Millar makes time, Lastras holds on
By Chris Henry
David Millar put in a fine performance once more against the clock, winning today's short 14.4 kilometre individual time trial. Millar, winner of the final Tour de France time trial, is a force to be reckoned with in both short and long tests when he is in form. Today was his day as he beat Fassa Bortolo's Spanish front man Aitor Gonzalez by 12 seconds, with Phonak's Bert Grabsch a further 7" behind. In the fight for the general classification, iBanesto.com's race leader Pablo Lastras held off a strong challenge from Oscar Pereiro (Phonak) to keep his overall lead by just 10" with one stage to race.
On a short but undulating and technical course, Pereiro posed a threat to Lastas' race lead. Separated by only 22" heading into today's penultimate stage, Pereiro was on paper the better time trialist between the two, and despite the short course could hope to snatch victory by week's end. With a quick start and no lack of motivation, Pereiro quickly began to take time from Lastras, who as first on GC was the last rider to start, just behind the Phonak leader. By the halfway point, Pereiro had taken 10" from Lastras, and his chances for the victory began to look good.
Spurred on by his team director's frantic cries over the loudspeaker, Lastras didn't panic. Rolling smoothly on the open road and negotiating the numerous narrow corners perfectly, he dug deep and began to limit his losses over the second half of the parcours. Neither Lastras nor Pereiro would challenge Millar for the stage victory, but having distanced themselves from a majority of race favourites thanks to an astounding 20 minute lead gained on stage 1, the two Spaniards had only themselves- and possibly third place overall (and stage 1 winner) Carlos Garcia Quesada of Kelme- to worry about.
Out of the saddle and raging under the 1km to go banner, Lastras looked set to defend his overall lead, and by the finish managed to do just that, with a meager 10" cushion ahead of Pereiro with just one day remaining. Solid top-ten performances were also registered by Igor Gonzalez de Galdeano (ONCE-Eroski, 4th), who has been returning from injuries sustained prior to the Tour de France, and American Bobby Julich (Telekom, 7th), who still possesses a talent in races against the clock.
Friday's stage from Aranda de Duero back to Burgos is unlikely to threaten Lastras' overall lead, though with just 10" over Pereiro, iBanesto.com will have to remain vigilant all day to claim victory in this important Vuelta a España tune up.
