Davis to keep trying

Liberty Seguros rider Allan Davis says that he will continue trying to win a stage all the way to Paris. The Australian sprinter was part of a large breakaway group which was clear for much of today's leg of the race, but missed out when the move split inside the final 50 kilometres. He ended the stage 3'14 down in tenth place.

"I was unlucky today but I feel very strong, and don't want to finish this Tour without achieving my goal of a stage win," he said.
