Stage 2 - August 5: Salas-Bajas - Sabinanigo, 126 km

Vastaranta loses lead

The second stage of the Tour of the Pyrenees offered a more traditional Pyreneean parcours passing the Puerto de El Pino and Serrablo on the road from Bodegas Enate de Salas Bajas to Sabiñánigo. 24 riders formed a front group but leader Jukka Vastaranta did not manage to follow on the climbs that finally tore the field apart.

Ex-pro Dominique Rault won a two up sprint in Sabiñánigo over 24 year old Fernando Torres of Colchón Relax with the latter taking the overall lead in the race. On stage 3 the race enters France with the cols Aubisque, Soulor and Cauterets.
