In a drama filled mountain top finish, Ricardo Ricco (Saunier Duval) won the sprint to the finish over Valverde and Cadel Evans. Schumacher had a lock on holding the yellow jersey until he touched wheels with the rider in front of him inside the last KM and went down in a heep. Kim Kirchen (Team Columbia) took over the race lead overall and now wears YELLOW.
My pick to win overall, Cunego, was a bit of a dog today as he lost another 20 seconds, but this finish was not his specialty, the long grueling climb....still, he is a bit of a worry at this point.
Kirchen takes yellowThomas Voekeler blew the polka dot jersey when he got crushed on the last climb of the day...which I particularly enjoyed.
And since the Real Estate biz is so slow at this time, I'm applying for my team car driver's license. I'll let you know how it goes.
