Vacansoleil's Slovenian speedster Borut Bozic took his second consecutive stage of the Tour of Belgium Friday, besting Katusha's Danilo Napolitano and yellow jersey Kristof Goddaert (Topsport Vlaanderen). With his win and time bonus, Bozic extended his lead in the overall classification to 14 seconds over stage 1 winner Serguei Ivanov (Katusha).
"The team protected my leader's jersey the entire day, and I'm glad I could finish it off. This is a great victory for the Vacansoleil team," Bozic said.
After two days of drizzle, the sun finally decided to pay the Tour of Belgium a visit for the 181.7km journey from Knokke-Heist to the Antwerp suburb of Temse.
There was a series of attacks from the first kilometre, but with the first intermediate sprint at km 45, there was interest in keeping the race together. Lars Boom (Rabobank) took the first sprint to pull within 7 points of Jong Vlaanderen's Sep Vanmarcke in the red jersey race.
It wasn't until 78km in that a group could get clearance: Filip Meirhaeghe (Landbouwkrediet-Colnago), Ken Vanmarcke (Jong Vlaanderen - Bauknecht) the older brother of Sep, Mathieu Criquielion (Willems Verandas) and Jean Zen (Palmans Cras).
Ken took the second rush points ahead of Zen and Meirhaeghe to protect his younger brother's lead as the quartet built its maximum advantage of just over five minutes.
The Vacansoleil and Topsport teams were interested in bringing the leaders back, and slowly but surely whittled into their advantage. By the time the race reached the final circuit which passed over several sections of pavé, they had 1:28.
The leaders were caught with 15km to go, and a series of counterattacks flew. Koen de Kort (Skil-Shimano) launched the move and was joined by Dominique Cornu (Quick Step) and Marco Cattaneo (LPR Brakes-Farnese Vini), and chased by Michiel Elijzen (Silence-Lotto) and Alessandro Maserati (Ceramica Flamini).
The speed was far too high for the break to succeed, and Cornu was the last to be caught just 2km from the line.
With the sprint into the wind, Bozic timed his jump to perfection and powered to his second win ahead of Napolitano and Goddaert. Rabobank's Mat Hayman was fourth.
