Who needs Cipo when you've got Bennati?

As if to show the Tour Med organisers that there is more to Domina Vacanze-Elitron than Mario Cipollini, the squad's youngest rider Daniele Bennati has taken the fifth stage from La Garde to Berre l'Etang in a bunch sprint. The 22 year old beat yesterday's stage winner Baden Cooke (FDJeux.com) and Norwegian Thor Hushovd (Credit Agricole) by a clear margin. The race lead stayed with Quick Step's Paolo Bettini, who finished sixth today in his always consistent manner.

Bennati turned pro with Cipollini's team last year, and won stages in the Tour of Austria and the Regio Tour. Today's victory was set up by the best lead out team in the world, who showed the organisers that they deserved to be in this race after having been excluded then reinstated when Cipollini decided not to race.

"I am very happy with this victory," said Bennati afterwards. "My teammates worked really well. In the final kilometres, at the front of the peloton, there were the trains of Lotto-Domo and Fassa Bortolo. Alberto Ongarato launched me into the sprint, I took the wheel of Zanotti [Fassa Bortolo] and went from 250m out. I was afraid of the wind, but at that moment I thought I could win."

I owe it all to...

Bettini's grip on the yellow leader's jersey looks to be secure, but tomorrow's 42 km team time trial could still change things, with less than a minute separating the top four riders. Bettini's closest rival is Ag2r's Laurent Brochard, who is at 10 seconds. Then there is Sylvain Chavanel (Brioches La Boulangere) at 22 seconds, and Thor Hushovd (Credit Agricole) at 33. Also Rabobank, with Bram de Groot in 7th at 1'23 has an outside chance of taking back the jersey.

"The team time trial tomorrow will decide the final classification," said Bettini. "We will start with a lot of concentration, immediately trying to find a good rhythm with my teammates. In my opinion the most important moment of this team time trial will be the final part with the climb of La Gineste and the following descent."
