Second win for Petacchi
Fassa Bortolo's Alessandro Petacchi has scored his second stage win in the Vuelta a Aragon, beating Angel Edo (Milaneza) and Fabiano Fontanelli (Mercatone Uno) in a bunch sprint at the end of stage 4. The front bunch contained 96 riders, including all the favourites, and there were no changes to the general classification with Leonardo Piepoli (iBanesto) holding the jersey ahead of Gilberto Simoni (Saeco) and Manuel Beltran (Team Coast).
The fourth stage from La Muela to Borja was considerably less hilly than the three preceding ones, thus the 43.5 km/h average speed was no surprise. From the outset, the stage was fast and aggressive, with a group of 13 riders getting away after 5 kilometres, before being recaptured at kilometre 34. An impressive 51.7 kilometres were covered in the first hour, assisted by a gradual downhill.
Not long after the sprint at Remolinos (km 57), there was an attack by Francisco Cerezo (Labarca 2 Café Baqué). The peloton relaxed and let him go, and he was five minutes in front of the group by the second sprint at Borja (km 96), having covered this distance in under two hours.
On the Cat. 3 climb of Alto Balcón del Buste (km 108), Cerezo began to lose ground to the peloton. He crossed the summit 3'40 in front of Daniel Atienza (Cofidis), with another 30 seconds back to the peloton. By the next climb, Alto Sta. Cruz de Moncayo (km 129), Cerezo's advantage was down to 2'05 to Atienza, with Pedro Cardoso, and Angel Edo leading the Milaneza team over, 2'55 behind.
With 28 kilometres to go, Mikel Astarloza (Ag2r) and Luis Perez (Cofidis) attacked in pursuit of Cerezo, catching him a couple of kilometres later. However the three could only survive for 13 kilometres in front of the peloton, which was intent on a sprint finish.
A couple of attacks by Alberto Lopez de Munain (Euskaltel) and Cesar Garcia Calvo (Labarca) were unsuccessful in the final 10 km, and the stage finished in a mass sprint. Once again it was Petacchi who had the best legs over Edo and Fontanelli, to record his fifth season win.
The Vuelta a Aragon concludes tomorrow with another relatively flat stage from Colchón Relax (La Muela) to Zaragoza over 149 km. It's difficult to see anyone preventing Leonardo Piepoli from taking his second consecutive overall victory in this race.
