Pierrick Fedrigo has won the 15th stage of the Tour de France by leading a two-man final breakaway. Bradley Wiggins looked set to retain the overall lead as he kept pace with his rivals in the main pack trailing more than 10 minutes behind.
The 158.5-kilometer (99-mile) route from Samatan to Pau had a mostly flat layout that might favor a sprint finish - but teams with strong sprinters didn't lay chase of the escapees.
