Alberto Contador was back in the leader's jersey after a commanding performance in the long time trial on stage 14. He finished third on the day, but more importantly, put in huge time gaps against his GC rivals. Interestingly enough, until the crash yesterday, Contador had never lost the leader's jersey in any grand tour once he put it on, keeping his lead to win the overall. The only times before yesterday he "lost" a jersey were when two of them were stripped as part of his doping suspension for clenbuterol, losing the yellow jersey for the 2010 Tour de France and the pink jersey for the 2011 Giro d'Italia.
