Chris Froome extends Tour de France lead over Alberto Contador
CHORGES, France, July 17 () -- Overall leader Chris Froome, using a strategic change of bicycles late in the race, claimed Wednesday's individual time trial at the Tour de France.Alberto Contador, continuing a furious attempt to close the General Classification gap with Froome, had an 11-second advantage on Froome at the day's second checkpoint.But just before that spot 12.4 miles from the finish, Froome opted to change to a more aerodynamic bike, a decision that may have been the difference in the stage.Froome covered the final leg of the stage in 12 minutes, 58 seconds, quick enough to end up 9 seconds better than Contador.Froome extended his overall lead to 4:34 over Contador, who moves into second place overall. Roman Kreuziger is third,[url=http://www.moncleroutleto.co.uk]moncler outlet[/url], 4:51 back of Froome, while Bauke Mollema, dropping from second to fourth, is 6:23 behind the leader.Froome's total time for the 19.9-mile run Wednesday from Embrun to Chorges was 51:33. It was his third stage win of this year's Tour de France and keeps him in the leader's yellow jersey for a 10th consecutive stage.Joaquin Rodriguez was third in the stage,[url=http://www.moncleroutleto.co.uk]moncler london[/url], 10 seconds back of Froome. Kreuziger came in fourth another 13 seconds off the pace while Alberto Valverde, who put up a strong early time, was fifth, 30 seconds behind Froome's time.The riders have a 107.2-mile challenge ahead of them Thursday with a route from Gap to Alpe-d'Huez that includes a Category 3 and two Category 2 climbs along with two climbs rated beyond categorization.
