CSC's Fränk Schleck conceded 2'09 to today's winner Koldo Gil in stage 6, which finished in La Punt. The time loss didn't cost him any places on GC, as he is still in sixth overall. But instead of being 16 seconds behind yellow, he is 2'27 back.
"Fränk probably should've been up front with Gil, Ullrich and Jaksche in order to get on the podium, but he simply didn't have it in him," said team director Dan Frost to team-csc.com. "He said they were too fast for him, but we'll have to wait and see – tomorrow is another day.
