France's first since '97
 |
By Tim Maloney, cyclingnews.com correspondent
When Firmin Lambot won Le Tour De France in 1922, it was the last time a 36 year old won the world's top bike race. Don't expect 36 year old Alberto Elli (Telekom) to simply roll into Paris in his Maillot Jaune, but Elli's strength and experience are such that he may even keep his " souvenir " as far as Le Mont Ventoux on July 13th...it all depends on how much Telekom will support Elli's lead. And today on a windy, rolling stage marked by intermittent rain across the Haut Limousin to Limoges, Telekom was, surprisingly, riding on the front to keep Elli in yellow. Although their tempo was not all-out, many observers remarked that Telekom simply didn't want to give up the jersey as easily as O.N.C.E. did yesterday.

After an audacious 130km effort, rangy Christophe Agnolutto (Ag2R Prevoynace) brought France it's first solo stage victory since '97 and his 5th career win. His cagey team manager Vincent Lavenu, realized that a strong rider like Agnolutto might get enough liberty from Telekom to get a good lead. And eventually, Agnolutto lost a lot of time from his maximum lead of over 8 minutes.
After a slow start, things heated up as the 2nd sprint approached in Martizay after 75km and Agnolutto joined a break with 4 others, but it was reeled in after a few km. However. it wasn't enough for Agnolutto, as he was under orders to make something happen for the Ag2R squad, who last season as Casino held the Maillot Jaune for the first week of Le Tour '99. 2000 has not been good for Ag2R and Agnolutto's win has brought a ray of sunshine to the "sympa" team of Lavenu & Co. Agnolutto held on from a chasing peloton to win by just over a minute over Marcel Wust (Festina) who snaked Eric Zabel (Telekom) in the bunch sprint and grabbed the green Points jersey.
The only other interesting moment of Stage 7 was with 10km to go, when a group of 10 riders got away on the run-in, including Maillot Jaune Alberto Elli and US Champ Fred Rodriguez, but as soon as they established a gap, 5 USPS riders swarmed to the front and quickly pulled the break back. No way USPS was going to let a Telekom rider, even Elli, gain more time on them!
