Dumoulin wins, as Wiggins retires
Jean Delatour's Samuel Dumoulin has won the fourth stage of the Tour de l'Avenir, run over a very selective 234 km parcours. The Frenchman beat Thomas Lövkvist (Swedish National Team) in a two man sprint, with the latter taking over the leader's jersey after the main bunch finished at 32 seconds. Overnight leader Brad Wiggins (FDJeux.com) pulled out after being dropped in the first half of the stage.
Stage 4 began under cloudy conditions and a high tempo, as many riders tried to establish the early break of the day. A group of 13 riders got clear after 22 km: Christophe Le Mevel and Eric Leblacher (Crédit Agricole), Josu Silloniz (Euskaltel-Euskadi), Preben Van Hecke (Quick Step), Benoît Vaugrenard (FDJeux.com), Christophe Edaleine (Jean Delatour), Anthony Charteau and double stage winner Sébastien Chavanel (Brioches La Boulangère), Jukka Vastaranta (Rabobank TT3), Elnathan Heizmann (German National Team), Wim Vanhuffel (Vlaanderen-T Interim), Loïc Lamouller (Big Mat-Auber 93), Gustavo Cesar Veloso (Carvalhelhos-Boavista), Jonas Holmkvist and Mikael Segersall (Swedish National Team).
No-one felt like chasing hard so early, and the gap increased to 6'00 after 48 kilometres. The lead increased a little over the next 50 km, but by the Col de Massoubre (km 96) it was still 6'20. The pack split on this climb, leaving race leader Wiggins behind, and the FDJeux.com rider abandoned 10 km later.
The gap continued to fall, as the leading group shed Fernandez, Edaleine, Chavanel and Segersall on the Côte de Mauriac. By the top of the climb, the bunch was only 2'10 behind the front group. On the Côte d'Ally with 55 km to go, Cesar Veloso attacked, but could not stay clear and was caught by the rest of the break.
The bunch got close just before the last climb, the Col de la Sapinière, with eight riders (Le Mevel, Silloniz, Van Hecke, Vaugrenard, Vastaranta, Lamouller, Cesar Veloso, Holmkvist) holding a 30" lead on a group with Dumoulin and Pierrick Fedrigo, with the bunch at 1'20. Silloniz, Lamouller and Veloso attacked on the climb, and the trio held a 30" lead over the top. The groups behind merged as Dumoulin set off in pursuit of the three leaders, catching them with 25 km to go.
The race wasn't decided yet however, as Mederel and Lövkvist counter attacked the bunch to catch the front four with 17 km to go. The six leaders didn't stay together for long however, as Dumoulin and Lövkvist went clear with 15 km left to stay away for the win, with Dumoulin accounting for the Swede in the sprint. Half a minute behind them, Jukka Vastaranta (Rabobank) led the bunch home for third.
