Tour of Romandie Stage 3
1 Alexandre Vinokourov (Kaz) Pro Team Astana 3:47:55
2 Mikael Cherel (Fra) AG2R La Mondiale
3 Tony Martin (Ger) HTC-Highroad
4 Ben Swift (GBr) Sky Procycling
5 Oscar Freire Gomez (Spa) Rabobank Cycling Team
The tree escaped on the last 1km and Sky and Rabo hod no one left to chase them. Though Swift is proving superb this season, the last stage will be his to take.

Too bad Sky or others couldnt close down that Vino group - else Swift might have had added another PT stage win to his victory list for this year

Well, that's hardly his old strength, but the Vuelta a Asturias is a joke, and has been for years. The stage 2a was hilariously sad.

What I found interesting is these comments I found from Sean Yates about Wiggins and Swift 4th place finish.
https://velonews.c...ead_170413
But where were Swift’s Sky teammates when he needed them most? The 23-year-old British rider, who’s developing into a new-generation Freire who can get over hills and contest a sprint, has already taken three wins this season and looked headed for another one. His team’s coming up short didn’t please Sky sports director Sean Yates.
“It was extremely disappointing,” Yates told VeloNews. “Ben obviously had the legs. He won that sprint ahead of the three-time world champ (Freire). But Ben was alone. We had the firepower there, in Bradley (Wiggins), to close that gap down. But there was no commitment from Bradley to help Swifty.
“Rabo had no one else; they’d been chasing all day. And, yes, BMC had someone there for GC, but they didn’t have a sprinter, and the real commitment is obviously for the stage win.
“Rabobank was committed but they’d been on the front for 150K. We’d been on the front with Morris (Possoni) for 20K; he did his bit. I wasn’t expecting (climbers) Chris Froome or Dario (Cioni) to close down gaps or put Swifty in the right place. G (Geraint Thomas), who would normally do that job, was dropped with Michael Barry, so the only guy left was Brad.
“I’m disappointed in the situation (with Wiggins) but it’s nothing new, and without being too derogatory, it’s just frustrating basically. It’s not every day that an opportunity like that comes along. And except for Oscar Freire there was no other sprinter there.”

And 18 year old Dale Parker wins the time trial. That is two years in a row that Trek-Livestrong have won the TT (Dowsett, 2010). |

He has the speed, but seems like he may have to work on his hill-climbing a little - he went into the stage last in GC, so lots of time loss on the stages he hasnt won.

I don´t think he went too early, Guardini was simply in another league...
