While the day belonged to Voeckler the Tour de France still belongs to Fabian Cancellara as the Swiss cyclist maintained his overall lead in the 26-stage race and will keep the yellow jersey heading into Stage 6 on Thursday. Cancellara’s holds a one second lead over seven-time champion Lance Armstrong.
