"textContent": "The Tour of Hungary was hit with horrific weather on its Queen Stage which had already been shortened before the start. However, the organisers were forced to make another change late in the day due to the dangerous conditions.\n\nYves Lampaert and Kelland O'Brien were worst affected, disappearing under the guardrail after sliding out on the rain-soaked descent that was due to be visited once more in the third of the finishing circuits. Both riders were able to resume the race, but the jury took the last-minute decision to cancel the final lap, which left the breakaway to contest the finish, now just 5 km away.\n\nSwedish time trial talent Jakob Söderqvist took his chance, dropping both Adrián Benito (Polti-VisitMalta) and Samuele Zoccarato (MBH Bank CSB) to take the stage and overall lead in very strange circumstances. Benito held on to finish second, and Luke Plapp fought to third from the favourites group.\n\n**Stage 4 results:**\n\n 1. Jakob Söderqvist (Lidl-Trek) 2:58:08\n 2. Adrián Benito (Polti-VisitMalta) +0:32\n 3. Luke Plapp (Jayco-AlUla) +0:41\n 4. Junior Lecerf (Soudal-QuickStep) st.\n 5. Benoît Cosnefroy (UAE Team Emirates-XRG) st.\n\n\n\n**GC after Stage 4:**\n\n 1. Jakob Söderqvist (Lidl-Trek) 13:27:45\n 2. Benoît Cosnefroy (UAE Team Emirates-XRG) +0:40\n 3.
