La seconda cronometro individuale del Tour de France 2012 (Bonneval-Chartres, 53,5 km) ha regalato un’altra dimostrazione di forza e bravura di Bradley Wiggins. Come ci si poteva immaginare, il capitano del Team Sky ha dominato una prova a lui congeniale, infliggendo più di un minuto al secondo classificato, il compagno Chris Froome, ad una media di 50 km/h.
Lo squadrone Sky rafforza così le prime due posizioni della generale e domani sul podio di Parigi i due potranno festeggiare insieme un Tour quasi perfetto. Vincenzo Nibali (Liquigas-Cannondale), terzo in classifica, ha disputato una crono un po’ sotto le aspettative, giungendo a 3’38″ dalla maglia gialla. A lui vanno comunque i complimenti per ciò che ha fatto vedere in salita. Buone invece le prove dello spagnolo della Rabobank Luis Leon Sanchez (oggi 3°), Peter Velits (Omega Pharma-Quick Step) e Tejay Van Garderen (BMC Racing Team). Per la BMC la delusione è arrivata da Cadel Evans, arrivato a 5’54″ dal vincitore, che chiude la generale al 7° posto. Una citazione la merita anche Thibaut Pinot (FDJ-BigMat): al suo primo Tour è arrivato 10° nella generale e ha vinto una tappa.

Domani il Tour chiuderà con la consueta passerella sugli Champs-Élysées, con la frazione da Rambouillet a Parigi (120 km). L’interesse è tutto rivolto alle ruote veloci, in particolare vedremo se Mark Cavendish (Sky) riuscirà ad eguagliare Peter Sagan e André Greipel (Lotto-Belisol) nel numero di successi di tappa (2 per il britannico, 3 per lo slovacco e il tedesco). Questo il profilo della 20ª tappa:
