Stage 2, Castell de Ferro - Malaga, 153.1 kms:

Stage 2 is condidered the "Queen Stage" and covered the 153.1 kms from Castell Ferro to Malaga. The stage became a sort of festival for the Kelme-Costa Blanca team who not only took the stage win through Colombian Santiago Botero but also put Spaniard Javier Pascual Rodríguez into the leader's jersey. Botero came in with a time of 3.56.57 followed by Pascual, with a chasing quartet composed of Spaniards Blanco and Mancebo, Belgian De Wolf and Dane Moller coming in 1.18 minutes later.

The stage began quietly, with the riders enjoying the view and excellent temperature, even though the first of three climbs was almost at the beginning. The big favorite to win the stage, Francisco Cabello, was first over the climb and gave the impression that he would dominate the rest of the stage. But things didn't turn out that way. After the climb the peloton took it easy again until the 44 kms mark when the Spaniard Ibon Ajuria (Euskaltel) and Dutchman Tristan Hoffman (TVM) took off and opened a maximum advantage of seven minutes. They were caught 53 kms later at km 97.

At the foot of the second climb of the day, the alto de Olias, the peloton was complete and no attacks went on the ascent. However, once over the top and down the other side, Santiago Blanco (Vitalicio Seguros) attacked and took with him the winning pair Javier Pascual and Santiago Botero, both from Kelme-Costa Blanca. On the third and last climb, Blanco was dropped after he suffered a flat tire and was never able to get back on to the Kelme pair, who were working beautifully together. Blanco was eventually caught by Banesto rider Francisco Mancebo, Steve De Wolf and Claus Moller but they could not agree to work together and the top 2 went further away.
