Stage 3 - June 18: La Pobla De Mafumet - Andorra (Cortals D'encamp), 216.6 Km
Heras takes the lead
Kintana gives Labarca 2 its first win
Defending champion Roberto Heras (US Postal-Berry Floor) has taken the overall lead in the Volta a Catalunya after the first tough mountain stage that finished atop the Special Category climb of Cortals d'Encamp in Andorra. Heras finished fourth in the stage, 2'42 behind winner Aitor Kintana, who gave his Labarca 2-Cafe Baque team its first ever professional win. Second across the line was Michael Rasmussen (Rabobank) at 2'00, followed by Jose Antonio Pecharroman (Paternina) at 2'09.
It was a good performance by Heras, who will be Lance Armstrong's right hand man in the mountain stages of the Tour next month. Although Kintana and Rasmussen are no threats on GC, Heras did lose a little time to Jose Antonio Pecharroman, who is now second overall at 9 seconds. The remaining candidates for the overall are all at least two minutes behind now.
"The performance of Pecharroman on the Encamp climb is nothing extraordinary," declared Heras. "He already showed with his victory in the Euskal Bizikleta that he is in top form and the climb to the Andorran station confirmed this. He set a very strong rhythm and I couldn't keep following him without running into problems. Despite that, I controlled it well and the result was that I achieved an objective which was to take the leader's jersey."
Today's stage was considered the Queen stage of the Volta, over 216 kilometres of very mountainous territory. After 36 km of racing, a breakaway went containing a number of riders who had lost too much time yesterday to be a threat on GC. the break included Joaquin Rodriguez (ONCE), Javier Pascual Llorente (Kelme), Santiago Botero (Telekom), Jose Ivan Gutierrez and Xabier Zandio (iBanesto.com), Michael Rasmussen (Rabobank), Oscar Laguna (Colchon Relax-Fuenlabrada), Xavier Tondo (Paternina), Aitor Kintana and Alberto Hierro (Labarca 2-Cafe Baque), and gained a maximum lead of 7'34 by the 144th kilometre.
On the climb of La Comella (km 200), Kintana attacked with iBanesto's Jose Ivan Gutierrez and Xabier Zandio, and the three held a 3'40 lead to the peloton at the top, with 20 km of racing to go. Rasmussen was fourth over the top, and eventually caught and passed Gutierrez and Zandio on the final climb. Behind him, Pecharroman attacked on La Comella and was joined by Heras, Blanco and Garrido in time for the final climb of Cortals d'Encamp.
At the foot of the climb, Kintana had a few minutes' lead on the Heras quartet, with the remnants of the break in between, including Rasmussen. To his credit, Kintana didn't crack on the climb and was able to preserve 2'00 to Rasmussen and 2'09 to Pecharroman, who was the first of the chasers across the line after attacking at the halfway point. Heras was next, some 30" later, having done enough to take the leader's jersey.
Tomorrow's fourth stage from Andorra La Vella to Llivia is no easy one either, taking the riders over three Cat. 1 climbs and one Cat. 2. Heras will have to watch Pecharroman, who showed in the Euskal Bizikleta that he is a rider to be reckoned with on the climbs.
