De \u00f8gede lidt p\u00e5 nedk\u00f8rslen, men lige s\u00e5 snart de kom ned p\u00e5 det flade stykke ind mod m\u00e5l, fik Lampre, Rabobank og RadioShack sat turboen p\u00e5, s\u00e5 med lidt over fire kilometer tilbage af etapen, var der samling igen og det hele skulle dermed afg\u00f8res i en massespurt.<\/p>

I spurten lykkedes det Rabobank holdet at ødelægge det hele for sig selv. Da Luis Leon Sanchez som sidste hjælperytter slog ud til højre med 200 meter tilbage, slog han lige ud i Oscar Freire var ved at starte sin spurt i selvsamme side. Den tredobbelte verdensmester måtte derfor lige stoppe lidt, inden han igen begynde sin spurt. Luis Leon Sanchez var dog ked af sin fejl, så han valgte at give sin holdkammerat et skub, og det er dette Freire efterfølgende bliver diskvalificeret for. Dermed kunne Francesco Gavazzi (Lampre-ISD) tage sejren foran Kristof Vandewalle (Quickstep Cycling Team) og John Gadret (AG2R).
Nicki Sørensen viste endnu engang god form, da han kom i mål på 17. pladsen i det stærkt reducerede felt. Også Chris Anker Sørensen sad med i gruppen og skal i morgen forsøge at køre en god enkeltstart, så han kan bevare sin fornuftige placering i klassementet. Saxo Bank-SunGard holdet satser yderligere på, at Richie Porte, som både har kæmpet med sygdom og formen, er klar til at gøre efter etapesejren på den 24 kilometer lange kamp mod uret.
Hele 11 ryttere kan i teorien stadigvæk tage den samlede sejr i Baskerlandet, da der kun er 18 sekunders forskel fra Joaquim Rodriguez (Katusha) på førstepladsen til Andy Schleck (Leopard Trek) på 11. pladsen. Den største favorit til at vinde både etapen og løbet er dog tyskeren Andreas Klöden, som lige nu ligger toer samlet.
