Castaño loses the lead
|
Carlos Castaño couldn't hold onto his leader's jersey in the sixth stage of the Volta a Catalunya, won by Liquigas' Matej Mugerli from Thor Hushovd (Credit Agricole) and Manuel Quinziato (Liquigas). Castaño finally cracked on the Alt De Sant Grau, losing five minutes and the lead to David Cañada (Saunier Duval). But the race isn't over yet, as there is still one more stage to go and Santiago Botero is only two seconds behind Cañada.
How it unfolded
The sixth stage in Manlleu started with 176 riders, and the pace was on from the outset. By km 13, the bunch had split into three groups, and at the top of the cat. 2 Alt de la Font Negra (km 19), Francisco Lara (Andalucía-Paul Versan) won the points ahead of Oscar Pereiro (Caisse d'Epargne-Illes Balears) and Ludovic Turpin (AG2R). The peloton had reorganised into two groups at this stage, with Castaño in the wrong group.
|
At the sprint in Sant Hilari Sacalm (km 45), it was Pereiro leading and Tondo across. Also in the 56 rider front group were Santiago Botero, Francisco Mancebo, Joaquin Rodríguez, Christophe Moreau, Denis Menchov, Vladimir Karpets and David Cañada - all dangerous on GC. Behind, Kaiku wasn't getting any help to try to close the gap.
After 107 km, the front group had 2'55 over the leader's peloton, and Cañada was the virtual leader. Saunier Duval, Phonak and AG2R were working in front, while behind, Kaiku had some assistance from Andalucía-Paul Versan, managing to get the gap back to 2'00 after 128 km. On the Cat. 1 Alt De Sant Grau (km 133), Joaquin Rodriguez (Illes Balears) and Paco Lara (Andalusia-Paul Versan) crossed first, with a small advantage over the rest of the front group. Behind, Castaño did his best to set the pace, but he could not close the gap.
|
Rodriguez and Lara came back to the lead group, while Castaño's chase lost more an more time to the finish, and he eventually ended 5'01 behind. In the sprint for stage honours, Oscar Pereiro led out, before Mugerli came around with a strong kick to win. Hushovd was a solid second, ahead of Quinziato.
Tomorrow's final stage is 121.6 km from Lloret de Mar to Barcelona, and contains two cat. 3 climbs and one cat. 2, the latter coming with 20 km to go.
