Bradley Wiggins will ride into Paris as the first British winner of the Tour de France after a superb final time trial in Chartres. Wiggins completed the flat 53.5km individual time trial in a blistering time of one hour, four minutes and 13 seconds to beat Sky team-mate Chris Froome by 1:16. Spain’s Luis Leon Sanchez led the ‘race of truth’ for a long period before seeing his effort toppled by Froome and then Wiggins in quick succession. The Rabobank rider settled for third place, 1:50 slower than Wiggins. Italy’s Vincenzo Nibali (Liquigas) put in a solid performance to preserve his third place on the podium.
