Stage 18: Are we there yet?
No abandonments today!
Robert Forster of Gerolsteiner was the only straggler today, probably wearing himself out earlier in the stage, coming across the line last by 14 seconds.
There's no change from yesterday, though, in the last five overall placements.
Iker Flores, the Spaniard riding for Euskaltel-Euskadi, remains the Lanterne Rouge with a solid margin of 6:11.
Past Lanterne Rouge Leonardo Piepoli, Italian rider for Saunier Duval, is holding tight in twentieth position in the Tour de France. Let's hope he can hold that spot all the way to Paris.
