37th Tour de l'Avenir - 2.5France, August 31-September 9, 2000Main Page Results Previous stage Stage 5 - September 4: Le Blanc - Saint-Amand-Montrond, 172 kmChotard and Zampieri in two upLaurent Chotard riding for the French National Team won the fifth stage of the Tour de l'Avenir, a 172 kilometre leg from Le Blanc to Saint-Amand-Montrond. He was the best of a two man breakaway, beating Mercury's Steve Zampieri with Big Mat's Jay Sweet winning the bunch sprint for third. Hungarian Laszlo Bodrogi (Mapei) preserved his leader's jersey after yet another fast day in the saddle. Before the stage started, a minute's silence was held by the peloton and caravan in memory of Swiss rider, Magali Pache who was accidentally killed after yesterday's final stage of the Trophee d'Or Feminine, that finished in Saint-Amand-Montrond. Mercury's Zampieri was a compatriot of Pache and admitted afterwards that he didn't want to take the start. However, he made the decisive break and then wanted to win it for her. Nine riders established a gap at the 135 kilometre point, and this was reduced to just two after Chotard attacked with 20 kilometres to go. Zampieri was the only one to follow the Frenchman and they held off the bunch by a meagre 14 seconds at the finish.
