Vicioso escaped with eight other riders, beating David Etxebarria (Euskaltel) and Paolo Lanfranchi (Mapei) in the sprint. The win nearly belonged to Mercatone's Igor Astarloa, who suffered a mechanical failure in the final metres, and eventually finished 5th. The attack of the day came from iBanesto.com's José Vicente García Acosta, who escaped for most of the day with a maximum lead of seven minutes. The big Spaniard was chased down by Euskaltel Euskadi with 25 kilometres to go, as they wanted Etxebarria to win. As Acosta was caught, David Vázquez (Relax Fuenlabrada) counter-attacked on the final climb of the day (Purto de Lezaún), with 22 kilometres to go, but he was recaptured by a peloton that was some 55 riders strong. There were several more attacks on the climb, as Etxebarria crested first followed by a group of 12. Of this group, Mario Aerts (Lotto) launched an attack in the final kilometres, but was chased down by Etxebarria. There were now nine riders left to contest the sprint, and it was Kelme's Vicioso who had the fastest legs.
