Erik Zabel wins his stage
Petacchi beaten in bunch sprint
By Hernán Alvarez Macías

Erik Zabel (Telekom) has won the 10th stage of the Vuelta España, 194 km between Andorra and Sabadell, beating Alessandro Petacchi (Fassa Bortolo) and Fabrizio Guidi (Team Bianchi) by a few metres in the bunch sprint. The stage was ridden at a high average speed of 46.4 km/h, and ONCE's Isidro Nozal retained the golden leaders' jersey thanks to more excellent work by his team.
Zabel finally defeated an almost unbeatable Petacchi after the front riders of the peloton caught the breakaway in the last kilometre in Sabadell. The German told Spanish TV "It was a miracle to beat Petacchi. I'm very happy to win because I felt very strong and I rode with some advantage knowing the final meters were a little uphill. I've been here in the Semana Catalana and that's why I know it. I will try to win some more stages in the Vuelta for my team and for myself".
Race leader Isidro Nozal is still downplaying his role in the race, despite the fact that every day he is looking more like the winner of the Vuelta. "There's not a single leader in our team," he said. "We, the nine riders, are the leaders". About the stage he said "the beginning was rather aggressive. I was tense all the time and I couldn't rest at all, as many people think we do in these kinds of days."
 |
Defending champion Aitor González (Fassa Bortolo) is improving as the race goes on. Currently he is sitting in eighth position on GC. "I can't fix the past, now I must think ahead and try to improve all I can to end in the highest position I can," he said.
As to who would win the Vuelta, Gonzalez said "For me, Nozal has a 90 percent chance of winning, the rest just 10. Isidro proved he is so very strong, not only in the mountains but also in the time trials. But there's still hope. Everybody is able to have a bad day on the Pandera or on Sierra Nevada and we will be there to make the most of it."
How it unfolded
172 riders started the 10th stage, after both Richard Virenque (Quick Step-Davitamon) and Sergio Pérez (Labarca 2-Café Baqué) were expelled yesterday after using their team cars on a climb. The second directors of both squads were also ejected by the organization. In the first kilometres Antonio Bucciero (Saeco) and José Azevedo (ONCE-Eroski) abandoned the race.
 |
The right breakaway was the one produced by Juan Miguel Mercado (iBanesto.com), Oscar Sevilla (Kelme-Costa Blanca), Fabian Jeker (Milaneza-MSS), Fabrizio Guidi (Team Bianchi), Cristian Moreni (Alessio) and Gorka González (Euskaltel-Euskadi) before kilometre 50.
At the feed zone (km 98.8), their gap to the peloton was 2'25. At the Alto de Calders (km 137.5; 56.5 km to go), the only climb of the stage, the front riders were 2'36 ahead of the peloton. However, Fassa Bortolo, ONCE-Eroski and Telekom increased the tempo and caught the leaders before the last intermediate sprint at Castellterçol (less than 40 km to Sabadell).
The peloton lasted together for a few kilometres before Karsten Kroon (Rabobank) attacked and got a small gap. His teammate Beat Zberg and César García Calvo (Labarca 2-Café Baqué) joined Kroon with 30 km to go. The speed of the race was very fast at that point, and with 12 km to go the trio had a little gap of 16 seconds to the peloton.
 |
Other riders tried to break up the race including Luis Pérez (Cofidis), Igor Astarloa (Saeco) and George Hincapie (USPS), but Angel Vicioso (ONCE) was there marking and slowing the breakaway. At the end, all the leaders were caught with less than one kilometre to the finish and Petacchi and Zabel could have their bunch sprint. Today, the German prevailed after coming off Petacchi's wheel with around 200m to go.
September 16 - Rest day 1
Tomorrow will be the first rest day. Some riders like Angel Casero and Oscar Sevilla will be very thankful for this pause. Casero will go to Barcelona to assess one of his knees that has been causing him some trouble. The Bianchi rider told Spanish radio "I'll see a doctor to see if I can push hard or not in the next days. I came very well prepared for this race, but I had bad results. I must recover." And Sevilla will have one more day to get over his physical problems. The Kelme rider had promised he would get to Valencia where Kelme will spend Tuesday, and he kept his word.
