Tour de France 2013, stage four: Simon Gerrans takes yellow jersey as Orica-GreenEdge win team time trial in Nice Nor was it David Millar's day. The Garmin-Sharp veteran started out harbouring hopes of wearing yellow after coming so desperately close to claiming the famous jersey on stage two, when the peloton were a fraction of a wheel away from recording the same time as stage winner Jan Bakelants - the difference enough to put the Belgian in the maillot jaune ahead of the Scot. However, his Garmin-Sharp squad finished 17 seconds down and the chance was gone for Millar, who wore yellow on his Tour debut in 2000 but never since. Bakelants and his RadioShack Leopard squad took to the course last but finished 29 seconds back, only good enough for 11th as the Belgian's two-day stint in yellow came to an end. Gerrans becomes only the sixth Australian to ever wear the yellow jersey, following Phil Anderson, Stuart O'Grady, Brad McGee, Robbie McEwen and Cadel Evans. Evans, the 2011 winner and an outside contender this year, finished ninth today with his BMC Racing squad, 26 seconds back. Gerrans is joined by two team-mates at the top of the new-look general classification, with South African Daryl Impey second and Swiss Michael Albasini in third, both on the same time. Omega Pharma-Quick Step's Michal Kwiatkowski, wearing the young rider's white jersey, and team-mate Sylvain Chavanel are fourth and fifth, one second back. Norwegian Edvald Boasson Hagen leads the Team Sky contingent, three seconds back, with Froome classed seventh and Richie Porte eighth.
