5th Grande Prémio M. R. Cortez/Mitsubishi - 2.3
Portugal, April 23-25, 2002
Stage 1 - April 23: Cacém - Massamá, 161.2 km
Barbosa wins first stage sprint
Portuguese rider Candido Barbosa (LA Pecol) has won the sprint for the first stage of the GP Mitsubishi, that finished in Massamá today. Barbosa was faster than David Fernandez (Fuenlabrada) and Angel Edo (Milaneza-MSS), with around 50 riders arriving in the same time.
115 riders started from the Stand MR Cortez this morning in sunny 22 degree conditions. After just 9 km, Miguel Soro (Matesica-Abóboda) made the first attack of the day, building a lead of 1'57 before he was chased down by the ASC - Vila do Conde team.
That set the scene for several more attacks, with Joaquim Sampaio (Boavista), Jorge Capitan (Fuenlabrada), Helder Silva (Cantanhede), and Hugo Lucio (P. Ravessa) succeeding in breaking the shackles at kilometre 42. Their advantage grew to nearly 6 minutes, with Oscar Romero (Pepolim & Irmăos) and Pavel Brutt (Itera) deciding to chase on their own at kilometre 76.
It was a fruitless exercise, and Romero realised this after 10 km and went back to the peloton. Brutt dangled in front for another 20 kilometres before he too was caught. By this stage, the leaders were only 3 minutes in front with 45 kilometres to go.
The quartet managed to stay away to win the final intermediate sprint in Ramada, but was caught with 14 km to go. That was enough for the sprinters teams to set it up for a bunch sprint, which was won by Barbosa from Fernandez and Edo.
Tomorrow's second stage is from Pęro Pinheiro-Cacem, over 181.4 kilometres.
