Stage 8 - September 2: Vinaroz-Port Aventura, 168.5 km
Petacchi conquers Conte, Freire abandons
By Gabriella Ekström, cyclingnews.com correspondent
 |
Alessandro Petacchi from Fassa Bortolo, outsprinted Saeco's Biagio Conte to take the victory in Port Aventura. The two Italians, schooled by Bruno and Roberto Reverberi, were the fastest finishers during the slight uphill sprint of the day. Biagio Conte may unintentionally have saved the day for Petacchi, when he closed the road for Farm Frites sprinter Jans Koerts who was coming through strongly. For this he was later declassified to 113th in the peloton after the jury reviewed the sprint.
A break consisting of Stefano Casagranda (Alessio), Christophe Bassons (Jean Delatour), Jan Svorada (Lampre), Guido Trentin (Cantina Tollo), Victor Hugo Peńa (Vitalicio) and Mirko Marini, (Liquigas) was brought back by the peloton, driven by Farm Frites and Telekom, with only two kilometers to go. At that same moment, yet again, a big crash occurred in the middle of the bunch, and although no one was reported injured, several riders lost time. Many sprinters lost important leadouts as well, and Conte for example was on his own at the end of the stage.
One sprinter was missing in the sprint, and that was Oscar Freire. Oscar got off his bike halfway during the stage, and stepped into the Mapei car, surrounded by worried teammates. He was holding his wrist, so he may have been suffering from an earlier crash, but later said that his back problems and preparation for the Olympics were the cause.
Fassa Bortolo joined Farm Frites at the front with a kilometre to go, and humbly enough, it was Baldato himself who gave Petacchi his leadout. Petacchi started the sprint very early, but was able to keep Conte a few centimeters behind him, meaning that he could step onto the podium with the podium girls as well as his toy woodpecker (awarded to all podium finishers today). There were no changes in the G.C, but Lombardi took over the grey points jersey from Oscar Freire.
