 Neither dropped below 11th place overall heading into the stage 10 individual time trial , where the squad had three riders finish in the top ten . Cancellara 's fourth @-@ place ride was perhaps a disappointment , in that he finished a minute and 27 seconds slower than the stage winner Tony Martin , the rider seen as his chief rival for the world championships time trial . Fuglsang took sixth on the day and Monfort tenth , putting Fuglsang 12 seconds off the race lead in second place overall and Monfort sixth 59 seconds back . Both of them lost time in stage 11 , finishing in a group 27 seconds back of the group containing most of the race 's top riders , but both remained in the top ten overall . Both again fell down the standings in stage 14 on La Farrapona , a day when out of the first 50 riders no more than four finished together . Their overall positions reversed the next day on the storied Alto del Angliru . Monfort finished with a group that lost time to only six riders , while Fuglsang was a further minute and eight seconds down the road from his teammate . This left Monfort fifth overall and Fuglsang seventh , after Fuglsang had been the higher @-@ placed of the two for the entire race to that point . The next major mountain was Peña <unk> in stage 17 . Both riders were well off the pace , with Monfort finishing 19th and Fuglsang 31st . Monfort still held sixth overall with the result , but Fuglsang fell out of the top ten , down to 12th place . Fuglsang improved a place to 11th after stage 19 , when Wouter Poels , who had been ahead of him , finished six minutes behind the main field . Those were their final overall positions , with both Monfort 's sixth place and Fuglsang 's 11th representing the best such finishes for either of them in a Grand Tour . The day before the race ended , Bennati gave the team a second stage win , coming home first in a large sprint finish in stage 20 at Vitoria .
