CyclingWeekly: Vincenzo Nibali vented his frustration with Brad Wiggins today following his attack in the Tour de France's 10th stage to Bellegarde-sur-Valserine. "If he wants to be a great champion," Nibali said, "he has to have a little bit of respect for his rivals."

VeloNation: Bernaudeau believes team is turning things around.

Peloton: Evans - “We're really just at the midway point of the race here, and the second half…that's more my strength and consistency.” He indicated that one strategy was to key off the expected attacks by others in the top 10 who need to make up time in the mountains. Evans, 35, added that he’d also use his great experience to create his own openings.

VeloNews: If Cadel Evans doesn’t produce a Sky-cracking attack, this Tour de France is all but over. He knows it. Bradley Wiggins knows it. Everyone knows it. The question is, how will he do it?

CyclingNews: RadioShack-Nissan rider says he has lost too much ground.
