52nd Criterium du Dauphiné Libére - 2.HCFrance, June 4 - 11, 2000Main Page Results Previous stageStage 5 - June 9: Beaumes-de-Venise - Dignes-les-Bains, 201 kmHamilton takes command as Zubeldia falters
It was Christophe Bassons (J Delatour) who made the first attack and a group of 15 riders was formed early in the race. At the foot of the first climb, Col de Trois Thermes, they had a 50 seconds gap after one hour of racing. The gap kept growing and due to the speed at the front, several riders were hooked off while others joined from behind. Three hours into the race there were ten riders with a gap exceeding two minutes. In the group were: David Millar (Cofidis), Stéphane Heulot (FDJ), David Delrieu (Ag2R), Giuseppe Di Grande (Festina), Bobby Julich (Credit Agricole), Kevin Livingston (US Postal), Ramon Gonzalez (Euskaltel), Santiago Botero (Kelme), Vicent Garcia Acosta (Banesto) and Rik Verbrugghe (Lotto). The group kept the gap growing. After four hours it was four minutes but the peloton came closer on the climb of the Col de Corobin and on the climb three riders, Heulot, Delrieu and Garcia Acosta, took off from the group. Later they were joined by more riders, among them Julich. Even later Armstrong and Hamilton came up from behind and managed to ride clear from the others with Hamilton winning the stage and taking over the classification. In third was Verbrugghe followed by Halgand, with the yellow jersey of Zubeldia coming in that same group, 47 seconds behind. This gap was more than enough for Hamilton to take the lead, and he looks in a good position with two stages to go. Teammate Lance Armstrong was back to good form after losing time yesterday due to hunger flat on the Ventoux. He is now third, just 4 seconds behind Zubeldia.
