A 11-man break-away was formed . The strongest riders were Lars Bak , Thibaut Pinot , Chris Anker Sorensen , Brice Feillu , Marco Marcato and Christain Knees , the winner from Vuelta Andalucia.
The break-way had a 2- minutes lead over the peloton. Andy Schleck and Egoi Martinez attacked on the last climb and Jesus Herrada decided to join them . Unfortunately Rabobank answered and they started to chase hard .
This is the situation with 10 kms to go . Mattias Frank decided to attack from the BOTD , while the peloton was 1 minute behind . Everything was possible .
Frank was caught and the other riders from the break-away will fight for the stage win .
Michael Krader wins . The first WT win for Garmin - Sharp.
