Edgardo Simon wins again

Edgardo Simon (Serramenti PVC Diquigiovanni-Selle Italia) won again in today's stage after a tough and long journey from Cañete to Concepcion. The stage included two categorised climbs during the last 30 kilometres which whittled the peloton down to the strongest riders.
Despite controlling the bunch for much of the stage, Lider were unable to seal the deal with a stage victory, although Francisco Cabrera maintained his overall lead and the Chilean team still holds the top five places on general classification. "We would like to have won the stage, but Francisco punctured in the final and he could not recover," said fourth-placed Russian Andrei Sartasov. "We got second and fourth and that is still okay. This year the other teams' level is much higher than last year."
Lider directeur sportif Victor Garrido was also satisfied with his team's performance on the longest stage of the race. "It was difficult, but the team responded perfectly," said Garrido. "Andrei won the mountain sprint with authority and Marco responded to all attacks. Today was an indication of how things will turn out in the mountain stages at the end of the week."
Serramenti PVC Diquigiovanni-Selle Italia once again attacked on the climbs, with a powerful move by Jose Serpa. A split occurred in the last 15 kilometres that included Marco Arriagada (Lider Presto), Francisco Terciado (Relax-Gam), and Serpa. They gained up to a 20 second advantage over the lead group, but were desperately chased by Scott and got caught just one kilometre from the finish. Simon timed his sprint well and again defeated Francisco Cabrera (Lider Presto), who keeps the leader's jersey. Third was Daniel Moreno (Relax-Gam).
The stage was marked by a two-man breakaway from Cesar Oliva (OGM) and Francisco San Martin (Team CN) who built up a maximum lead of over five minutes before they were eventually reeled in on the stage's penultimate climb. "We had to try to get into a break," said Oliva of his tactics. "We had made it to the finishes with Gonzalo [Miranda], and today it was my turn to do something. I was there but it would have been better with two or three more guys."
How it unfolded
|
The race started on time at 9am from Cañete. After peaceful 5 kilometres, attacks started coming from different teams but no-one was allowed to go. Cesar Oliva (OGM) was able to get away solo after seven kilometres and built up a one minute lead after 16 kilometres. He was later joined by Francisco San Martin (Team CN) who took the first intermediate sprint ahead of Oliva.
Back in the peloton, Arturo Corvalan (Glassex-Bryc) out-sprinted Francisco Cabrera (Lider Presto) for the last points available. The first hour of racing covered 37 kilometres, very different compared to yesterday's 47 kilometres for the first hour.
The leaders managed to build a five minute 40 second lead over the peloton after 90 kilometres of racing until Lider decided to reduce the gap on the first climb of the day. Oliva took the points at the summit followed by San Martin with the gap reducing rapidly behind. 20 kilometres later it was reduced to only 2:30 and as the peloton accelerated, crosswinds started to blow, causing some riders to be dropped.
|
With 30 kilometres remaining, the penultimate climb of the day started with Lider hammering away on the front, dropping most of the peloton and picking up Oliva and San Martin. One kilometre from the summit, Andrei Sartasov (Lider Presto) attacked and only Magno Prado (Scott) tried to follow, but he was unsuccessful. Sartasov won the mountain points followed by Prado and Marco Arriagada (Lider).
As the peloton proceeded downhill to Tome, Magno Prado punctured at almost 80km/h but was able to rapidly re-join the front group. Immediately after the downhill, the last climb began, with Lider once again controlling the situation and receiving constant attacks from Serramenti PVC Diquigiovanni-Selle Italia and Relax-Gam, and especially Jose Serpa who was clearly the strongest of his team.
Marco Arriagada countered all these moves, flying solo to the top and winning maximum points. On the downhill into Concepcion there was another puncture, this time from the GC's leader, Francisco Cabrera. The peloton were speeding at nearly 60 km/h and Cabrera almost didn't make it back as his teammates were busy following the moves from Serramenti PVC Diquigiovanni-Selle Italia and Relax-Gam.
|
As the Lider team were getting tired, Gonzalo Garrido (Lider) had to counter several consecutive moves from Serpa, who attacked on every uphill metre he could find.
With 10 kilometres remaining, a dangerous move by Marco Arriagada, Francisco Terciado (Relax-Gam) and Jose Serpa was successful and they gained 15 seconds. The Scott team was forced to chase and desperately tried to bring back the threatening trio. Just when it seemed that the break would make it, Scott made an all out effort and caught them with less than one kilometre to go. Edgardo Simon was again in a tired and reduced front group, and powered to the finish, winning his second consecutive stage.
Tomorrow's stage from Chillan to Talca will cover 160 kilometres. For most riders, it will feel like a rest day as it is completely flat. An escape is expected to make it to the finish, but nothing that could endanger the GC riders as Lider is expected to control the pace again. Riders will try to be as conservative as possible before the individual time trial on stage seven.
