Just when you started thinking that the curse of the rainbow jersey was getting to the young Spanish Mapei rider, Oscar Freire, he comes back with yet another victory. This time it was in stage three of the Vuelta a Aragon, in a 35 strong group sprint. The stage, conducted in rainy conditions, was between Benasque and Sabinánigo, 159 kilometres and two climbs en route.

Banesto had to work to keep the leader's jersey on the shoulders of Leonardo Piepoli, overnight leader, although at the end of the day they were successful. They still have Garmendia in second place with two stages to go, and are seeking to notch up their first stage race victory for the year. Kelme and ONCE were on the attack however, placing Angel Vicioso and David Canada in the first attack of the day.

Potuguese rider, Orlando Rodrigues was doing a fine job for his Banesto leader and helped keep things together under the pressure of ONCE and Kelme on the climb of Cotefablo (Cat. 1). On the descent though, Kelme's Jose Luis Rubiera, managed to escape using his superior skills in the wet to establish a small gap that eventually resulted in a selection of 35 riders with 40 kilometres to go.

After this, Mapei-Quick Step took up the reins to set things up for Freire, who responded admirably by winning the stage (victory number 5 for the year), ahead of Miguel A. Martin (Vitalicio) and Ivan Basso (Amica Chips).

Tomorrow's stage 4 will be disputed between Jaca (Huesca) and Borja (Zaragoza) over 186 kilometres with the potential of strong cross-winds along the way.
