Gesink claims 6th

ROBERT Gesink of the Netherlands won the grueling sixth stage of the Tour of Switzerland in La Punt and claimed the race leader's jersey on Thursday while Lance Armstrong showed he was returning to top form by finishing fifth. Gesink, who trailed race leader Tony Martin by 27 seconds, attacked 14km from the finish on the third and last climb of the day to claim a solo victory ahead of a group of eight riders that was led by Rigoberto Uran and included Armstrong.
