Garcia Quesada leaves favourites far behind

By Chris Henry

The Vuelta a Burgos wasn't won during today's first stage, but for many it may well have been lost. Carlos Garcia Quesada (Kelme-Costa Blanca) emerged victorious in the 175km road stage ahead of 10 breakaway companions who together put 24 minutes into the peloton on the first day of racing. Most major teams were represented, if not by their designated leaders, with the notable absence of US Postal Service and Team Bianchi. With four stages to go, it remains to be seen just how much the pre-race favourites are willing to fight to regain this deficit, or which of the 11 riders in the break will take his early opportunism all the way to the bank.

Anyone could have guessed that a break would go clear in the opening day of racing, but without any major difficulties, a bunch sprint was a reasonably predictable conclusion as well. Not today, however, as the group of 11 had 23 minutes in hand with just 25km left to race. Even with Bianchi and US Postal out of the hunt for the stage win, there was no concerted chase from behind to close down such an important time gap.

With a fast average speed of 44 km/h for the day, the break rolled like a well-oiled machine and showed no sign of slowing down by the time it reached the outskirts of Miranda de Ebro. Cofidis' Daniel Atienza was the first to break the truce, and attacked alone inside the final 5 km. At first disorganised, the rest of the break eventually regrouped and with iBanesto.com's Pablo Lastras at the helm, clawed its way back to Atienza, who was beginning to fade under the hot sun.

The textbook counter attack was made by Garcia Quesada, who at first had two riders on his wheel but powered clear to make his bid for the stage win and the first leader's jersey. Into a roundabout just before the 1km to go banner, the Kelme rider kept his speed up and accelerated out of the turn with enough force to maintain his momentum all the way to the line. Italian Daniele Nardello (Telekom) took the sprint for second just four seconds back, followed by ONCE's Mikel Pradera.

Saulius Ruskys (Marlux-Wincor Nixdorf) eventually took the sprint, 24 minutes leader, at the head of the hapless peloton, which did nothing to limit its losses, and even conceded an additional minute to the break by the time it reached the line. Garcia Quesada's podium appearances for the overall leader's jersey and the points jersey were long finished by the time the remaining 127 riders came home.

Tomorrow's stage 2 will put the Garcia Quesada to the test immediately with a finish atop the Cat. 1 Altotero. Of those in the successful break, Phonak's Oscar Pereiro could be the strongest contender for final victory if he climbs as well as he did to take third overall in this year's Tour of Switzerland.
