Portuguese rider alone over the Col de la Croix Fry after long Pierre Rolland attack

Rui Costa (Movistar) escaped from a breakaway group to take his second victory of the 2013 Tour de France as he won the 19th stage, between Bourg-d'Oisans Le Grand-Bornand. The Portuguese rider, who had won the 16th stage just three days before, broke clear on the final, 1st category climb of the Col de la Croix Fry and caught and passed long distance breakaway Pierre Rolland (Europcar) soon afterwards. Costa was a minute clear of his nearest chaser, Andreas Klöden (RadioShack-Leopard) when he reached the top of the climb with just 13km to go, and managed to hold off the German on the wet descent to the finish.

Klöden kept up his chase, and finished in second place, 48 seconds behind Costa, with his RadioShack-Leopard teammate Jan Bakelants the best of the rest in third.

Behind the breakaway the Saxo-Tinkoff and Movistar teams had tried to put pressure on Maillot Jaune Chris Froome (Team Sky), but the British rider was never in any real difficulty and finished the stage with his overall lead intact.

"I'm really happy,” Costa said afterwards. “First thing, I have to thank [Ruben] Plaza and [José Joaquin] Rojas, my team-mates into the break, who helped me in everything. They left me fresh at the foot of the last climb so I only had to attack and win, and things went perfectly.

“It was basically the same strategy from the other day,” Costa explained, referring to his similar victory in Gap. “I had to wait for the last climb and make a move. Fortunately, my legs responded as good as they could do.

“I think this victory will bring much calmness to the team,” he added. “Since that day into the crosswinds, my goal was clearly going for stage wins; we had to forget about what happened, and we will really do, because I will remember this Tour by what happened afterwards: these two victories that make me so happy. Movistar is not only Nairo [Quintana] and me: there's Alejandro [Valverde], always up-front, and a huge team helping us out, doing a massive job you often don't see - we owe them everything we have.

“We'll be helping Nairo tomorrow - he's impressive. Let's see if we can get him safely into the podium.

“These two stages go to all the people supporting me from Portugal and all those ones always by my side,” Costa concluded.

The 204.5km stage was dominated by the breakaway from Rolland, who emerged from a huge breakaway group of more than 40 riders on the descent on the first climb of the day, the Cul du Glandon, with Ryder Hesjedal (Garmin-Sharp). The two of them worked together over the Col du Madelaine, and the descent that followed, but Rolland continued alone on the Col de Tamié that followed.

The Frenchman’s lead was gradually eroded by a reducing chase group over the Col de l’Épine that followed, and he was ultimately caught and passed by Costa, and then several others, on the final climb.

Costa continued to build his lead on the remains of the climb, and then soloed down the descent to take his third Tour stage, and his second in 2013.

Attacks from the gun as a quarter of the peloton escapes

Lars Bak (Lotto-Belisol) and Ion Izagirre (Euskaltel-Euskadi) attacked as the flag was dropped at the end of the neutral zone and, as the two of them pulled away, there was a battle to form the rest of the group that was to join them. Several attacks saw a group of more than 40 riders form on the approach to the foot of the Col du Glandon, which came after just 12km, and this mini-peloton made it up to the two leaders on the early slopes.

Hesjedal and Izagirre then broke clear of the rest - initially with Jérome Cousin (Europcar) - and began to leave the big group behind. The best placed rider in the group was Daniel Navarro (Cofidis), but he was 19’18” behind Froome in 13th place, and so was adjudged to be of no danger.

As Hesjedal led Izagirre over the top after 33.5km, they were 3’10” ahead of the chase group. Stage 18 winner Christophe Riblon (AG2R La Mondiale) outsprinted Moreno Moser (Cannondale) and Rolland for third place, and the three of them pulled away on the descent. The peloton eventually followed over the top 8’05” later.

The three counterattackers were joined by Damiano Cunego (Lampre-Merida) and Juan Antonio Flecha (Vacansoleil-DCM), and the five riders were gradually closing in on the two leaders. On the flat approach to the foot of the hors category Col de la Madeleine, however, the big group was catching up with the five counterattackers; as Hesjedal and Izagirre began the climb after 64.5km they were 1’35” ahead of the group of five, with the 31-rider group just 15 seconds further behind.

Rolland attacked just before the group of five was swallowed by the chasers. With 16km still to climb - with Rolland 1’10” behind, and the big group at two minutes - Hesjedal left Izagirre behind and set off alone.

Rolland soon passed Izagirre, and steadily reeled in Hesjedal as the climb went on, and caught the Canadian four kilometres from the top. Meanwhile, the big chase group behind them split into two, with 18 riders pulling clear of the others; of Rolland’s former companions, only Izagirre had made it into this first group, which was now 2’20” behind the two leaders.

As Team Sky still led the peloton, it was now more than 12 minutes behind.

Rolland took the points over the top of the Col, and the chasers were four minutes behind, as Hesjedal pulled Rolland down the descent.

Saxo-Tinkoff then began to lead the peloton over the top of the col, and onto the descent that followed. Stringing out the peloton, the Danish team began to pick up riders dropped from the big breakaway group. Other riders were able to rejoin the main chase group, but it was unable to make any progress on the two riders up ahead.

