Default Lanterne Rouge Competition

Last place on GC after stage 7:

176 Sébastien Joly (Fra) Crédit Agricole at 49.28 next to
last: 175 Davide Bramati (Ita) Quick Step-Davitamon 37.26
... 170 Erik Dekker (Ned) Rabobank 30.40

Eric Dekker tried hard today and successfully finished last
in the stage to threaten Joly. Maybe Dekker is saving his
energy for Alpe d'Huez ITT?

Results from CyclingNews.com -- where else?!

Don't you get it? He will be first to leave as the lowest
seed (as any red lantern would be). He *will* be first to
the top if he stays ahead of the next man. He won't have the
lowest time of the day. Give me a break.
