23rd Vuelta Ciclista de Chile - Cat. 2.5Chile, March 23-April 2, 2000Stage 7a - March 30: San Fernando-Talca, 110 kmRodriguez edges closerBy John Alsedek, cyclingnews.com correspondent The first of two stages today, this 113 km leg from Concepcion to Chillan came down to a 26-rider bunch sprint, with Uruguay's Jose Maneiro (Crush Entre Rios) beating Richard Rodriguez- second overall on G.C.- in a photo finish. While Rodriguez came up just short for the stage, the time bonus moved him to within eight seconds of overall leader Andriss Reiss (Sintofarm). One rider who wasn't so lucky was Rodriguez's Union Ciclista Curico teammate, Arturo Corvalan, who was involved in a crash and, after being attended to by medics, finished over fourteen minutes back. Diagnosed afterwards with a collarbone fracture, it is uncertain as to whether Corvalan will be able to continue the Vuelta de Chile. The day's racing continues this evening with a 20 km time trial.
