Stage 1 - April 27: Avenches - Avenches, 166.9km
Petacchi up to 15
|
The season is barely a third of the way through and already Alessandro Petacchi (Fassa Bortolo) has claimed 15 victories. Giancarlo Ferretti's well oiled "silver train" once again delivered Petacchi to within sight of the finish line, and once again Petacchi did his thing and blew apart the opposition to win by over a bike length from Tom Steels (Davitamon-Lotto), and several more to Andre Korff (T-Mobile). The 10 bonus seconds was almost enough to put Petacchi in the leader's jersey, but Phonak's Oscar Pereiro held onto it by the slimmest of margins.
"This success in Switzerland completes the countries in Europe where I have managed to win," said Petacchi after the stage. "The stage was hard because we raced most of it in the rain. I didn't want to risk too much, but at the end we had passed under the finish banner several times and my teammates studied it the lead up and rode to keep me out of trouble without and big risks. Tosatto went in the final kilometre, and Baldato at 600 metres to go. At 200 metres I jumped. It was a clean enough sprint. The only blemish of the whole day was Baldato's crash, fortunately without serious consequences, that happened in the final metres. I don't have the condition of San Remo, but the Giro is 10 days away and this is enough at the moment."
How it unfolded
The first stage was run over a three relatively flat loops around Avenches over a total of 167, with just two Cat. 3 climbs to break things up: the first at Misery (km 83.3), just after the first passage through Avenches, and the second at Montmagny (km 127). There were also two bonus sprints, at Payerne (km 52.6) and Salavaux (km 160.9). The weather was less than perfect, with wet conditions plaguing the riders for much of the day.

After an aggressive beginning, two riders managed to escape at the 17 km mark: Sébastien Rosseler (Quick.Step) and Ivan Ravaioli (Saunier Duval). They were chased by Laszlo Bodrogi (Credit Agricole), but the Hungarian couldn't make contact, even though he did hang on to take third in the first intermediate sprint at Payerne, where Rosseler took the maximum points ahead of Ravaioli. Rosseler also took the three seconds bonus, which moved him to within just two seconds of Oscar Pereiro's lead. Not only that, the pair had a lead of over six minutes at the sprint, which grew to 8'08 at the top of the first climb, won by Ravaioli.
That's as far as they got, as the peloton began to pick up speed in the second half of the stage, courtesy of Phonak and Fassa Bortolo. With 60 km left, the gap was down to 3'55. On the second climb of the day, Ravaioli left Rosseler and went off alone, but only had a 1'03 gap by the top of the climb, with another 40 km to travel. Rosseler was caught at km 132, and Ravaioli at km 140.

In the final 25 km, Lotto and Fassa Bortolo kept control of the peloton, and despite attacks by Daniel Becke (Illes Balears) and Sébastien Joly (Credit Agricole), the stage was destined to end in a bunch sprint. The battle for the final bonus seconds at km 161 (5 km to go) was of interest, as Brad McGee took out the sprint and the maximum 3 seconds, closely followed by Pereiro (2 seconds) and Alex Moos (1 second). That meant that Pereiro was still the leader, subject to what happened in the finishing sprint.
Fassa completely took over with 3 km left as the other sprinters battled for Petacchi's wheel, as usual. Tom Steels was able to get the prime position behind the Italian, who left it up to Tosatto, then Baldato to take him through the final kilometre. Unfortunately for Baldato, after he pulled off from his leadout, he was knocked off his bike by Angel Vicioso, who was coming up fast from behind and had nowhere to go. That also impeded Brad McGee, who faded back to 19th across the line.
Petacchi was oblivious to this, and put the power down with 200m to go to gap everyone in the bunch, with Steels a clear second and daylight a clear third.
Tomorrow's second stage starts and finishes in Fleurier, and is a little tougher than today's leg with two Cat. 2 climbs and the Cat. 1 ascent to Les Sagnettes.
