Le Tour de France Stage 4
Kloden is the first serious leader today
Contador is slower than him
Dekker is the best at the indermediate times
And he is the best at the finish too
Lovkvist is faster than Kloden but not faster than Dekker
A good result for Cadel, but not a fantastic one
Leipheimer looks good but he will not be the new leader
Menchov can't beat his team-mate
Finaly someone is faster than Dekker at the intermediate times. It's Fabian Cancellara
Rogers is second, behind Dekker
Can't say the same thing about Gerdemann...
It looks like Cancellara will win today and get the yellow jersey. He has the best time at the finish now.
Speaking about the yellow jersey. Eisel is starting the race
A good result by Hincapie too
Kirchen caught Ciolek even he started 2 minutes behind him
But still that didn't helped him very much. Almost 3 minutes slower than Cancellara at the finish
This was the only day in this year's Tour for Eisel
