BRITAIN’S Bradley Wiggins remains hot on the heels of the overall leaders after yesterday’s ninth stage of the Tour de France.

Garmin rider Wiggins lies fifth, 46 seconds behind yellow jersey-holder Rinaldo Nocenti of the AG2R team, after all the leading contenders finished in the main pack.

Pierrick Fedrigo, of Bbox-Bouygues, out-sprinted Liquigas rider Franco Pellizotti to win the stage from St Gaudens to Tarbes.

Nocenti leads favourite Alberto Contador by six seconds, while seven-time winner Lance Armstrong is a further two seconds behind.
