Tonight at 8p.m. cycling fans need to get to their television sets and watch the coverage of today's team time trials.
The live coverage of the race was exciting and dramatic to the very last second, no actually let me re-state that, the 100th of a second.
It looked for a few wild minutes like Lance Armstrong would snag the Yellow Jersey.
Team Astana with the talented trio of Armstrong, Alberto Contador and Levi Leipheimer rolled on big time to make the team time trial victory at Stage 4 - Montpellier 39 km.
But alas for Armstrong the win was not quite enough as Saxo Bank team Fabian Cancellara is in first place by less than one second. He will wear the the Yellow Jersey for a few more days. Armstrong's teamate Contador was only 19 seconds back in third spot.
Ligget and his partner Paul Sherwen speculated that either Armstrong or Contador would be wearing the Yellow Jersey come the weekend.
They also talked about which team Astana man Armstrong or Contador would take the lead as the team captain. This story will continue to build as the duo will likely soon become 1-2 and could stay there all the way to Paris.
On the primetime show tonight at 8p.m. there will be extensive interview's with Armstrong, Cancellara and Contador. There will also be a breakdown the exact time splits that were not available at the time the live show went off the air.
The primetime show will be anchored by Craig Hummer and Bob Roll with plenty of comments from Liggett and Sherwen.
