With the Tour de France finishing yesterday in all its splendour under the watchful gaze of the Arc de Triomphe and with the Place de la Concorde at its base. The Australian Cadel Evans took the Yellow Jersey in Saturday's solo time trial which secured him the win over Andy Schleck.
The FDJ Team had a busy Tour with a rider involved in almost every breakaway of the competition. Here's a round up of the final 3 stages and the final classification results:
STAGE 19 - Modane Valfréjus to Alpe-d’Huez 109.5 km
