and Colombian rider Jose Serpa (Team Diaquigiovanni) came in third.Both riders were 6 seconds behind stage winner
Ochoa. CSC's Fränk Schleck came in fourth, 17 seconds behind the stage winner.

lead. Garrido has an overall lead of 1' 06" on Gerardo Fernandez (San Luis Argentina).
Garrido's Palmeiras Resort-Tavira team controlled the race and the team didn't allow any break away groups so Garrido didn't
lose to much time at the final climb.
