The Team Sky rider completed the testing 17km stage in the shadow of Mont Blanc in a time of 30 minutes 43 seconds.
His second stage win of this Tour came by 21 seconds from Dutch time-trial specialist Tom Dumoulin, but Froome's first priority was to pick up time in the general classification.
He did that by some margin, and now leads second-placed Bauke Mollema by three minutes and 52 seconds with two mountain stages left to go before the traditional parade into Paris.&nbsp;
