Menchov took it in front of Leipheimer. Landis third.

Will be interesting to see if Landis gets the yellow.

He just might.

Infact, I think he will make it :-)

I'm pulling for Dessel to maintain a couple o' seconds lead. Don't want Phonak working hard on these next flat stages...

The key number is 4:37. If Dessel is over that, Landis has yellow.

Landis picked up time on Rogers, Kloden, and Sinkewitz, in addition to Dessel. If Dessel still has the lead, it is probably <30 seconds.
