Stage 6 - May 22: Castelnaudary - Castelnaudary individual time trial

Arndt takes fifth stage win for Saturn

Team Saturn report

Apocalyptic weather on the roads around Castellnaudary, and the cold pouring rain was a major factor in today's 32 kilometre race of truth. For the third consecutive day a Saturn rider took first spot on the podium, this time Judith Arndt. The yellow jersey, Ina Teutenberg (Saturn ) finished in fourth to maintain her lead of the tour.

The course started by a long 10 kilometre uphill section, followed by a fast down hill and then a flat section only to go up again and then to a very fast return to Castellnaudary. Arndt won the stage with a time of 46'01, averaging 41 km/hr.

Race leader Teutenberg, better known for her sprinting skills than her time trialing skills, showed that the yellow jersey can bring determination to a whole new level. Teutenberg, racing on team-mate Catherine Marsal's time trial bike for all advantage possible, finished a very impressive fourth.

As the race played out, Mirjam Melchers (Farm Frites-Hartol) had the best split time of 23:58, with Arndt was at only four seconds behind her. In a true test of will, the two competitors stayed almost equal until the last kilometre when Arndt moved ahead of Melchers, finishing by two seconds up on the eventual second place Dutchwoman.

Second place in the overall, Olga Zabellinskaia (Itera) finished a very strong third, 49 seconds behind Arndt, and took 15 seconds from Teutenberg. Arndt's ride moved her into second in the overall classification, 1:20 behind Arndt.

Tomorrow's 108 kilometers promise to make for a hard stage around Castellnaudary with a lot of short but sharp hills and narrow roads as is usual for the area. The entire peloton is hoping for better weather as they face the menu of two QOM sprints on category two climbs.
