The final stage of the Vuelta a Pais Vasco was the decider - an 8.5
kilometre mountain time trial up the slopes of the second category climb
finishing at Madarixa. Race leader, Danilo Di Luca may have suffered
from some over confidence this morning when he led out teammate, Gabriele
Colombo for the win. He finished second in the time trial, but it wasn't
enough to stop Paris-Nice winner, Andreas Klöden (Telekom) from winning
the stage and the overall, by some five seconnds. Klöden averaged just
over 30 km/h up the climb to beat Di Luca by 15 seconds. In third was
yesterday's winner, Laurent Jalabert (ONCE), 31 seconds down.
This then was the order of the final classification, as there were
still many riders left to contest the overall after several large bunch
finishes. 24 year old Klöden, who turned pro in May 1998 is the first
German winner of the Basque tour, won last year by Jalabert.
The mountains classification was won by Alberto Lopez de Munain (Euskaltel),
while Aitor Silloniz (Euskaltel) won the sprints, and Jalabert (ONCE) the points classifications.
Despite the presence of some top names in the peloton (Armstrong,
Camenzind, Dufaux, Elli, and Merckx), they did not choose to start in
the final stage as they were many minutes down on GC. Armstrong flew
back to the US to participate in this weekend's BMC criterium and Ride
for the Roses benefit for cancer. Olano is still suffering from flu
and cited family committments, while the remaining names did not specify
their reasons.
