Both were loaded 1.49 minutes in his locker. The transalpine cyclist disappeared from the top ten and the Basque is already 4.31 leader. Now, thinking about fishing some stage. The day kept its essence for the rise of 18 km to the ski resort that opened Santi white in 2002, although the mess was mounted in the last 10, shortly after that the German Sebastian Lang (Omega) claudicara as a last survivor of the escape of the day. Purito cared bonificare 2 seconds in the Sprint of Bejar, at foot of port.
Perhaps a signal of an ambition that had no continuity. The Lampre stretched his staff already uphill and its leader, Scarponi, was the first to launch a challenge. First selection, and early signs that some were not fine. The next try was Nibali, the dnsor of the title, 5.5 kilometers from the peak. The leader of the Liquigas could not leave, but did Daniel Martin, who had permission from the roosters to open hollow. Arose the family Alliance, because his cousin Nicolas Roche stuck to his wheel. Nibali broke the stage another attack of Nibali 4 served to reach Martin and Roche and definitively lift to Purito. And as is they joined those who were going to discuss the stage.
They asked say the missing Wiggins, Menchov and Van den Broeck, including Mollema and Cobo, got also among others. Golden opportunity for the sprinters who dream of the timed charra. Wiggins kicked back the pace of the group until the home straight. He almost suffocates Daniel Martin, who released his letter marked. He had no more than speed to put your name on the list of winners of the round. He had already written him a year ago with the triumph in the round to Poland, and in 2009 with a second placed in the Volta a Catalunya, surpassed only by Alejandro Valverde. The Jackpot for Martin, the honor of dressing in red fell on another young talent of the platoon, Bauke Mollem, 24 years old, a runner who broke into 2007 with posh in the Tour de l’Avenir and circuit Montanes triumphs. Missing the confirmation in the professional sphere. The rider of the Rabobank is not satisfied with anything. I am a little cranky. I was not looking for leadership, but win the stage, he said. The return is still pending a clock. At the moment the climbers have not tapped their opportunities. The contrarrelojistas have survived. And Nibali, meanwhile, to swim in all waters with the idea of arriving in Madrid with the red shirt.
