It seems everyone is trying to make it into an escape or trying to chase an escape down...
This is the day's escape - Thomas Voeckler leads five men away...
HTC and Danny Pate are chasing for HTC and Matthew Goss - but this is also a hilly stage made for someone like Tony Martin...
Thomas de Gendt is also in the escape - and quite clearly the most determined of them all...
Remi di Gregorio lieads the escape through a twisty descent - they are hanging on to a four minute lead...
Matthew Goss descends as well, but the race-leader is not feeling very well right now...
HTC chase anyway - they have a lot to go for in this race - and they are keeping the escape within striking distance...
Daniel Lloyd and Garmin replace HTC at the front as the hills begin...
De Gendt leads the quintet with formidable class - he could take back his race-lead today..!
Team Sky has put Xavier Zandio at the head of the chasing peloton - is there something about to happen..?
Linus Gerdemann is working hard for Maxime Monfort just behind the head of the peloton...
Levi Leipheimer and Bradely Wiggins are in the chase as well - but it's Friday's time trial they are thinking about...
Liquigas takes over the chase - these are anxious times for the overall favourites...
Meanwhile, De Gendt and his mates are proving very hard to chase down - they have one-minute with 10-kilomeres to go...
Rabobank and Radio Shack join the chase - yes, the peloton is getting desperate..!
Oui, Yes! Thomas Voeckler wins stage four..!
Heinrich Haussler takes fifth place at about 15-seconds - and wonders what might have..!
