That was Oscar Sevilla. I think (I HOPE!) Oscar was actually looking back to be sure that Mickael Rasmussen didn't catch Jan. Michael finished 4 seconds behind Oscar and Jan. Oscar was actually there to help Jan at the finish, and the two of them finished with the same time.

The T-Mobile non-team action that I was surprised about was in stage 14. Vino made a good effort to get away from the pack (which included all the elites -- Armstrong, Basso, Rasmussen, Ullrich, Kloden...). And Ullrich and Kloden were the ones to chase him down! I guess it COULD have been that were trying to join him, but it sure looked like it was self-defense rather than team support!
