Ryder Hesjedal chases after Ignatiev, he seems to be working for teamate Thor Hushovd...

GARMINTDF

  • A true summer landscape of lavender watches the Tour fly across Provence...
  • The pace is fast - too fast for escapes like Sylvain Chavanel's to succeed...
  • Juan Antonio Flecha attacks - and fails to stay away...
  • Philippe Gilbert tries an attack with Tony Martin - and that fails too..!
  • Remy Di Gregorio has a go, but that will fail as well...
  • Team Sky chase another escape down - they have a plan of their own today..!
  • Levi Leipheimer is neither attacking nor getting dropped - he's just suffering somewhere in the peloton..!
  • Ten men have finally got away - and Boasson-Hagen and Martin are leading the way..!
  • Fabian Cancellara can relax at last, and put on some warmer clothes now the escape has gone...
  • Martin is helped push the escape to a six-minute lead with 50-kilometres to go...
  • BMC start to wind up the chase pace in the pouring rain...
  • Ignatiev has attacked from the ten-man escape on the last climb above Gap...
  • Ryder Hesjedal chases after Ignatiev, he seems to be working for teamate Thor Hushovd...
  • Hesjedal has attacked, caught Ignatiev and heads to the last five-kilometres of the ascent...
  • Five minutes later, Alberto Contador has started attacking..!
  • Contador attacks again and again - only Cadel Evans and Sammy Sanchez can stay with him..!
  • Evans now has a go, and Contador's face shows concern at his rival's strength...
  • Thor Hushovd wins into Gap to take his third stage-win in the Tour..!
  • Thomas Voeckler finishes behind the Evans-Contador-Sanchez trio, he's still in Yellow but has lost some time today...
  • Andy Schleck finishes over one minute down on his overall rivals - his Tour chances are slipping away in the rain...
