The final card played by Team Sky was Mikel Nieve, once he could no longer hold the high pace on the 20% gradient, it was time for the two biggest names of the ProTour to fight it out for the overall. Chris Froome (Team Sky) wearing the blue points jersey (on loan from Contador), feeling the sting of getting dropped in Stage 3 by the Spaniard, Alberto Contador (Tinkoff Saxo) hit the front attacking hard striving to drop the pedal dancing two time Tour de France winner. Despite the severity of Froome's attack, it look like the two were going to go up the mountain pedal stroke for pedal stroke. I was quite surprise what happened as soon as I finished painting this watercolor.
