Italy's Davide Rebellin (Gerolsteiner) today became the Tour du Haut Var's first repeat winner since compatriot Daniele Nardello (Mapei) took back-to-back victories at the French event in 2000, 2001. While the race was only a preparation event for Rebellin, he out-paced breakaway rivals Rinaldo Nocentini (Ag2r-La Mondiale) and Alexandre Botcharov (Crédit Agricole) in the final sprint to claim victory in the race's 40th edition.

"Davide has made a very good impression," said Gerolsteiner sports director Christian Henn. "He felt good and could make something out of that. That was really cool."

Rebellin was modest about is efforts in the 197.3-kilometre race around Draguignan. "My form is very satisfactory," he said. "That was a strong team performance."

Anthony Geslin (Bouygues Telecom) was the first Frenchman across the line at his home race, while 2005 winner Philippe Gilbert (Française des Jeux) claimed fifth spot.
