@ NTTHRASH: I don't know 
@ Schleck96: Indeed, he is! He must feel very great! 
Found some time to do another stage, so stage 11 will come up in a few minutes!

STAGE 11
PRE-RACE
Alberto: I'm unstoppable! I got the yellow jersey now, but the gap isn't big enough yet. I will attack and gain much time!
Chris: I will do everything to get the yellow jersey back! I will win!
188km to go
This is the first day without Chris Froome in the yellow jersey. He traded his jersey for the green one. Alberto Contador has the yellow jersey now after 6 stage wins! The local cyclist still wears the mountain jersey.
98km to go
A boring first part of the race. Froome won both the intermediate sprint and the mountain sprint. The riders are now facing a downhill which will bring them to the foot of the Col du Grand Colombier.
41km to go
We are at the top of the Col du Grand Colombier, where Froome takes some mountain points. Nobody decided to attack on this hill, but maybe on the next?
25km to go
We are now starting at the final climb of today, and there is an attack straight away! Chris Froome is trying to get his yellow jersey back. It's still a long way to go, but you never know!
18km to go
The last climb of today is done, with Froome leading 30 seconds over Contador. A downhill to Bellegarde-sur-Valserine is the only thing left now!
5000m to go
Contador did not manage to close the gap down, because Froome is still 30 seconds in front of him. Meanwhile, we lost contact with the local cyclist. We don't know where he is and if he will finish inside the time limit.
0m to go
Chris Froome wins today's stage and takes back the yellow jersey! He broke Alberto Contador's winning streak. He comes in 34 seconds behind the Brit, who is very happy!. The local cyclist got in around 7 minutes behind the winner. He had a tough day, but he's still in the competition!

Froome: Sure you can take the stage wins but if you touch my yellow then we are going to have a problem

STAGE 12
PRE-RACE
Alberto: NOOO, Froome got the jersey. I will do everything to get it back!
Chris: Yellow sweet yellow, i'm on fire!
Local cyclist: I hope I can do this all in time!
140km to go
The toughest day yet so far. 2 HC mountains, including a finish in La Toussuire (first category). We will see some excitement in this short, but hard stage. The question of today: Will the local cyclist survive?
79km to go
We're already past the first mountain of today. Neither Alberto Contador nor Chris Froome decided to attack at the Col de la Madeleine, where the Spaniard grabbed some mountain points. He did the same thing at the intermediate sprint. Behind the car we can see the local cyclist, still managing to stay with the two!
56km to go
It's snowing at the top of the Col de la Croix-Fer, where Contador gets even more points for the polka dot jersey. That jersey is worn by the local cyclist, who is still within a minute of the two. Great performance!
35km to go
He can even stay close to them at the Col du Molard, where the Spaniard gets even more points! There is only a downhill left before the start of the final climb.
10km to go
We are just on the final climb of today, when Alberto Contador attacks! Chris Froome can go with him, so that attempt failed.
5000m to go
Alberto Contador attacks again! Will he succeed this time?
3000m to go
No, he failed again! Meanwhile, we have lost contact whit the local cyclist, but he has been reported around 3 minutes behind them, so he's okay!
2000m to go
Contador again, but now he can't even get a small gap! He's waisting energy!
1000m to go
We are going to sprint, ladies and gentlemen! Alberto proved that he is the better sprinter earlier this tour, but that was because he got a lead-out by Chris. Will it be the same this time?
0m to go
No, because Contador didn't get a lead-out. But he does win it this time! Froome must be very disappointed now! The local cyclist got in 5 and a half minutes behind them, a great performance from him!

@ Waghlon, Cycleman123, FreitasPCM & mvhoogdalem: He's happy he got some fans and teams chasing him!
@ Ian Butler: They are, but maybe in the Pyrenees
@ mvhoogdalem: He has the yellow jersey, so he didn't need to ride in front all day
@ krisa & Trout80: They heard you both!
Stage 13 coming up shortly!
