Stage 1 - Saturday, September 6: Gijon - Gijon, 28 km TTT
Igor wins first golden jersey
By Hernán Alvarez Macías in Gijón
 |
Igor González de Galdeano is the first leader of the Vuelta España 2003 after his team, ONCE-Eroski, won the opening team time trial stage in the streets of Gijón (Asturias). The US Postal Service Berry Floor team was second followed by iBanesto.com. The yellow squad took 32 minutes and 1 second to ride the 28 kilometres in the streets of Gijón, 10 seconds faster than US Postal and 24 seconds ahead of iBanesto.com.
iBanesto was the first team to start, and it held the best time for much of the stage. It wasn't until ONCE started 'flying' that their time was bettered. ONCE raced in an extraordinary manner, losing Jörg Jaksche and Mikel Pradera on the first climb. These two finished up a long way behind their teammates. Another rider who bit the dust was Aitor González (Fassa Bortolo), who had a problem with his bike and had to change it about one kilometre before the finish line. Some of his teammates waited, but Aitor lost a good 20 seconds in the resultant confusion.
ONCE-Eroski dominated this opening stage from beginning to end. They had the best time at each of the intermediate checks, demonstrating their strength in these kinds of races. At the first intermediate check at 3.6 kilometres, they were 3 seconds faster than iBanesto.com; by halfway they were 16 seconds faster than US Postal, which had picked up its tempo; and by the finish the gap was 10 seconds to USPS, who were aiming to put José Luis Rubiera in the leader's jersey if possible.

As ONCE rode across the finish line, Igor González's teammates left him to cross the line first as the number one rider of his squad. Just the same as last year, ONCE has the first leader of the Vuelta in its ranks. Joseba Beloki was first in 2002 and now it's the turn of González de Galdeano, who dons the golden jersey for the second time in his career.
Stage 2 - September 7: Gijón - Cangas de Onís, 148 km
The Vuelta continues with a 148 km stage between Gijón and Cangas de Onís. There are three climbs in it: Alto de la Madera (3rd category, 350m), Alto de la Faya de los Lobos (2nd category, 720m) and Alto Mirador del Fito (1st category, 700m). It won't be a typical mountain stage, but it has an uphill finish. There are also three intermediate sprints in Sama de Langreo, Pedrosa and Gobiendes.
The climbers will attack because the route should be favourable for them. Oscar Sevilla from Kelme, Roberto Heras from US Postal or David Etxebarria from Euskaltel are some of the riders who will try to steal the golden jersey to Igor González de Galdeano. They will have to be very aggressive in the coming days if they want to end up first in Madrid. We will see how González de Galdeano defends his first position in the mountains, maybe not the most favourable place considering his characteristics.
