Katusha captures second straight stage
 |
Team Katusha's formidable duo of Geert Steegmans and Robbie McEwen once again proved too quick for their competition at the Challenge de Mallorca's second day of racing with McEwen taking the victory in a field sprint over compatriot Graeme Brown (Rabobank) and Frenchman Guillaume Blot (Cofidis, Le Credit En Ligne).
"It was a dangerous and difficult sprint, because the last meters went downhill," said McEwen. "I want to thank my teammates because they did a very good job. Steegmans launched me in the last meters and in the last corner, about 500 meters to go, he was very fast so I decided to start just after the corner. I did a very long sprint".
Katusha, with the leader's jersey on Steegmans' shoulders, worked hard to bring back two breaks during the stage. Four riders, Vladimir Isaychev (Xacobeo Galicia), Emmanuel Ruitenbeek (Team Kuota - Indeland), Ronan Van Zandbeek (Van Vliet EBH Elshof) and Jesús Rosendo (Andalucia Cajasur) escaped in the opening kilometers and built a maximum lead of six minutes before being brought back by the peloton after 70 kilometers of racing.
Another break of four, containing Javier Ramírez (Andalucia Cajasur), Romain Sicard and Mikel Ilundain (Orbea) and the irrepressible Ronan Van Zandbeek (Van Vliet EBH Elshof), escaped at the 85 kilometer mark and were allowed nearly 80 kilometers of freedom before being absorbed with 13 kilometers to go.
Caisse d'Epargne took up the pace for their sprinter José Joaquin Rojas, but Katusha proved to have too much horsepower over the closing kilometers.
"The team did a lot of hard work," said Katusha directeur sportif Orlando Maini. "We had to catch the breakaways practically alone and, looking at the results of today and yesterday, I understand the peloton's actions."
