Tour de Suisse. Stage 4. Magnus Cort is 6th in raining day

Stage 4 from Gansingen to Gstaad of 189,2 km was characterized by the bad weather and raining all day. In these conditions a daily break, which went away right from the start of the stage, has got a good advantage over 6 minutes, enough to stay in front until the finish line. The Dane Christopher Juul-Jensen was the only rider from the break, who could hold a small gap over the peloton, winning stage 4 after a solo attack on the descent of the last climb.
