Serrano best in three-man break
Rast Leads in Tour de Romandie
 |
Spaniard Ricardo Serrano (Fuji) won stage one of the Tour de Romandie after beating his two break-away companions, Lars Ytting Bak (Saxo Bank) in second and Gregory Rast (Astana) in third.
"I'm truly delighted. If anyone had told me in the morning that I'd end up winning, I wouldn't have believed it," said Serrano.
The eventual top three riders attacked after 22km and managed to stay off the front until the end of a stage shortened from 176.2km to 87km by the snowfall on the Jaunpass.
"We easily got a good rapport and worked together well," said Serrano. "The wind favored us, and I saw we could keep our gap when we had three minutes at 30km to go although I doubted it a bit with 9km to go, when the peloton closed in to within less than a minute."
"I have lost so many victories by rushing into the finish too early, so I tried to stay confident, even after my radio broke, and I was not able to hear my team manager Stefano Zanini's orders. I didn't know it, but I was following all the instructions he was telling me."
Bak accelerated first with 500m to go. Rast closed the gap, and then Serrano came around. The win brought an end to two seasons of injury and crashes that kept Serrano from achieving his goals.
"This is the reward for my combative attitude as I've never been a rider to sit in and do nothing. Winning in a ProTour race gives me confidence, because it means I'm back at the top."
With his third place, three-time Swiss road champion Rast became the new leader in the Tour de Romandie (Switzerland).
"It was hard. In the end the peloton came so close," said Rast. "I had to work hard to stay in the front as I knew that I could take over the leader's jersey from prologue winner Frantisek Rabon. Those efforts cost me the stage win, but I am happy with this jersey."
"It will be difficult to keep it, but you never know. Two years ago I won the Tour of Luxembourg, which is a hard race as well. However, the mountains here are much harder plus there is the team time trial and the differences in the top of the GC are small. Anyway, I will try to keep this jersey as long as possible. For me this is good compensation for my lost Classics season." Rast crashed in the Tour of Flanders.
Serrano took the mountains jersey and sits in second overall.
Stage 2 will lead riders in a loop around La Chaux-de-Fonds, with four categorized climbs in the final 60km.
