David Kopp has given Gerolsteiner its first victory of 2006, winning the final stage of the Challenge Illes Balears in Palmanova. The final overall classification went to David Bernabeu (Comunidad Valenciana), although his teammate Julian Sanchez almost stole it from under his nose with a dangerous breakaway.

Sanchez had started the day just 26 seconds behind Bernabeu on GC, and managed to get away in the break of the day that started at kilometre 19. That took the pressure off Comunidad Valenciana, and the gap was allowed to go out to three minutes before Quick.Step and Caisse d'Epargne started to chase.

The advantage came down to a minute at the foot of the Coll De Tords with 15 km to go, and the break started to fall apart. Sanchez hung on, however, along with Jorge Azanza and Alberto Losada (Kaiku), and Iñaki Isasi (Euskaltel-Euskadi), and over the top, the gap was 32 seconds to the peloton.

But in the run in to the finish, the sprinters teams took control and the break was caught inside the final kilometre. Sanchez did well to finish third as David Kopp took a big win ahead of new T-Mobile rider Lorenzo Bernucci.
