15th Grande Boucle Féminine - 2.9.1France, August 5-18, 2001Main page Results Previous stage Stage 9 - August 14: St Yorre - St Galmier, 112.5 kmSamokhvalova/Slioussareva dynamic duo
The ninth stage of La Grande Boucle Feminine ended in a Russian 1-2, with Svetlana Samokhvalova and Olga Slioussareva (Carpe Diem Itera) taking out first and second places. The pair were part of a four woman break that gained two minutes on the field, but were no threat to the overall lead of Rasa Polikeviciute (Acca Due O). Today's stage between Saint-Yorre and Saint-Galmier was 112.5 km, over several average difficulty climbs. After just 3.5 kilometres, Fabiana Luperini (Edil Savino), Alessandra Cappellotto (GAS), Joane Somarriba (Alfa Lum) and Rasa Polikeviciute (Acca Due O) crossed the côte de Busset in the lead, followed by the col du Beau-Louis at 32 kilometres, the main difficulty of the stage.
After that, the peloton remained together until kilometre 88 when Slioussareva won the intermediate sprint, followed by Martissova and R. Polikeviciute, who added another second to her lead. Chantal Beltman counter attacked after the sprint, gaining over 35 seconds before Slioussareva, Samokhvalova and Bettina Schoke (Junkers) caught her to make the decisive break. At the end, a strong attack by Samokhvalova combined with some 'preventative measures' from Slioussareva gave Samokhvalova the stage, with Beltman having to settle for third. Tomorrow's 10th stage is crucial. It is a 45 kilometre individual time trial from Saint-Galmier to Rive-de-Gier, and may see a change in the top 6.
