Rui Alberto Costa

Tour de France 2013 stage 19 was won by Rui Alberto Faria Da Costa (Por) Movistar. The race was from Bourg d’Oisans to Le Grand Bornand.

The total distance of  204.5 km and climbed up five mountain passes. The stage 19 terrain map below tells the story. Costa the winner of this stage may not win the tour, but in my opinion would certainly deserve a great deal of respect for conquering one of the tougher stages of the race. Its not only the 5% to 8% demanding climbs, its also the difficult and technical wet descents that at extremely high speeds that make this a demanding and dangerous stage.

Ryder Hesjedal breaks away early to attempt a win alone. He keeps the distance for some time but riding with a broken rib did not help.  He is eventually caught by Rolland and they work together for a while. But Rui Alberto Costa saved himself for today and eventually caught them and took a lead. Costa shows his power and wins the stage.
