Racing | Tour De France | Stage 15

18:35 CEST   

Kohl finally has the polka dot jersey. Even though he missed yellow by just seven seconds.

What an exiting stage it was today. We now take a breather. Tomorrow is the second rest day. But Tuesday we go back onto the French roads, with more action from the Alps.

Hope you can join us again at the Cyclingnews live coverage.

See you Tuesday!

18:12 CEST   

Frank Schleck receives the yellow jersey! The second Luxemburger in this year's Tour, after Kirchen

18:03 CEST   

He's a better time trialist than Schleck and Kohl, so if he can limit his losses to them (and to Menchov, of course), then he could yet win this race.

18:02 CEST   

It's by no means all over for Evans. He's now out of yellow, and therefore won't have media pressure, or the burden of being watched as closely by his rivals. Could this be a blessing in disguise? Perhaps..

18:00 CEST   

Kohl is very disappointed at the finish, lying slumped over his bike. He's very strong, though, and could yet take yellow in this race.

He was third in the 2006 Dauphine and is confirming that talent now.

17:59 CEST   

Sastre is sixth overall, 49" back, with Kirchen 2'48" back in seventh. So there's five riders within 49" of yellow...it's still wide open..

17:59 CEST   

A cleaner Tour? It's certainly a very different style of racing to the past. Riders are grimacing, grinding, blowing up...it's exciting to watch and, it must be said, more credible.

17:58 CEST   

Schleck lead overall, seven seconds ahead of Kohl and a further second up on Evans. Menchov and Vande Velde are fourth and fifth, 38" and 39" back respectively...

17:57 CEST   

Cunego finishes 6'47 behind Gerrans.

Schleck is in yellow....

17:56 CEST   

Ok, we think it is Schleck...he crossed the line nine seconds ahead of Evans...
