A fifth place in today's tough fourth stage of the Tour Méditerranéen saw Quick Step's Paolo Bettini finally claim the overall leader's jersey. Bettini finished 11 seconds behind winner David Moncoutie (Cofidis), who beat mountains leader Miguel Martinez (Phonak) and Michael Boogerd (Rabobank) for the honours.

The race's early break came from stage 2 winner Emmanuel Magnien (Brioches La Boulangère) and US Postal's Benoit Joachim. The pair gained an advantage of over five minutes with 30km to race, but neither was a serious contender for the climb of the Mont Faron. Magnien dropped Joachim as the peloton began to close in, and was joined by eventual winner Moncoutié, who bridged across in the first of several attacks he would launch en route to the stage victory.

As the race hit the Mont Faron, Laurent Brochard (Ag2r) made his own effort to get clear, brought back into the fold by Bettini's Quick-Step teammates Frank Vandenbroucke and Richard Virenque. Moncoutié attacked several times, pulled back by the diminishing lead group. Brochard kept the pace high while others tried their hand, including Moncoutié's teammate Andreï Kivilev, until a final jump by Moncoutié snapped the elastic.

"The Mont Faron has been a good course for me," Moncoutié commented after his victory. "I'm very happy to have won, on what is a somewhat mythic climb. I attacked two or three times, and in the last kilometre I got away."

Taking fifth place on the stage, Paolo Bettini assumed the overall race lead. "Today my aim was to get to the top of the general classification," said Bettini. "My teammates were fantastic in helping me throughout the stage. At about 3.5 kilometres from the finish line, when the leader's group was made up of just six riders, Brochard started attacking me; I thought about the climb and remembered that it was gentler towards the end. I ground my teeth and started using my head, and this is how I managed to catch up with him during the easier section of the climb."

"That said, the race still isn't won. In fact, the Tour Méditerranéen winner will be decided on Sunday during the difficult team time trial over 42 kilometres between Gemonos to Marsiglia. Both myself and my teammates will still have to give our very all."

Bettini started the 110 km stage with just a 1 second deficit to Bram De Groot, who had worn the leader's jersey since winning stage 1. However the slopes of Mont Faron proved to be too tough for the 28 year old Dutchman, and he finished in 30th place, 1'35 down. That means that Laurent Brochard (Ag2r) is now into second overall behind Bettini, with Sylvain Chavanel (Brioches La Boulangère) moving up to third place.

The fifth stage takes place tomorrow over 114 km between La Garde and Berre l'Etang.