The chase closes in as Rolland goes it alone

By the foot of the descent the chase group was back up to 27 riders, and began to close the gap to the two leaders on the flat roads on the approach to the next climb. Euskaltel-Euskadi had three riders in the group with Izagirre and Romain Sicard doing the lion’s share of the chasing on behalf of Nieve. Through the intermediate sprint, in Albertville with 75km to go - as Rolland allowed Hesjedal to roll through to take the points - the group was 2’50” behind.

Shortly afterwards, however, Rolland punctured, which allowed the group to close to just two minutes as the duo approached the 2nd category Col de Tamié. Almost as soon as the climb began, Rolland left Hesjedal behind and set off alone. The Canadian was soon picked up by the chasing group, and was one of the first to be dropped.

At the top of the Col, with 61.5km to go, Rolland was still alone, after the short descent to the foot of the 1st category Col de l'Épine his lead had been cut to 1’15”, but the Frenchman began to open up the gap again as the climb began.

Saxo-Tinkoff began to lift the pace as the peloton hit the climb, still 10’10” back, and soon passed the struggling Hesjedal. The Danish team was putting many of Froome’s teammates into difficultly and, very soon, the Maillot Jaune had just Richie Porte and David Lopez for company.

At the top, with 39.5km to go, Rolland’s lead was up to two minutes, and the defending mountains jersey champion was now just one point behind Froome in the classification. Navarro was still in the group - and currently in virtual eighth place overall - and his Cofidis teammate Jérôme Coppel was working hard on the front of the group, and the gap to the lone leader began to fall slowly once again.

With the two Cofidis riders now were Alessandro De Marchi (Cannondale), Bart De Clercq (Lotto-Belisol), Marcus Burghardt and Amaël Moinard (BMC Racing), Bakelants and Klöden (RadioShack-Leopard), Alexandre Geniez (FDJ), Bardet, Jesus Hernandez (Saxo-Tinkoff), Nieve, Costa and Ruben Plaza (Movistar), Jose Serpa (Lampre-Merida), Robert Gesink and Lars Petter Nordhaug (Belkin), and Tom Dumoulin and Simon Geschke (Argos-Shimano).

Rolland’s lead was just 1’10” as he hit the foot of the 1st category Col de la Croix Fry with just under 25km to go, and, as the group hit the climb, Navarro attacked. The Cofidis rider was closed down, and went a second time, but most of the group was back with him before too long. The result of this flurry was to reduce Rolland’s advantage to just 55 seconds, and continued to fall as Coppel took up station on the front again.

Heavy rain suddenly began to fall on the race, which slowed the peloton’s chase as it continued down the descent. As the bunch started the climb it was 9’13” behind Rolland, which meant that Navarro was still more than eight minutes ahead.

Costa makes his winning move as Rolland flounders in the rain ahead of him

With 21km to go Costa attacked the group and began to close in on Rolland up ahead. Within little more than a kilometre the Portuguese winner of stage 16 had caught up with the Frenchman, who clung desperately to his wheel for a few hundred metres before watching him ride away.

Bakelants was the next to escape the chase group, pulling Nieve, De Clercq, Klöden and Navarro up to Rolland, but Costa was already 22 seconds clear as the Frenchman dropped out of the back of the group. Klöden hit the front, which put Nieve into difficultly, but Costa was getting further away. With four kilometres to climb he was 30 seconds clear, and still looking strong as the heavy rain continued to fall.

Saxo-Tinkoff was still leading the peloton, and had reduced Froome’s support to just Porte as the peloton continued to thin out. Alejandro Valverde (Movistar) then attacked from behind the Danish team, just before it reached the banner to announce five kilometres to the top of the climb, and was quickly followed by John Gadret (AG2R La Mondiale).

Contador was now in second position, with just Roman Kreuziger ahead of him.

Under the 15km banner, Costa’s lead was up to 50 seconds and still rising, and, as he rolled over the top of the col to start the 13km descent to the finish, he was 55 seconds ahead of Klöden, who had left the rest of the chasers behind.

Kreuziger’s pace had reduced the Maillot Jaune group to less than a dozen riders, but Froome still had Porte by his side and all of the other overall contenders were still present.

Valverde and Gadret soon caught up with Plaza, and the Movistar rider began to pace his captain up the climb, but the Kreuziger-led Maillot Jaune group was right behind them. As they were about to be caught Rodríguez attacked, and was followed by Contador and Quintana, but Froome followed as they joined up with Valverde and Gadret ahead.

Valverde sprinted up the climb and, as Quintana came past, the Spanish rider tried to block the others to prevent them from chasing his Colombian teammate. At this point the six riders arrived at the Col, however, and the pace immediately dropped, which saw Valverde and Gadret attack the descent.

Meanwhile Costa was inside the final three kilometres and the roads were drying considerably. Klöden was still a minute behind the Portuguese rider, while the next group of chasers were still at 1’30”.

Costa high-fived his directeur sportif in the team car beside him as he entered the final kilometre and, taking the final rise before the finish line, he sat up to cruise in and take his second victory of the race.

Saxo-Tinkoff was leading down the descent, but Froome was refusing to be intimidated, and Porte took over into the final kilometres and led his leader home safely. Navarro’s efforts, however, had lifted the Cofidis rider up to eighth overall, while Valverde re-entered the top ten, in ninth.
