We must have a win here!

i577.photobucket.com/albums/ss217/Unitedforeverandever/PCM2009-05-2711-42-42-96-1.jpg

An easy pace, and a breakaway gets lose.

With 15km. left the breakaway have been caught.

Konovalovas leading out Lancaster and Hushovd..

i577.photobucket.com/albums/ss217/Unitedforeverandever/PCM2009-05-2711-43-52-77-1.jpg

And it worked!!! Hushovd takes his first win of the season Grin and the sprinter jersey B)

Now he just needs to win one sprint bonus and the last two stages to take the overall, difficult but not impossible...

Stage 5

Today we will ride for one of the sprint bonuses and the victory of course..

And with high speed riding in the peleton from us, Hushovd can take the first sprint. Really important.

After that we let a breakaway loose.

They were caught with 15km. to go.


In the sprint Hushovd positioned himself behind Feillu, and took the stage win Banana

Result:

T. Hushovd
M. Hayman
R. Feillu

Hushovd now only needs the last stage win, he is 0'16 sec behind in the GC. But he is in great shape.

Sorry no pictures, my fraps wasn't on when I thought I took the pictures :S and I pressed next before I could export the results Sad

The team, pulled in the breakaway with 31km left.

i577.photobucket.com/albums/ss217/Unitedforeverandever/PCM2009-05-2713-13-48-18-1.jpg

Hushovd tries to get a postion.
He gets the wheel of Feillu, this can't go wrong...

i577.photobucket.com/albums/ss217/Unitedforeverandever/PCM2009-05-2713-14-09-48-1.jpg

Mikailov is long behind, Hushovd just got to take the win..

He gets past feillu, but Gavazzi comes from the right. And Rasmussen from left.

i577.photobucket.com/albums/ss217/Unitedforeverandever/PCM2009-05-2713-14-37-79-1.jpg

Antoher flat stage for the sprinters

i577.photobucket.com/albums/ss217/Unitedforeverandever/Langkawi/PCM2009-05-2718-37-27-01.jpg

Todays breakaway, We sended Puyol in it.

i577.photobucket.com/albums/ss217/Unitedforeverandever/Langkawi/PCM2009-05-2718-37-48-59.jpg

And Puyol takes the mountain sprint.

Cuesta crashed!!! he has minor wounds, and I thought about taking him out but let carry on in the race because I have no else to support Marchante in the mountains


The breakaway has been caught, and yet another mass sprint.

Haussler in not the greatest position.

i577.photobucket.com/albums/ss217/Unitedforeverandever/Langkawi/PCM2009-05-2718-38-55-26.jpg

We are trying to take control early on.

i577.photobucket.com/albums/ss217/Unitedforeverandever/Langkawi/PCM2009-05-2719-03-44-44.jpg

A breakaway with no one serious in it.

The break has been caught and for some reason teams with no interest in the stage ride like madness, making the pace unbereable

Haussler and Marchante struggles

i577.photobucket.com/albums/ss217/Unitedforeverandever/Langkawi/PCM2009-05-2719-04-45-36.jpg

But Haussler get back on tune, but can't help it, well earned victory for De maria, and a 4th to Haussler.

This is his first race, and he still needs some training before he is fit,
And then it is the first time i'm playing on hard so I had to learn it, and the sprint has really gotten harder for me Wink

But of course also more fun not to win everytime Pfft

i577.photobucket.com/albums/ss217/Unitedforeverandever/Langkawi/PCM2009-05-2719-25-00-97.jpg

i577.photobucket.com/albums/ss217/Unitedforeverandever/Langkawi/PCM2009-05-2810-10-43-60.jpg

Early breakaway, Haussler joins to get some points.

i577.photobucket.com/albums/ss217/Unitedforeverandever/Langkawi/PCM2009-05-2810-11-03-10.jpg

Haussler wins the first bonus.

i577.photobucket.com/albums/ss217/Unitedforeverandever/Langkawi/PCM2009-05-2810-11-24-67.jpg

He became 2th on the second bonus

i577.photobucket.com/albums/ss217/Unitedforeverandever/Langkawi/PCM2009-05-2810-11-44-34.jpg

And a 3th on the third bonus (screwed up with my tactics..)

i577.photobucket.com/albums/ss217/Unitedforeverandever/Langkawi/PCM2009-05-2810-11-59-69.jpg

I then let him drop back in the peleton. He earned enough to be even with de Maria. and because he came in before Maria he took the jersey Grin

i577.photobucket.com/albums/ss217/Unitedforeverandever/Langkawi/PCM2009-05-2810-12-55-62.jpg

We have entered the foot of the mountain, and Siotsou attacks! Pozzovizo counters with Marchante.

i577.photobucket.com/albums/ss217/Unitedforeverandever/Langkawi/PCM2009-05-2810-13-23-60.jpg

The three of them are working great together.

i577.photobucket.com/albums/ss217/Unitedforeverandever/Langkawi/PCM2009-05-2810-13-56-24.jpg

Now Cuesta joins to help his teammate.

Then Moreno joins with Levetre, But Levetre has to let go again.

i577.photobucket.com/albums/ss217/Unitedforeverandever/Langkawi/PCM2009-05-2810-16-00-78.jpg

With 1km left Marchante is up front with Pozzovizo, but Marchante is really tired, he had been in front in 4km with Pozzovizo on his wheel.

i577.photobucket.com/albums/ss217/Unitedforeverandever/Langkawi/PCM2009-05-2810-16-22-69.jpg

Marchante giving it a last push, and he gets a gab!! apperantly Pozzovizo is also tired and can't keep up.

Marchante takes his forth win of the season, and becomes the leader in GC Banana

i577.photobucket.com/albums/ss217/Unitedforeverandever/Langkawi/PCM2009-05-2810-16-41-31.jpg

i577.photobucket.com/albums/ss217/Unitedforeverandever/Langkawi/Provinica/PCM2009-05-2810-46-37-82.jpg

But some attacks in the break and get a gab.

i577.photobucket.com/albums/ss217/Unitedforeverandever/Langkawi/Provinica/PCM2009-05-2810-47-06-13.jpg

More attacks and this time Pauwels see his chance.

i577.photobucket.com/albums/ss217/Unitedforeverandever/Langkawi/Provinica/PCM2009-05-2810-47-30-47.jpg

They are 3 riders at the front, Pauwels is one of them!

i577.photobucket.com/albums/ss217/Unitedforeverandever/Langkawi/Provinica/PCM2009-05-2810-47-54-07.jpg

And the sprint begins, Pauwels gets past the first.

i577.photobucket.com/albums/ss217/Unitedforeverandever/Langkawi/Provinica/PCM2009-05-2810-48-01-97.jpg

But he has a hard time beating the next, it will end in a duel.

i577.photobucket.com/albums/ss217/Unitedforeverandever/Langkawi/Provinica/PCM2009-05-2810-48-10-38.jpg

Quite boring stage despite yesterdays profile.

i577.photobucket.com/albums/ss217/Unitedforeverandever/Langkawi/PCM2009-05-2811-10-54-69.jpg

And as expected; todays breakaway

They got caught, and it will end in a mass sprint.

i577.photobucket.com/albums/ss217/Unitedforeverandever/Langkawi/PCM2009-05-2811-11-38-75.jpg

Haussler struggles a bit and can only take the 4th, luckily De maria finished as 6th and therefore Haussler keeps his jersey.

A small breakaway is the only action today.
