47th Four Days of Dunkirk - 2.1France, May 8-13, 2001Main page Results Previous stage Stage 2 - May 9: Roost Warendin - Haisnes-les-la-Bassée, 192.2 kmKirspuu again after day of failed attacksJaan Kirspuu (AG2R Prévoyance) scored a remarkable second successive victory in the Four Days of Dunkirk and consolidated his lead by outsprinting Stuart O'Grady (Crédit Agricole) andJan Koerts (Mercury-Viatel). Jacky Durand (la Française des Jeux), made the day's early action with a breakaway at the fifth kilometre that eventually put him 5 minutes 30 seconds ahead of the peloton. But Durand was unable to stay away when the race hit pave and was caught after 70km. As the bunch swept up Durand, Christophe Moreau (Festina) and David Millar (Cofidis) attacked, with Moreau soon dropping the Englishman. Millar's Cofidis team organised the chase and closed the gap to Moreau. Gianluca Bortolami (Tacconi) led the next attack, taking with him Frederic Bessy (Crédit Agricole), Eddy Lembo (Jean Delatour), David Zabriskie (US Postal) and Stefano Casagranda. This group stayed away until 15km from the finish when the peloton once again regrouped, making a sprint inevitable.
