53rd Criterium du Dauphiné Libére - 2.HCFrance, June 10-17, 2001Main page Results Previous stage Stage 5 - June 15: Romans-sur-Isère - Grenoble, 151 kmMoreau and Tonkov battle for the lead as Kivilev takes stage
The Critérium du Dauphiné Libéré saw its fifth leader in five days as David Millar (Cofidis) dropped down the rankings as his teammate Andrei Kivilev sprinted to the stage win ahead of Sven Montgomery (FdJ), Benoît Salmon (Ag2r), and Pavel Tonkov (Mercury). The quartet finished 33 seconds in front of a group with Christophe Moreau (Festina) in it, which was just enough to give Moreau the overall lead in the Critérium with two days to go. For Kivilev, it was his first win as a professional, coming as it did at the expense of Millar's blue and yellow leader's jersey. However, Tonkov and Moreau are now only separated by 1 second, setting things up for an exciting battle on the slopes of the Galibier tomorrow. Although today's 151 kilometre stage from Romans-sur-Isère to Grenoble was meant to be "quiet" before tomorrow's mountains, it was not the case as Mercury put the hammer down at the bottom of the Col de Chamrousse (1735m), the only climb of the day. Tonkov attacked with approximately 9 kilometres to go to the top of the climb, taking Kivilev, Montgomery, and Salmon with him in what was to be the race deciding breakaway.
Moreau chased hard in a group of six, along with Leonardo Piepoli, Denis Menchov and Francisco Mancebo (iBanesto.com), Inigo Chaurreau and Ruben Gonzalez (Euskaltel). He limited the damage to 33 seconds, saying that "I knew I was virtual leader" when Millar and Vaughters were dropped earlier. Tomorrow's 6th stage is from Ponchara to Briançon, including the Col du Glandon (1924m) followed by the descent into St Jean de Maurrienne (600m), then the two part climb of the Galibier via the Col du Telegraphe (1566m) and the 2646m Galibier itself. After the descent of the Galibier, the race finishes in Briançon (1347m), a total of 193 kilometres of racing. Tomorrow, "the decision will be made with the pedals," said Moreau. "Freshness and recovery will play an important role." Tonkov commented, "I wanted to eliminate as many opponents as possible. Then I accelerated. I went away 10 kilometers before the top of the climb and I saw yesterday's winner suffering...Then we've all worked very well together. I didn't go for the sprint, I only focused on the leader's jersey." Likely contenders are Moreau, Tonkov, Salmon, Montgomery, Kivilev, Menchov, Unai Etxebarria, and Axel Merckx who occupy the top 8 positions on GC.
