Salanson takes third, Bodrogi leads

Bonjour's Fabrice Salanson won the third stage of the Tour de l'Avenir, a 154 kilometre leg from Ligné to Mouchamps. He was part of a two man break that had 20 seconds on the bunch at the finish. The second place went to Loïc Lamouller (Big Mat), while the bunch sprint for third was won by Credit Agricole's Thor Hushovd. Hungarian Laszlo Bodrogi (Mapei) kept his leader's jersey that he won after yesterday's time trial.

After just 22 kilometres a break formed with Cédric Jourdan, Jimmy Engoulvent, and Marc Vanacker who gained 5'35 by the 65th kilometer. Jourdan was the virtual leader on the road at this point so Mapei were forced to chase. Chase they did with the help of ONCE, and the break was caught with 11 kilometres to go. At that point, Salanson and Lamouller decided to try their luck and were successful, quickly gaining a minute on a bunch that had lost their rhythm. Cofidis tried hard to close it down but only got within 20 seconds of the pair as Salanson took the win.
