Voigt wins after spring finish

Team CSC’s Jens Voigt won stage 13 of the Tour de France on Saturday after a sprint finish with Oscar Pereiro coming into Montelimar.

Voigt attempted to make a break with 1km remaining, but the Spanish Caisse D’Epargne riders closed him down, leaving a frantic dash for the line in the last 100 metres.

Sylvain Chavanel of Cofidis pipped Liquigas’ Manuel Quinziato to third place as the quartet led the field home.
