Leoni first leader
Alessio's Endrio Leoni has won the first stage of the Volta ao Algarve,
a 171.7 kilometre leg starting and finishing in Tavira. Leoni won from
US Postal's Stephane Barthe and Rabobank's Steven de Jongh in a bunch
sprint. However, Abraham Olano (ONCE) lost three seconds on the stage
after being caught behind a slight split at the finish.
After just 10 kilometres, ONCE's Rafael Diaz attacked on his own.
He took the first mountain prize, the third category Alcaria do Cume
and then the second category Alto do Capocho, by which time he was joined
by Pedro Martins.
However the break was caught after two hours, and a counter move went
from Ramon Medina (Boavista) who succeeded in staying away until kilometre
121. At this point, the bunch had been split into two, with most of
the important riders making the cut.
In the finale, the Italian Alessio team managed to keep control for
their sprinter Leoni. He won in a tight finish from Stephane Barthe
and Steven de Jongh.
