Stage 4b - October 7: Marburg - Marburg ITT, 29.0 km

Liese gains TT from Steinhauser

Tobias Steinhauser has just 163 kilometres between him and the overall victory in the International Hessen Rundfarht after he placed second in the afternoon time trial in Marburg. Coming into the stage he was equal second with nine others, but demonstrated his power, finishing just 8 seconds behind Nürnberger's Thomas Liese.

Liese averaged an impressive 51 km/h for the 29 kilometre course, with Swiss rider Jean Nuttli (Phonak) taking third. This morning's leader, René Stadelmann (Phonak) lost one minute to drop to 6th place.

The closest rider to Steinhauser is now Mapei's Chann McRae, who placed fourth today and is 11 seconds off the pace. With three lead changes in four days, the final victory tomorrow is certainly not assured, however Steinhauser has both good credentials and a good team. The final stage from Marburg to Frankfurt am Main contains a first category climb that must be tackled four times.
