- August 30: Albacete-Xorret del Catí (Alicante), 152.3 km
Jimenez (Eladio) wins first mountain test
By Gabriella Ekström, cyclingnews.com correspondent
 |
Banesto rider and holder of the mountains jersey in the Vuelta, Eladio Jimenez won the fifth stage today after he caught early break-away Fabio Roscioli from Jazztel only a few kilometres from the line. The stage to Xorret de Cati started without Mario Cipollini, who was immediately disqualified when he punched Vitalicio Seguros rider Francisco Cerezo in the face, right before the start.
In his usual grand tour style, Fabio Roscioli attacked early. When his gap reached 12 minutes, the peloton started to work but Roscioli seemed saved by the bell when the wind started to blow again. Soon, the peloton was scattered all over the road, and a lot of riders were in serious trouble. Roscioli rode strongly in the wind, and the riders back in the peloton were much too nervous to chase hard in the strong wind. When the rain started to fall shortly after the disaster was a fact, as rider after rider crashed on the slippery roads. One roundabout saw as many as seven separate crashes when the front group passed.

The stage ended with the first cat. climb of Alto de Cati, and Roscioli had a six minute advantage when he entered it. However the climb was so steep, 18 percent in some parts, that Roscioli nearly had to get off his bike. Those who remained in the peloton were soon shattered, and Alex Zülle, Ivan Gotti, Pascal Herve, Roberto Heras, Raimondas Rumsas and Eladio Jimenez formed a front group. Eladio attacked with four kilometres to go, and it was soon obvous that Roscioli wouldn't be able to fight him off.
Roscioli was caught with 300 meters to go to the top, and from there only a two kilometre descent remained. Roberto Heras chased after Jimenez, followed by Zulle and Gotti, but had to admit himself defeated when he entered the finishing straight three seconds after Jimenez. Zülle finished shortly after and remains in the lead, while Eladio Jimenez increased his lead in the mountains competition with 20 points taken during the day.
Ironically, the last rider to win at Catí (1998) was Eladio's teammate and namesake, Jose Maria Jimenez who finished 175th today, nearly 24 minutes behind.
