Other Stages
Brief:Christopher Boardman (GAN), won the 15.4 kms ITT today and showed his superiority in this discipline. The world hour record holder sizzled the technically complex route and also endured strong winds over the second half of the race. He kept the leader's jersey for another day as a consequence. Spaniard Luis Pérez was the revelation of the day, marking at time of 22.22 minutes, which many specialists were not able to improve.The other surprise of the day was the visit by the UCI 'Vampires' in their hunt for high hematocrit counts and Spaniard Garmendia (Banesto) got caught with a count higher than allowed, taking his license and therefore not being able to ride the time trial. Tomorrow's Sixth stage starts in the Winter Resort of Boi Taull and will cover 180 kms through the climbs of Comiols (Cat 2), Montllobar (3) & Boi Taull, where the finish will be located,a ategory one with up to 12% slopes. After the time trial Boardman commented that he felt that he had reached his goal for the race: "The logical thing happened for the time trial and also my objective, which was no other than to win the two time trials and wear the leader's jersey at the start of the race". He added: "It's almost a carbon copy of last year's edition, where I also won the two time trials and was the overall leader for many days and even held on for a mountain stage". Boardman said that the good thing about his results was that he is in form to accomplish one of his objectives for the season: the first maillot jaune at the Tour de France. Ten of the sixteen teams participating in Cataluña, were fined today 20.000 pesetas each ($US128.00). These teams used the time trial course for warming up, outside of the time alloted by the judges. The teams fined were: Estepona Brepac, Kelme Costa Blanca, Banesto, Once Deutsche Bank, Vitalicio Seguros; US Postal, Mercatone Uno, Mapei, Saeco and Telekom. Stage 5, Girona - Girona, 15.4 kms:1.
