The Tour de France stage 18 TV schedule is listed below as Versus continues live coverage of the 2,149 mile event on Thursday, July 23. It was a close race for the stage 17 win yesterday as Frank Schleck, Alberto Contador and Andy Schleck fought to the finish.  Frank Schleck was able to pull ahead and finish just ahead of Contador.  So Contador will enter stage 18 still wearing the yellow jersey, for the third straight stage.  He currently holds a 2:26 overall lead over the second place Andy Schleck, and a 3:25 lead over Frank Schleck.

Lance Armstrong lost a bunch of time on the overall lead as he finished 2:18 behind the leaders in stage 17, putting himself 3:55 behind his Astana teammate Contador for the overall lead.

Stage 18 will be an individual time trial over 24.8 miles (40 km) through Annecy.

Most cable providers now carry the Versus channel and stage 18 coverage starts at 8:30 a.m. EST with replays throughout the day.

Still think Lance can win?…poll results may change now with him 3:55 behind…
