RODEZ, France (Reuters) - Fabio Aru looks tired and Team Sky should try and finish him off in Sunday's 15th stage of the Tour de France after the Italian surrendered the yellow jersey to Chris Froome on Saturday, three-times champion Greg LeMond said.

Astana rider Aru was far from the front of the peloton when they reached the bottom of the final climb, a 600-metre effort at an average gradient of 9.6 per cent, and lost a massive 24 seconds to Froome.
