STAGE 10 : LIMOGES - ISSOUDUN
A really flat stage so it should be a great chance for sprinters
Some important riders like Nuyens,Kroon and Devolder were in the breakaway
With only 10 km to go the breakaway was caught by the pack and the teams are forming their sprint trains
Our sprint train:Ignatiev,Steegmans and McEwen maybe Robbie can show his strength today
Haussler and Hushovd are ready to take another stage win
After a small circle the sprint begins and Haussler leads out Hushovd as every flat stage
Boonen is in front,Hushovd has no chance today his lead out man Haussler didn´t a good job today.McEwen makes his move
On the right side Breschel comes really fast and it seems that he can beat Boonen
That´s it Breschel wins in front of Boonen.McEwen can´t show his old strength,he becomes 5th
Stage results:
| 1 | Matti Breschel | Team Saxo Bank | 4h26'39 | | 2 | Tom Boonen | Quick Step | s.t. | | 3 | Romain Feillu | Agritubel | s.t. | | 4 | Francesco Chicchi | Liquigas | s.t. | | 5 | Robbie McEwen | Team Katusha | s.t. | | 6 | Thor Hushovd | Cervélo Test Team | s.t. | | 7 | Mark Cavendish | Team Columbia - HTC | s.t. | | 8 | Óscar Freire | Rabobank | s.t. | | 9 | Gerald Ciolek | Team Milram | s.t. | | 10 | Alessandro Petacchi | LPR Brakes Farnese Vini | s.t. | | 11 | Francesco Gavazzi | Lampre - N.G.C | s.t. | | 12 | Fabian Cancellara | Team Saxo Bank | s.t. | | 13 | Kurt Asle Arvesen | Team Saxo Bank | s.t. | | 14 | Heinrich Haussler | Cervélo Test Team | s.t. | | 15 | Greg Van Avermaet | Silence - Lotto | s.t. |

STAGE 11 : VATAN - SAINT-FARGEAU
Again a very flat stage which is made for sprinters
The breakaway
5 km to go the sprint trains are ready for the final.Our team is in a good position
It´s always the same,Haussler makes the pace in the pack and Hushovd is at his backwheel
Hushovd is in front after he passed Haussler.McEwen tries to follow Cavendish
Hushovd is still in the leading position and Robbie gives everything he has today but it seems to less for the best
Hushovd takes another stage win in front of Feillu and Cavendish.McEwen is 4th
Stage results:
| 1 | Thor Hushovd | Cervélo Test Team | 4h26'45 | | 2 | Romain Feillu | Agritubel | s.t. | | 3 | Mark Cavendish | Team Columbia - HTC | s.t. | | 4 | Robbie McEwen | Team Katusha | s.t. | | 5 | Mark Renshaw | Team Columbia - HTC | s.t. | | 6 | Gert Steegmans | Team Katusha | s.t. | | 7 | Matti Breschel | Team Saxo Bank | s.t. | | 8 | Óscar Freire | Rabobank | s.t. | | 9 | Alessandro Petacchi | LPR Brakes Farnese Vini | s.t. | | 10 | Tom Boonen | Quick Step | s.t. | | 11 | Gerald Ciolek | Team Milram | s.t. | | 12 | Mikhail Ignatiev | Team Katusha | s.t. | | 13 | Heinrich Haussler | Cervélo Test Team | s.t. | | 14 | Francesco Gavazzi | Lampre - N.G.C | s.t. | | 15 | Mirko Lorenzetto | Lampre - N.G.C | s.t. |

