15th Grande Boucle Féminine - 2.9.1France, August 5-18, 2001Main page Results Previous stage Stage 13 - August 18: Guillestre - Vaujany, 135.5 kmLuperini and Somarriba battle it out to the death
Fabiana Luperini (Edilsavino) has won her second stage in La Grande Boucle Feminine, the tough 135.5 kilometre Alpine leg from Guillestre to Vaujany. She beat her main rival and race leader Joane Somarriba (Alfa Lum) by five seconds, meaning that Somarriba has all but won this race. In third place was German Judith Arndt (Junkers-Noja) who also cemented her third spot on GC. Today's stage was the toughest of the tour, with three categorised climbs to be tackled. In the early part of the stage, Somarriba and Luperini attacked on the lead up to the Col d'Izoard, catching a group of nine who had led the race from the beginning.
Luperini was first over the top of the climb, with Somarriba close behind, but this wasn't to be the decisive attack. The leaders regrouped, and it was Italian Marianna Lorenzoni who crossed the Col d'Lautaret in front of Somarriba, Luperini, Arndt, Rasa Polikeviciute and Roberta Bonanomi, all well placed on GC. A trio of Svetlana Boubnenkova, Alessandra Capellotto and Susanne Ljungskog bridged up to these six riders, forming a group of nine that started the final climb up to Vaujany. Luperini was the first to attack, but she was closely marked by Somarriba, who held a 3'33 advantage on GC over the Italian. Luperini was stronger when they reached the top, and launched her final attack in order to win the stage. However, it will be Joane Somarriba in yellow in Paris tomorrow, as La Grand Boucle Feminine reaches its conclusion with a 117.8 km stage from Pierrelaye to Paris.
