Bozic takes stage and leader's jersey
|
Borut Bozic (Vacansoleil) sprinted to victory in stage two of the Tour of Belgium on Thursday, avoiding a crash in the closing metres of the bunch gallop to the line. Italian Alberto Ongarato (LPR Brakes-Farnese Vin) followed in second place while Graeme Brown (Rabobank) finished third.
With the time bonuses awarded for the stage win, Bozic takes over the race lead from stage one winner Serguei Ivanov (Team Katusha).
Besides the crash in the final metres of the stage, Robbie McEwen (Team Katusha) struck a road sign with two kilometres remaining and crashed heavily. He suffered serious damage to his left knee, tearing ligaments and tendons, which may end the Australian's career.
Early in the stage, after only 18 kilometres of racing, five riders escaped: Geert Omloop (Palmans Cras), Fabio Negri (LPR Brakes), Olivier Pardini (Willems Verandas), Sep Vanmarcke (Jong Vlaanderen-Bauknecht) and Vladimir Duma (Ceramica Flaminia - Bossini Docce). The quintet worked well together and managed to gain an advantage of 8:00 over the peloton with 106 kilometres remaining to the finish in Knokke-Heist.
Under the impetus of Team Katusha and Silence-Lotto at the head of the peloton, the break's lead steadily came down. The quintet led by four minutes with 60 kilometres to go, three minutes with 50 kilometres remaining and only one minute with 40 kilometres left to race. Two kilometres later the leading five-man break was absorbed by the field.
A 14-rider break escaped with 20 kilometres to go, gaining a maximum advantage of 17 seconds, but the teams of the sprinters negated their effort with eight kilometres remaining setting up the field sprint to decide the stage.
