Alright, so Jan beat Lance in a time trial for the first time every (or in a while). Has he beaten him in a mountain stage ever? I mean, by more than a handful of second? The last image I have of Jan in the mountains was of Lance staring back it him a) while blasting up L'Alpe D'Huez and b) while Jan flew off a descent in the Pyrennes.

Ullrich's otherwise got a pretty good record in the Pyrenees though. And while there's still some speculation that Lance is holding back deliberately trying to let the other climbers burn themselves out, I doubt he'd have left it til this late to build up a reasonable buffer. Ought to be an interesting race in the next few stages.
