31st Internationale Niedersachsen Rundfahrt - 2.1Germany, April 25-29, 2007Main Page Results Overall standings Previous Stage Next Stage Stage 3 - April 27: Melle - Rheda-Wiedenbrück (NRW), 160.9 kmCiolek breaks Peta's streakBy Susan Westemeyer 20-year-old Gerald Ciolek of T-Mobile won the sprint in the third stage of the Niedersachsen Rundfahrt, putting a stop to Alessandro Petacchi's winning streak. Petacchi's Milram teammate Erik Zabel finished second in the race, with Graeme Brown of Rabobank third. After not performing up to expectations in the first two stages, the T-Mobile team got its act together today. "10 kilometers before the finish, we had built up a solid train and were able to be successful against the strong Milram team," said Directeur Sportif Jan Schaffrath on the team's website, t-moble-team.com It was Ciolek's first win for T-Mobile. "Gerald just needed some time to find his place in the field. Today everything worked out," said Schaffrath. The youngster moved from 40th in overall to fourth, behind Petacchi, Zabel, and Brown. After having won all five stages last year and the first two stages this year, Petacchi wanted to thank Zabel, who had prepared the previous sprints, by returning the favor. "It was very important for me to work for Erik on this stage. After my second win yesterday, I spoke with him and said that I would prepare a sprint for him," the Italian said on team-milram.com. "This race is in Germany and after this crash in Flanders, things haven't gone so well. I wanted him to win the stage. " However, Ciolek shot around the 36-year-old Zabel to take the win. Once again, an escape group dominated the early part of the race, breaking away after the first mountain ranking. They had a lead of up to nearly three minutes before being absorbed back into the peloton at the beginning of the closing lap in Wiedenbrück.
