David de la Fuente of Team Scott-American Beef won the difficult uphill finish at the second stage of the Deutschland Tour, shooting out to the lead with only a few hundred metres to go. Second was Pietro Caucchioli (Crédit Agricole) ahead of Thomas Lövkvist. The top five was rounded out by Janez Brajkovic (Astana) and Columbia's Linus Gerdemann. Gerdeman still holds the leader's jersey, ahead of Lövkvist and Brajkovic.

David de la Fuente, 27, turned pro with Vini Caldirola in 2003, and joined Saunier Duval (now Scott-American Beef) in 2004. He has proved his climbing abilities by wearing the polka-dot jersey for a number of Tour de France stages in 2006 and 2008. In 2006 he won the Tour's Most Aggressive Rider award.

"The stage was damned fast and really hard at the end," said Gerdemann. "So I'm happy to be able to continue in the yellow jersey. The whole team fought hard and caught all the escapees. That was a lot of hard work."

It was a very fast race, and for a long while no one was able to get away on the overwhelmingly flat course. Finally, about halfway through the race, a foursome was able to escape: Bernhard Kohl (Gerolstener), Kasper Klostergaard (CSC), Yoann Le Boulanger (Fraincaise des Jeux) und Markel Irizar Aranburu (Euskaltel). They were never able to get more than about two minutes, but were able to stay away a long time.

Finally, with about six kilometres to go, the peloton decided to stop toying with the breakaway group and roped them in. Columbia kept control of the field, helped by Astana and Milram. That meant a lot of blue jerseys on the front.

With about two kilometres to go, they ran into the only ranked climb of the day, the category three Hesselberg. As the field started up, Johan van Summeren of Silence-Lotto was the first to attack, but he soon tired on the climb which seemed to be much steeper and harder than anticipated. The peloton fell apart as it ground its way up.

Christophe Le Mevel (Crédit Agricole) was the next to go, and was soon passed by Rigoberto Uran of Caisse d'Epargne, who built up enough of a lead that he looked like the sure winner. But the last kilometre was steep and seeming unending. With about five hundred metres to go, de la Fuente led a group past Uran and flew by the tiring Colombian to pull away and take the win.

The Spaniard won by two seconds ahead of a high-powered group of five, which included the top four riders in the race. That guaranteed no change in the top of the overall rankings.