STAGE 12 : TONNERRE - VITTEL
Maybe McEwen can get a great result today because it´s another flat stage
 Again Nuyens was in today´s breakaway
We couldn´t form a really good sprint train today so Steegmans had to take another backwheel.He took Feillu´s!
4km before the finish it looks quite good for us;Hushovd is ready for the next coup
The sprint begins and Cavendish makes a terrible move.Hushovd cannot counter that.McEwen has to follow Mark prompt if he wants to win today´s stage
Cav is still leading....McEwen can reduce his arrears to Mark and Petacchi
Omg this will be a really close finish.Robbie is coming faster than a flush now
But in the end it´s Cavendish who takes the stage win.McEwen becomes second in front of Petacchi.But however great stage by Robbie.Maybe he can get his stage win another time
But there were also bad events today:
Klöden....
....Valverde.....
.....Fränk Schleck and Gomez Marchante were involved in a horrible crash 10 km before the finish.All of them lost a lot of time in the overall
Stage results:
| 1 | Mark Cavendish | Team Columbia - HTC | 4h35'21 | | 2 | Robbie McEwen | Team Katusha | s.t. | | 3 | Alessandro Petacchi | LPR Brakes Farnese Vini | s.t. | | 4 | Gerald Ciolek | Team Milram | s.t. | | 5 | Óscar Freire | Rabobank | s.t. | | 6 | Thor Hushovd | Cervélo Test Team | s.t. | | 7 | Gert Steegmans | Team Katusha | s.t. | | 8 | Matti Breschel | Team Saxo Bank | s.t. | | 9 | Romain Feillu | Agritubel | s.t. | | 10 | Tom Boonen | Quick Step | s.t. | | 11 | Francesco Gavazzi | Lampre - N.G.C | s.t. | | 12 | Heinrich Haussler | Cervélo Test Team | s.t. | | 13 | Kurt Asle Arvesen | Team Saxo Bank | s.t. | | 14 | José JoaquÃn Rojas | Caisse d'Epargne | s.t. | | 15 | Greg Van Avermaet | Silence - Lotto | s.t. | | ... | | 153 | Andreas Klöden | Astana Cycling Team | +3´24 | | 162 | Alejandro Valverde | Caisse d'Epargne | +4´04 | | 171 | José Angel Gómez Marchante | Cervélo Test Team | s.t. | | 176 | Fränk Schleck | Team Saxo Bank | s.t. |

Karpets should make a top5
And I also think you should maybe bring Napolitano to the vuelta, and Ignatiev |

I think you should bring: Vantomme, Bodrogi, Napolitano, Botcharov, Horrach and some of the younger Russians like Rovny and Galimzyanov |

I would suggest you bring Napolitano, Horrach, Serov, Klimov, Trussov and Rovny to the Vuelta.
And, yes, Roger's victory in Melbourne was just astonishing. That tiebreaker kept me on the edge of my seat.

STAGE 13 : VITTEL - COLMAR
Our team has to be very attentive at the last hill.There will be many attacks
Flecha was in today´s breakaway
And as we already expect Schleck did the first move
Carlos Sastre went after him
Then we had to react after Contador and Evans started the next attacks so Karpets started a counter attack
The leading group on the downhill with Karpets ,A.Schleck,Contador and Evans
This smaller group was still in front with 12 km to go
But only a few moments later a bigger group got a connection
The sprint began and there were still riders like Ciolek who lead the pack on the left side.Breschel is on his backwheel
Karpets prompt takes Breschel´s backwheel while Ciolek is still in front.And i ask myself where he still takes this energy from
And Ciolek takes a great stage win in front of Breschel and Karpets.Wow another podium for Vladimir and Katusha
Stage results:
| 1 | Gerald Ciolek | Team Milram | 5h00'27 | | 2 | Matti Breschel | Team Saxo Bank | s.t. | | 3 | Vladimir Karpets | Team Katusha | s.t. | | 4 | Pierrick Fédrigo | Bbox Bouygues Télécom | s.t. | | 5 | Cadel Evans | Silence - Lotto | s.t. | | 6 | Jens Voigt | Team Saxo Bank | s.t. | | 7 | Samuel Sánchez | Euskaltel - Euskadi | s.t. | | 8 | Andy Schleck | Team Saxo Bank | s.t. | | 9 | JoaquÃm RodrÃguez | Caisse d'Epargne | s.t. | | 10 | Thomas Voeckler | Bbox Bouygues Télécom | s.t. | | 11 | Lance Armstrong | Astana Cycling Team | s.t. | | 12 | Fabian Cancellara | Team Saxo Bank | s.t. | | 13 | Kurt Asle Arvesen | Team Saxo Bank | s.t. | | 14 | Yaroslav Popovych | Astana Cycling Team | s.t. | | 15 | Levi Leipheimer | Astana Cycling Team | s.t. |
