A day after blowing his lead in the Tour de France by finishing 8 minutes behind and dropping out of the Top Ten, Floyd Landis crushed the field today embarking on a solo break with 130km left to finish 5:42 ahead of the stages second place rider and jump into 3rd overall only 30 seconds behind.

Landis, the favorite to win going into the mountains was giving no chance of even placing on the podium. Now, the American, the best time trialer left standing has to be considered a serious contender (and once again the favorite) for the Yellow headed into Paris.
