As I said yesterday: Jan is back!

Including the time bonus Jan Ullrich is now 15 sec behind Lance.

Nice tactical move on Ullrich's part. Nice recovery on Lance's part - blew by Vino and put 10
seconds into him.

Another strong and impressive performance. The TT gloves are off; the climbing gloves are off. Looks
like it's Ullrich's race to lose now.

That recovery underscores Lance's incredible competitiveness and gives hope that there's a lot of
race to come.

If you watched the OLN coverage, you see Ullrich and Vinokourov move up the road with about 2 km to
go, and Lance unable to cover and looking broken barely hangin on Basso's (or was it Miguel's?)
wheel. You're thinking: Ullrich's in yellow, Lance might drop to 3rd. Holy [censored].

Then the camera moves to the finish line. Sastre takes the stage, then there comes Ullrich and
Zubeldia battling for 2nd, Ullrich takes the bonus, then - HUH? - Lance flying around the corner
to take 4th.

What the OLN cameras did not show: Lance passing Miguel, Basso, and Vinokourov. How the hell did he
do it? Where did he find the gas?

Showed something. Maybe not enough the beat the German by Paris, but he didn't fold. It looked like
he did, but he didn't.

The cameras are French, every station gets the same feed from them.
