the under-23s event. Phinney crashed in the final 20km of the stage as a result of the wet, slippery conditions allowing former Trek-Livestrong team-mate Dowsett to take the helm in the overall classification.
