3rd Tour of Germany - 2.3Germany, May 29-June 4, 2001Main page Results Previous stage Stage 8 - June 4: Freudenstadt - Stuttgart, 161.0 kmZabel mops it up for Telekom
The 3rd Tour of Germany finished in Stuttgart today with no doubts whatsoever as to which team was the strongest. Crowd favourites team Telekom produced yet another perfect performance to launch Erik Zabel to victory, as he has done twice already in this tour. Today, Zabel preceded compatriot Sven Teutenberg (Festina) and Austrian Gerrit Glomser (Post Swiss Team) in the last bunch sprint of the Tour of Germany this year. The Telekom team finished with 5 stage wins (of 8 total): three for Zabel, one for Vinokourov and one for Rolf Aldag. In addition, Alexandre Vinokourov won the overall classification from Aitor Garmendia (Team Coast). There was to be no repeat of last year's "mistake" where David Plaza (Festina) won the tour from Andreas Klöden. This time, Telekom took the white leader's jersey in stage two courtesy of Erik Zabel, and never lost it after that. Vinokourov took over after he won the stage 6 time trial, and increased his advantage the next day in the toughest stage, riding away with Rolf Aldag in the last 35 km. The final stage today was full of the usual attacks, but Telekom was able to nullify them all in time for the sprint. For Zabel, it was an excellent preparation for his forthcoming defence of the Maillot Vert in the Tour de France. And for Vinokourov, it means that he will almost certainly make the Telekom Tour team, and should be valuable support in case Ullrich doesn't perform. "Finally, fate has smiled upon me," he said.
