2KM to go

With two kilometers to go, it's Contador and Rasmussen at the front.

Rasmussen is asking Contador to do the work and he said he would give him the stage win if he worked at the front.

It seems like Contador has agreed to do so and will likely take the stage win. That's just what I surmise.

They're both taking turns with 1.5KM left in the stage.

Leipheimer and Cadel Evans are in pursuing groups and will likely not lose too much time today.
