Marcus Ljunqvist takes option on Overall Victory

Marcus Ljungqvist (EDS-fakta) delivered a real masterpiece in the second stage of the 62nd Tour of Luxemburg: 190 km in the lead, stage winner by almost 3 minutes on the next rider, brilliant riding and thus big favourite for the final victory.

In the peloton his team EDS-fakta was doing a perfect job controlling the race and they saw Ljungqvist's lead growing up to seven minutes. Ljungqvist had attacked after 15km of racing and only the French World champion Robert Sassone (Cofidis) was prepared to stay with him for 25 km. In the finale, the strong Swedish rider left his colleague behind. The sprint of the peloton was won by Zabel (Telekom), in front of Gert Vanderaerden (Palmans Collstrop).
