Stage 3 - June 25: Saint-Salvy-de-Balma - Saint-Gaudens, 206 km

Voigt stays in the lead

With one stage to go in the Route du Sud, German Jens Voigt (Credit Agricole) remains 1'37 in advance of Lithuanian Raimondas Rumsas (Fassa Bortolo) and 1'38 in front of Andrei Kivilev (Cofidis) on the general classification. Today's 206 kilometre stage was won by Jean Delatour's Laurent Roux, who preceded Kivilev, Francisco Mancebo (iBanesto.com), Voigt and Benoît Salmon (Ag2r) by 35 seconds.

The stage from Saint-Salvy-de-Balma to Saint-Gaudens started with a tailwind, and there were several attacks at the beginning. Matteo Tosatto (Fassa Bortolo), Stéphane Auge (Festina), Dariusz Baranowski (iBanesto) and Michael Blaudzun (CSC) went clear after 27 kilometres. They managed a maximum lead of 4'35, but were caught with more than 50 kilometres to go.

On the last climb, the col de Miramont, five riders (Roux, Voigt, Kivilev, Salmon, and Mancebo) established a break on the peloton. Roux counter-attacked over the top of the climb to go on to win the stage solo.

Frenchman Jimmy Casper (FdJ), who won stage 2a, abandoned after a fall.

Voigt will have to try and maintain his lead in tomorrow's tough 181 km finale that finishes atop the steep Plateau de Beille climb.
