MORZINE, France -- After two crashes, a bloodied knee and even a run up legendary Mont Ventoux, a relieved Chris Froome can cruise into Paris on Sunday and secure his third Tour de France title in four years.Froome kept his lead intact during the final day of climbing -- and descending -- in the Alps on Saturday and heads to the mostly ceremonial finish on the Champs-Elysees with a comfortable advantage of 4 minutes, 5 seconds over Romain Bardet of France.It feels like its been a roller coaster, Froome said. Its just been an amazing race where Ive really taken on the race.The highlights for Froome were a daring downhill attack and stage victory in the eighth leg and getting into a late breakaway amid strong crosswinds in Stage 11.You just cant script moments like that, Froome said. Its bike racing at its best. ... I really felt like a kid again.Froome was also slowed by a motor bike crash on Ventoux, prompting him to run up the road when he saw that his bike was damaged. He then fell hard on a slippery descent in Stage 19 on Friday.Wearing bandages on his right knee and elbow for Saturdays stage, Froome was never in trouble as his top lieutenants at Team Sky escorted him up and down each of the days four climbs.Its been a really intense race. ... It was incredible to cross the last finish line with my teammates, Froome said. They were with me for the entire Tour.On the final descent, which had a vertical drop of more than 700 meters (2,300 feet), Froome was extremely careful but none of his main rivals attacked.Froome, the Kenyan-born British rider who won the Tour in 2013 and 2015, then eased up just before the line and lost a few seconds to his main rivals. He let out a thin smile when he reached the finish as his Sky teammates cheered him on.There was no surprise because Chris Froome won.

All three riders were part of an early breakaway.Izagirre had enough time to clap his hands together in celebration as he crossed the line and secured his first career stage win in the Tour, having also won a stage in the 2012 Giro dItalia.Izagirre was in front on the descent when Pantano made a slight error and had to put his left foot to the ground to regain control, which also slowed Nibali.Izagirre was clocked at 85 kph (53 mph) on the descent.I think my parents must have been scared watching at home, he said. I wanted to drop Nibali because I was worried about him in a sprint. ... Beating Nibali in a downhill is something that counts in a career.Until this stage, Izagirre had been a support rider for Movistar teammate Quintana, a two-time Tour runner-up who had designs on winning this Tour.We came here with the yellow dream but Froome was the strongest, Izagirre said. At the end of the day, were happy with a spot on the podium, a stage win and the teams classification victory.A minute of silence was held at the start of the stage to mourn the nine victims of Fridays shooting in Munich.
