Tour de France 2014: Nibali takes stage with might, Contador out

Monday July 14th, 2014 - Stage 10 takes riders in 161.5 kilometres from Mulhouse to La Planche des Belles Filles. After seven tough cols the finish is atop the last one, a climb with a steep 20%-section justy under the top. The ride is ripe with drama and heroics. Alberto Contador is forced to abandon with a fractured tibia and his opponent Vincenzo Nibali takes the stage after a glorious attack on La Planche des Belles Filles.

Saturday, July 14th, 2014- Bastille day, the day when all French riders will be hoping to pull off a stage win. It won't be easy today however given the mountaintop finish on La Planche des Belles Filles and six climbs in total. The GC men will also look to take time from their rival today. Bradley Wiggins took yellow here in 2012 and held it all the way to Paris.

Many will remember the stage La Planche des Belles Filles from the 2012 Tour. Not only because Froome won but mostly because he obviously out-powered his leader Wiggins. Froome was kept on a leash and 'Wiggo' won in Paris. Today riders face 6 cols to finish atop the feared La Planche des Belles Filles.
