The list narrows. Prior to today's fifth stage of the FBD Insurance Rás, there were 33 riders within two minutes of the yellow jersey. After the 131 kilometre leg to Buncrana, this such list of contenders had plummeted to 16, with just three of these being within a minute of the time of new leader Tony Martin.
On paper, and in practice, the race was a very decisive one. In featuring the gruelling Mamore Gap plus five other categorised climbs, a shakeup was almost certain, and so it proved. A quintet of riders went clear after approximately 20 kilometres of racing and built a solid lead. And while the Kodak Gallery Sierra Nevada team of race leader Jesse Anthony rode for a long time on the front of the main bunch, they were unable to bring back the threatening move.
The day's biggest winners were the Thuringer Energy team, who took the stage victory thanks to Nico Graf and the yellow jersey via the efforts of Martin. Previous race leader Jesse Anthony finished back in tenth and drops to third overall, having lacked the legs to go with Martin and Chris Newton (Recycling.co.uk) when they put the hammer down on the cruel slopes of Mamore.
"It was a hard day," said Graf, who was clear for almost the entire stage with Paídi O'Brien (Ireland Murphy and Gunn/Newlyn Group/M. Donnelly Sean Kelly), Ricardo Van der Velde (Netherlands), Jason Hegert (FRF Couriers) and Yannick Tiedt (Stevens Von Hacht).
"We thought that there would be a fast start at the beginning and there would be a selection. After ten kilometres there was a big group and then there were attacks. I had to go with the Dutch rider [Van der Velde]. After 40 kilometres we were in the group with five riders. I knew that it was a long way to the finish but I had good legs.
|
"Our group was good together, every rider drove it. The gap to the field became bigger. I didn't want to go for the mountain prizes or anything else, because I wanted to aim for the stage. In the general classification I am very much behind because two days ago I lost 20 minutes. The GC was finished for me then."
O'Brien finished second in the two-up sprint for stage honours, making it the third stage on the race where he has been runner-up. "We knew it was windy at the beginning so we said that we would go and try to have the full team at the front. Then as that group got bigger the speed went out of it so I attacked. We got into a group, it wasn't too hard and we kept putting time into the others. I thought then that it might be possible to take the jersey or to go for the stage win."
He and Graf were distanced by Van der Velde on the climb of Mamore. The Dutchman topped the next summit ahead of them, but strong driving by O'Brien and Graf eventually brought him back.
"The climb was hard, you couldn't get out of the saddle because the back wheel was spinning. Then in the last ten kilometres Kurt [Bogaerts, team manager] came onto the radio and said that I should try to go for time, so gave it everything coming in the last ten kilometres and finished just a little bit short of the yellow jersey. I did most of the work as I needed to get the time; both those other guys [Graf and Van der Velde] were 20 minutes down so they were playing for the stage...it is understandable."
|
The Dutchman finished third in the end, but has now taken what should be an unbeatable lead in the king of the mountains classification. He is now 34 points clear of Jesse Anthony; with eight category three climbs remaining in the race, a prime win on each of these would yield 40 points. So it is looking good.
"The plan was to have our best riders in the front from the beginning and make the race hard from then," he said, explaining their tactics. "That worked out well. We went away with a fairly large group. I noticed that the Germany rider who was also going for the mountains jersey was not in the group, so it was easy for me to get the points.
"The group was going slower and slower after that and I attacked again as I saw the German rider was coming back. A small group came up to me and we all worked really well together.
"I think I was the best uphill and everyone in the break said to me that I could have the points. It is a pity there wasn't an uphill finish because I think I would have won then. They caught me inside the final two kilometres and as they are faster than me, they finished ahead.
"I am happy to have the mountains jersey. There are still three stages to go but I want to try to hold on to it."
|
Martin is also happy with his new jersey. This marks the third time he has led a big stage race; last year he won the Internationale Thüringen-Rundfahrt under 23 event. Earlier this year he won a stage of the Circuit des Ardennes, so he has the ability to come out on top here.
"Today was a tough race, but the race leader's team had to drive the pace all the time so I could sit behind them. It was not so hard for me. But on the mountain I had to give it everything, it was very hard. I think the day was harder for the yellow jersey, though."
He's hopeful of defending his lead, but he knows nothing is guaranteed. "It is very difficult because we don't know the course for the next few days. We have to see what the rest of the peloton will do."
Martin's race number was obscured when he crossed the line, and so immediately after the stage many felt that O'Brien was the new leader. When everything was calculated, he finally came up 17 seconds short. The FBD Insurance Rás is notoriously difficult to control, though, so there is a silver lining.
"It is not that disappointing to miss out on yellow because there are still three long days ahead," O'Brien said. "It would have been nice to have the jersey, but I can still go on the attack tomorrow because I don't have to defend the lead. We will see how things work out by Sunday!"
Newton and Martin came out of the chase group to place fourth and fifth, with Irishmen David McCann (Ireland Subway Eat Fresh) and Stephen Gallagher (Ireland Murphy and Gunn/Newlyn Group/M. Donnelly Sean Kelly) taking sixth and seventh, nine seconds ahead of a disappointed Anthony.
O'Brien and team-mate Mark Cassidy are now best placed Irishmen overall in second and seventh respectively. The race continues tomorrow with a short but potentially decisive 96 kilometre leg to Derry.
