Italian sprinter Ivan Quaranta (Alexia Alluminio) has won the first stage of the Tour of Qatar, that started in Doha today. Quaranta finished the 117 kilometre stage in front of Luciano Pagliarini (Lampre) with Jean-Patrick Nazon (Francaise Des Jeux) taking third in the bunch sprint. Quaranta therefore took the first golden jersey, awarded to the overall leader of the race.
Fakta's new signing Magnus Backstedt was looking for an early season hit out, and was one of the most aggressive riders today. He got in a short lived breakaway at 24 kilometres, but made better progress in the next breakaway that started at 27 kilometres. This group contained nine riders, including Laurent Jalabert (CSC), Ralf Grabsch (Telekom), Pascal Derame and Walter Beneteau (Bonjour), Christophe Mengin (FDJ), Vincent Van der Kooij (Bankgiroloterij), Andrey Kaschechkin and Enrico Cassani (Domo-Farm Frites).
The breakaways increased their lead as Backstedt won both intermediate sprints in Al Shahaniyah (53 kms) and Khalifa Stadium (87.5 kms). However, a concerted effort from the Alexia and Coast teams brought them back in time for a bunch sprint.
Quaranta took it out ahead of young Brazilian Luciano Pagliarini, who earned the bronze jersey as best young rider. Jean-Patrick Nazon finished third.
