At the Fausto Coppi-Louison Bobet monument: Bernard Thévenet, Bernard Hinault, Eddy Merckx and Tour boss Christian Prudhomme.

Andy Schleck took off on the Izoard and wasn't seen until the finish.

Alberto Contador did a little work chasing Andy Schleck, but it was Cadel Evans who put spent the afternoon in the wind.

Thomas Voeckler leads Cadel Evans and Frank Schleck.

Near the top Contador blew.

Andy Schleck wins. What a great ride!

Cadel Evans finishes with Ivan Basso behind him.

Voeckler keeps the yellow jersey for another day.
