Stage 11 - September 5: Alp-Arcalís (Andorra), 136.5 km
Casero wins round one
By Gabriella Ekström, cyclingnews.com correspondent

The first half of the Vuelta is over and it was Festina's Angel Casero who found himself in the golden jersey today after yet another tough battle in the mountains. Stage winner Roberto Laiseka (Euskaltel) finally gave his team some good fortune as he triumphantly crossed the line into Arcalis ahead of Carlos Sastre (ONCE) and Santi Blanco (Vitalicio). Round two of the 55th Vuelta a Espańa awaits.
Despite the mountainous parcours today, several strong riding machines including Andrea Peron, Andrea Tafi and Fabio Roscioli made early attacks. A long break was their only chance of course, but still the odds were not very good. Andrea Peron (Fassa Bortolo) who went away with Rolf Aldag (Telekom) and Andrei Zintchenko (LA Pecol) lasted longest though, and wasn't caught until Coll d' Ordino, with only the climb to Arcalis to go.
The group that caught Peron consisted of three riders from Kelme: Oscar Sevilla, Fernando Escartin and Jose Luis Rubiera, with Santiago Botero on his way back to the peloton after a fulfilling his job at the front. With the break were also Roberto Laiseka (Euskatel), Carlos Sastre (ONCE), Aitor Osa (Banesto) and Francisco Cerezo (Vitalicio). Andrei Teteriouk from Liquigas, who was away with Cerezo earlier and got caught by the group had just been dropped at this point. Then, Aitor Osa had some problems with either the gradient or the pace.
Back in the peloton, Virenque and Hervé from Polti took over the work close to the top of Coll d'Ordino. Their pace was enough to make Olano suffer, but he still had a chance to rejoin on the descent. Virenque attacked close to the summit, and brought Jon Odriozola (Banesto) and Roberto Sgambelluri (Cantina Tollo) with him. Festina and ONCE had joined forced in the peloton. ONCE suffered a loss when they lost Mikael Zarrabeitia on the first real descent of the day. He left the scene in ambulance with a damaged wrist and a possible concussion. ONCE were now using everyone they had in order to help Olano, and then there was always that little question mark called Santos Gonzalez. Was there a chance he will keep the jersey?

More and more riders joined Virenque's group and with ten kilometers to go it was more or less scattered. Beltran (Mapei) had made contact, and was now seen chasing after Sgambelluri and Odriozola who had the friskiest legs in the group. The strongest rider in the front group seemed to be Roberto Laiseka who jumped away from the others with five kilometers to go. Fernando Escartin was the only one who at least could try to follow. Santos Gonzalez back in the peloton were now under pressure from Ullrich and Igor Gonzalez de Galdeano and with one kilometer to go it was clear that he had lost the jersey.
Roberto Laiseka managed to fight off Manuel Beltran and Roberto Heras who came very strong at the end of the climb, as well as Carlos Sastre who finished second after a remarkable ride on the final climb. The new leader was Angel Luis Casero (Festina) who came in at 2.56.
There are now two rest days coming up: tomorrow (Sept. 6) and Friday, (Sept. 8). The transition stage on Thursday should see no great changes and battle will be rejoined in earnest on Sunday (Sept. 10) with another mountain top finish from Santander to Lagos de Covadonga.
