Tour de France decider
2010 Tour de France contenders Luxembourg's Andy Schlek and Spain's Alberto Contadur will square off in the 52 km time trial (individual) to see who will win this year's tour tonight. Contadur has the yellow jersey and a 8 sec lead, but is the better time trialist, looking odds on to take the lead into the final stage into Paris. The leader is not attacked in the final stage by tradition, so whoever is in yellow will win the Tour.
Oh and Aussie Cadel Evans has been out of reckoning for many stages now, due to riding with an elbow fracture.
UPDATE: The penultimate stage saw Fabian Cancellara of Switzerland, the world time trial champion take the stage, but Alberto Contadur virtually sealed the Tour de France wil, by extending his 8 sec lead to 39 sec over Andy Schleck.
