Vinokourov attack nets stage win

Controversial Kazakh Alexandre Vinokourov won the 13th stage of the Tour de France today.

Vinokourov, who returned from a two-year ban for blood doping last autumn, attacked on the day’s final climb, the 1.9-kilometre category three ascent of Saint-Ferreol, to win the 196km race from Rodez to Revel.
