Tour du Haut Var podium history

Saturday, February 21: 180 km.

It's nice to see Levi Leipheimer up near the top after his tough, tough 2003. And this was no easy field. Further on down the results are Bettini, Camenzind, Chavanel, Brochard and Bodrogi. I hope this bodes well for a good season for him.
