Zberg takes stage and the lead
|
Beat Zberg gave Gerolsteiner a stage win and took over the general classification from fellow Swiss Fabian Cancellara (Fassa Bortolo), after pipping Frank Vandenbroucke (Fassa Bortolo), who had attacked solo in the last kilometre, on the line. Miguel Martin Perdiguero (Saunier Duval) took third place after 160 kilometres of tough racing in stiff winds. Splits in the peloton reduced the lead group to just 27 riders, with additional groups coming home several minutes back. Erik Zabel was among those caught in the second split, thus missing a chance for redemption in the sprint after a close second place yesterday.
It was Gonzalo Bayarri of Phonak who took the early initiative to embark on a solo break, going clear after 35 kilometres and building a maximum lead of some four minutes before been pulled back by the fast-moving field with 60 kilometres still to race. A steady stream of counter attacks followed, but no major moves could break free. The day was also marked by several crashes, including a tumble for Rafael Casero (Luis Perez (Cofidis) and Rafael Casero (Saunier Duval), each of whom was suspected to have fractured his clavicle.

American Levi Leipheimer (Rabobank), showing more of the good form displayed at Paris-Nice, went on the attack as the finish drew near, taking Egoi Martinez (Euskaltel-Euskadi) and Francisco Cabello (Comunidad Valenciana-Kelme) for company. However after Leipheimer led the trio over the summit of the Alto de Pedrafita, the break did not last long in the stiff wind. Nor did Martinez' teammate Iker Flores, who tried his own ill-fated counter shortly after.
Another active rider was Alejandro Valverde, a heavy favourite for the final classification. The young Kelme leader took the first mountain points and finished the day with another top ten finish in the sprint.
Wednesday's stage 3 could provide another chance for a bunch sprint with just two climbs on the menu, but the second category Alto de Sant Bertomeu lying just 24 kilometres from the finish in Motcada-Reixac could leave some sprinters behind.
