Ukrainian's win a boost to TVM

Serguei Outchakov (Ukr) of TVM-Farm Frites won his first stage of the Tour of Spain in six years when he outsprinted Italy's Fabio Roscioli of Costa Almeria-Amica Chips in the 183.2 km 10th stage, which started and finished in Zaragoza.

With only one small climb on the stage, this was the last flat stage before the Tour hits the Pyrenees and all of the leading riders in the general classification finished safely in the bunch, 28 seconds behind the stage winner.

France's Jacky Durand (Lotto-Mobistar), who initiated the break with Outschakov after 39 kms, led home the second group, some 13 seconds behind.

Outchakov and Roscioli broke away from the five leading riders with five kilometres to go. They worked together to ensure they would stay away, with the sprint coming down to the final 200 metres.

After the finish, Outchakov said "All through the stage I was thinking that the countryside looks like that around Bergamo in Italy where I have spent much of the last seven years. So I want to dedicate this victory to all my family and friends there."

Race leader Abraham Olano (ONCE-Deutsche Bank), meanwhile, preferred to remain inconspicuous in the bunch in preparation for the mountain stages which follow.

One of the casualties of today's stage was the Italian Stefano Zanini (Mapei-Quick Step) who fell and suffered a broken wrist.

Stage Preview:

The riders come into this flat stage rested from the day before. No racing! The stage will come down to a mass sprint and the terrain is not tough enough to allow significant breakaways to occur. The only problem is that the parcours is wind-exposed and this may provide some scope for attacking riding. The stage before the mountains begin in earnest.
