Wim Vansevenant is still the Lanterne Rouge going into the Alps. He is a comfortable six minutes behind the second to the last in the general classement.
After today’s stage (number 16 from Cuneo to Jausiers), Frank Schleck is now wearing the yellow jersey but he is only 7 seconds ahead of Bernard Kohl and 8 seconds ahead of Cadel Evans, former holder of the yellow jersey. The race continues to be a tight one. Tomorrow’s dreaded Embrun to Alpe d’Huez stage (see official Tour de France video below) will probably determine who will win the Tour. Stay tuned!