How it unfolded
|
136 riders lined out in overcast conditions for the start of stage 5 of the FBD Insurance Rás, a gruelling 131 kilometres from Dungloe to Buncrana. The day's route would see the riders cross six categorised climbs, including the second cat Carabit and Pinch Mountain plus first category Gap of Mamore, regarded by some as one of the hardest climbs in the country. It tops out just 13 kilometres from the finish, making it vitally important for those hoping for stage honours or a good showing in the general classification.
After a very aggressive start a group of twenty-nine riders went clear approximately ten kilometres into the stage and were together when they hit slopes of the day's first climb, the cat 3 Peirse Mor. There was a chasing group of 20 riders at 33 seconds, with another group 50 seconds back.
Race leader Jesse Anthony (Kodak Gallery Sierra Nevada) fortified his hold on the mountains jersey when he beat closest challenger Ricardo Van der Velde (Netherlands) and Brian Kenneally to the top of the climb.
The two frontmost groups joined soon afterwards. Further back, a lot of riders were under pressure, with a large peloton over two minutes down. Robin Chaigneau (Netherlands) took top points on the day's second climb, Carabit (category 2, 18.3 km), crossing the line ahead of team-mate Van der Velde and Anthony.
|
Shortly afterwards, Van der Velde clipped away alone, realising that he needed to open up some distance over Anthony in a bid to maximise his chances of taking the mountains jersey. He was joined by four others, namely Paídi O'Brien (Ireland Murphy and Gunn/Newlyn Group/M. Donnelly Sean Kelly), Jason Hegert (FRF Couriers), Nico Graf (Thuringer Energy) and Yannick Tiedt (Stevens Von Hacht), and these five opened a 30 second lead over a 52 man chasing group.
After 30 kilometres of racing the gap was 43 seconds. 11 riders set off in pursuit, namely Yvo Kusters (Netherlands), Mark Cassidy, Stephen Gallagher, Glenn Bak (all Ireland Murphy and Gunn/Newlyn Group/M. Donnelly Sean Kelly), Peter Herzig (FRF Couriers), Chris Newton (Recycling.co.uk), Tony Martin (Thuringer Energy), Dominque Rollin and race leader Jesse Anthony (Kodak Gallery Sierra Nevada), Roger Aiken (Armagh Big Picture Developments) and Brian Kenneally (Meath MyHome.ie/BDBC).
These were then joined by Paul Griffin (Ireland Subway Eat Fresh), Alain Van der Velde (Netherlands), Peter McDonald (FRF Couriers), Mart Ojavee (Kalev Chocolate) and Marcin Bialoblocki (Team Sportscover). More riders then came up just before the leaders headed into Letterkenny, some 50 kilometres after the start of the stage.
|
O'Brien and the other four up front were briefly sent the wrong direction here, losing some time, but being quickly alerted to the problem and getting back on course. Roger Aiken (Armagh Big Picture Developments) set off in pursuit and closed to within 12 seconds of the quintet before eventually cracking and slipping back to the chasing group at the 84 kilometre point. He would have enough left in the tank to finish 23rd on the stage, taking the prize for the best county rider.
Van de Velde continued to scoop the points when he finished ahead of O'Brien and Tiedt on the category three climb of Slavary (93.2 km). The yellow jersey group was 2'27 back at this stage, with his US Kodak Gallery Sierra Nevada team doing the bulk of the chasing. Despite this driving, by the time Van de Velde collected the top points at Pinch Mountain (102.8 km), the gap was still around two and a half minutes, and as the rain came down with 20 kilometres remaining, the break were two minutes and 40 seconds clear. The stage win suddenly looked more than possible.
Van de Velde was certainly aiming for that and drove hard on Mamore Gap to crest the top ahead of Graf and O'Brien. He tore down the short descent and then dug deep again on the final climb of the day, the third cat Old Mountain, collecting more KOM points and ensuring that he would end the day a very considerable 34 points ahead of Anthony.
|
The summit of the climb was just ten kilometres from the line and so he continued to drive the pedals around, knowing that the stage win was up for grabs. However Graf and O'Brien were also digging in, the latter aware that he could take over the yellow jersey, and they finally caught and passed the Dutchman inside the last two kilometres.
Once onto the streets of Buncrana, Graf outsprinted O'Brien for the stage victory. Further back, the yellow jersey group had exploded on the slopes of Mamore, with Chris Newton - who won here four years ago - and Tony Martin (Germany Thuringer Energy) ripping clear of the others and chasing hard all the way to the line. They came in 42 seconds behind Graf and O'Brien, Newton taking the sprint for fourth. Irish duo David McCann and Stephen Gallagher came in sixth and seventh, just ahead of Gallagher's Murphy and Gunn/Newlyn Group/M. Donnelly Sean Kelly team-mate Glenn Bak, while the race leader Jesse Anthony finished 1'22 behind Graf in tenth place.
|
The race judges initially thought O'Brien was the new race leader, but a careful examination of the finishing photographs showed that Martin's race number was obscured by the gillet he was wearing. He was confirmed as the new race leader once this was factored into the calculations, while O'Brien ended the day second overall, 17 seconds back.
A disappointed Anthony slipped to third, 36 off the yellow jersey he had worn for two stages. He also conceded his best young rider lead to Martin and his KOM jersey to Van der Velde, but is likely to come out all guns blazing tomorrow in a bid to get the yellow jersey back. O'Brien is also going to go on the offensive, knowing that a good showing in the final three stages could yet produce an Irish winner.
Stage 6 will take the riders 96 kilometres to Derry. It's a mainly flat stage but the short distance is certain to result in aggressive, attacking, flat-out racing. Martin is 17 seconds clear at the top of the leaderboard but the final race victory is still quite some way away.
