Piepoli hits heights for Italians
LEONARDO PIEPOLI continued Saunier Duval's domination of the mountains in the Tour de France as the Hautacam summit played havoc with the yellow jersey on stage ten.
The 36-year-old climber was followed up the 1520-metre climb by team-mate Juan Jose Cobo, to register a third stage victory for the Italian team.
CSC's Frank Schleck came in third, 28 seconds behind Piepoli and Cobo, but Silence-Lotto's Cadel Evans, one minute and 49 seconds behind Schleck, will wear the yellow jersey when the peloton leaves Lannemezan tomorrow.
