Finetto gets his revenge
Impey succeeds unfortunate Loosli in yellow
By Jean-François Quénet in Finike
 |
Second year pro Daryl Impey of Barloworld described it as "kind of a hollow victory" as he took the lead at the Tour of Turkey over from Lampre's David Loosli, who crashed with 25 kilometres to go and and finished three minutes behind. Only 44 riders contested the bunch sprint won by Mauro Finetto who doubled up after winning the opening stage on Sunday in Istanbul. It was a well deserved stage win for CSF who occupied the front of the scene almost all day.
"I was very keen to bring another stage win to my team after losing the yellow jersey two days ago," Finetto commented. "It happened because of a stomach problem I had under the rain. I was very motivated to win this race overall and this second stage win is a nice revenge. I didn't expect to win two stages here. The Tour of Turkey offers to us wonderful landscapes. It's a very difficult race as well because the surface of the roads doesn't allow us to ride fast."
However, they covered 194km at the average speed of 44.002km/h – and this was calculated considering that the 10 kilometres of neutral zone was included in the total distance of the race. "We rode like crazy from start to finish," said Impey who showed that he has picked the level of a true pro cyclist at his second attempt with the Barloworld squad.
"Loosli crashed behind me," Impey described. "Nobody knows what would have happened hadn't he crashed. It was very unfortunate for him. As for myself, I tried to stay out of trouble. On these kinds of roads with so many curves and a lot of wind alongside the coast, anything can happen. Anyway, the race is far from over. I just know that we have a solid team with Giampaolo Cheula and Paolo Longo Borghini who did a lot of work today at the head of the peloton when the number 2 [Xacobeo-Galicia's Gustavo Cesar Veloso] was away."
Stage 6 to Finike saw the return of Danilo Hondo, who is competing in Turkey for the first time under the colours of his new team PSK Whirlpool. He very nearly had the stage win, but made the mistake of putting his hands up in the air too early. He took second to Finetto, much to his dismay.
"I cried for a little while," the German admitted as he went on stage to get his flowers and medal. "It was a very long sprint from 400 metres. I looked on my right hand side and I was sure there was nobody." But Finetto came out of the box from nowhere. The Italian opted for the right tactic as there was a headwind at the finish. "I've got mixed feelings," Hondo added. "I'm disappointed to have missed the win, but this is my first race back and I realize that I'm ready for the coming races in Germany." Prior to competing again, he trained hard together with his close friend Andreas Klöden.
How it unfolded
 |
The race started on such a high pace that no attack was transformed into a breakaway until the riders passed the sprint at km 70, where Benjamin Stauder (Neotel) preceded Vitaly Butts (Lampre) and Francisco Pacheco Torres (Contentpolis-Ampo). After the sprint, Marco Frapporti (CSF) and Michael Van Staeyen (Rabobank) were the first to manage to create a significant escape. But there was no good cooperation between them. Therefore, Frapporti preferred to go solo.
Frapporti got a maximum lead of 2:50 over the peloton as it was out of question for many riders to give up. Filippo Savini (CSF) and Gustavo Cesar Veloso (Xacobeo-Galicia) made it across to Frapporti. The three leaders were 1:06 ahead of the peloton with 53km to go but Frapporti had spent too much energy.
Behind Savini and Cesar Veloso, there were many attacks at the head of the peloton. Yellow jersey David Loosli (Lampre) and green jersey Daryl Impey (Barloworld) were attentive and never far from the front. Six riders had some real hopes to make it across to the leading duo: Luca Barla (Milram), Ruggero Marzoli (Acqua e Sapone), Pascal Hungerbühler (Vorarlberg-Corratec), Radoslav Rogina (Loborika), Alessandro Proni (ISD) and Giampaolo Cheula (Barloworld).

Savini took the Turkish Beauty sprint ahead of Cesar Veloso 29km before the finish. They stopped their effort just after that as the peloton was just behind them. As soon as the junction was made, Davide Ricci Bitti (ISD) launched a counter attack. Roger Beuchat (Neotel) joined him.
With 25km to go, race leader David Loosli (Lampre) crashed with Davide Malacarne (Quick Step) and his team-mate Vitaly Butts who abandoned the race. Loosli was left without team-mates until Volodymyr Zagorodny finally waited for him but it was too late. He would never make it back to the bunch.
Ricci Bitti and Beuchat got caught with 5km to go. It went down to a bunch sprint of 44 riders, won by former yellow jersey Mauro Finetto (CSF) ahead of Danilo Hondo (PSK Whirlpool). Daryl Impey who finished in 6th position became the new leader of the Tour of Turkey.
