Spain's Francisco José Ventoso (Saunier Duval-Prodir) won the opening stage of the third Tour of Qatar Monday, outsprinting Sébastien Chavanel (Brioches La Boulangère) and Robert Hunter (Rabobank) on a warm and windy day. Along with the Doha International Grand Prix the day before, the Tour of Qatar represents the first event of the season for many riders, and the 2004 racing began just 16 kilometres after race director Jean-Marie Leblanc waived the flag.

"I'm surprised by this win, since it's only my second professional race," commented an elated Ventoso at the finish. "My team came here to win the Tour of Qatar. For now we're ahead and the whole team is very strong, so hopes are high."

Fifteen teams and 119 riders took to the start at the Sealine Beach Resort, embarking on 150 kilometres of flat but windy terrain outside of Doha. Spurred on by an early tailwind, Vlaanderen- T Interim's Koen Barbe attacked shortly after the start, prompting a chase by Jean-Patrick Nazon (Ag2r-Prévoyance) and Jörg Ludewig (Saeco). The two caught Barbe, but the break was reeled in by the peloton with Lotto-Domo at the helm.

Soon after the trio was caught, La Boulangère's Rony Martius took off in a counter move which lasted until the 56km mark. Throughout the chase, this time led by Quick.Step-Davitamon, the wind caused several splits in the field. As Alexandre Usov (Phonak) took the second bonus sprint, a large portion of the peloton trailed by 30", struggling in the stiff winds. Crashes also disrupted the flow of the race, and stage favourite Robbie McEwen (Lotto-Domo) was among those to be delayed by a tangle of bikes. With help from his teammates, McEwen was up and able to rejoin the field.

Despite strong tempos set in the finale by Ag2r, Fassa Bortolo, and Gerolsteiner, it was neo-pro Ventoso who jumped clear to take the sprint ahead of Chavanel and Hunter. Among those struggling on the first day of the tour was French sprinter Damien Nazon (Crédit Agricole), who crashed heavily in the Doha International Grand Prix on Sunday, injuring his right wrist.
