8.1 km

i963.photobucket.com/albums/ae120/harry1978/Qatar1.jpg

Where Henderson was our sprinter in the Tour Down Under and Giro della Calabria it is Swift who will ride the Tour of Qatar. Since the TTT is a decisive factor for winning the Tour of Qatar all ITT specialist (Wiggins, Cummings, Froome, Thomas, Stannard) appear at the start to which a couple of riders are added that are supposed to help Swift in the sprints (Sutton and Downing). The same squad will also ride the Tour of Oman, where Wiggins with is a favourite for the last ITT stage and thereby the also for the general standings.

Saxo was the ultimate favourite to win this TTT stage with riders as Larsson and especially Cancellara in the squad. They did not dissapoint and set the first time early in the race.

Team Saxo Bank set the fastest time early in the race

Also Omega Pharma did not dissapoint. They finish second together with Team HTC - Columbia 13" behind Saxo. For Team HTC - Columbia this was a bit of a dissapointment as they were hoping to win here. But with Greipel in the squad they still have all the chances to win here.

i963.photobucket.com/albums/ae120/harry1978/Qatar1_HTC.jpg

Team HTC - Columbia finished 2nd at 13" from Saxo

Garmin was another favourite for the win, but also they dissapointed and finished 17" seconds behind Team Saxo bank. With Farrar in the squad, also they have still an excellent chance to win.

i963.photobucket.com/albums/ae120/harry1978/Qatar1_garmin.jpg

Garmin Transitions finished at 17" from the leaders

The Sky Professional Cycling team finished in the middel of the pack at a + 36" of Team Saxo bank. Not a bad result for a new team who never practised TTTs before (especially since the Qatar TTT is never been very successfull for me). With Swift they still have a good change to win stages, but to win the Tour of Qatar they will need to do this via a breakaway.

Could you post Marco Corti stats please..
Nice sprint win with Henderson..


Thanks! Henderson is peaking early in the season, which is paying off. Let's see what is going to happen now with (a not so much in shape) Swift in the Tour of Qatar. Here are all stats from Footon incl. Corti.

Tour of Qatar
Al Zubarah – Doha Golf Club
139 km

i963.photobucket.com/albums/ae120/harry1978/Qatar2.jpg

This stage and the forecoming stages are destined to end up in a sprint, thus the Sky Professional Cycling Team will mainly focus on setting up the sprint for Swift. We are also trying to get one of our riders in the breakaway as thisis, unless strange things happen, the only way to win the Tour of Qatar.


i963.photobucket.com/albums/ae120/harry1978/Qatar2_2.jpg

The attackers get a maximum lead of 4’00”.

Several riders are trying to get away directly from the start but were not allowed to innitially. Eventually it were Curvers, Stroetinga, D’Angelo, Kholodov, Turpin, Karnulin and Mykhaylov who managed to get away. They get a maximum lead of 4’00” after that it is slowly decreased and stabilized around 3’00”by the teams that have sprinters in their squad. The intermediate sprints are for Stroetinga and Curvers. After that the pack really started to increase the pace and the attackers were brought in quickly. Greipel was a whole lot better in the sprint than all others and finished first. He also takes the lead in the general standings.

Greipel is the fastest in the sprint

No the sprint was not so good. Swift was in an OK position but was then passed with great speed by other sprinters. He couldn't even pass Sutton. I have to admit that Swift is not in great shape and I think I may replace him with Henderson in the Tour of Oman. I probably would have done this from the start had I known that there would be sprinters like Farrar, Breschel and Greipel present. That never happened in PCM9.

Another flat race and again the Sky Professional Cycling Team wil try to set up the sprint for Swift under perfect conditions. Also today we will try to have one of our riders in the breakaway.
It is going to be a difficult race with a very strong wind at the start. It is going to be important to stay in the front of the pack in order not to lose any time. This will also be an opportunity for a breakaway to stay in front. Team Columbia realizes this and lets nobody leave the pack for a while. Eventually a group with Kemps, Downing, Chaigneau, Kump, Schulze, Knaven, Novikov, De Vocht, Bonuccelli, Balloni and Buts managed to get a small lead on the pack that quickly increases to 5'00". The first intermediate sprint is won byChaigneau, while the second one is for Kump.

The attackers take a lead of 5'00" on the pack

The wind has increased further and the pack that is increasing its speed is becoming very long. Several riders in the back are in problems and lose contact with the pack. Among them are almost the whole Footon Serverto and Euskaltel Euskadi teams. The pack decreases the gap with the leaders really fast now and several riders in the leading group see their changes to a victory vanish. For others this is a reason to do another attack. Twenty kilometers before the finish Schulze, Kemps, Chaigneau, Knaven, Balloni, and Downing are leaving the others behind. It doesn't matter. One by one all attackers are caught by the pack, which has lost almost two-thirds of its riders. The sprint was a total mess. Due to the heavy wind the pack broke up to a lot of small groups and eventually it was Schulze who was in front as he was one of the last riders caught and managed to beat Goss at the finish.

Schulze supprises everybody and takes the win

Clearly this was not a sprinters sprint, but a sprint instead for those who coped with the strong wind the best. Strangely the organizers gave all the small groups the same time resulting in very small changes in the general standings.

Thats why I hate this races in Qatar... With that wind, the sprinter are always to tired for the final sprint.

TOUR OF QATAR
Khalifa Stadium - Al Khor Corniche
139 km

i963.photobucket.com/albums/ae120/harry1978/qatar4.jpg

Another totally flat stage that most likely is going to finish in a sprint. Swift is again our man for the job and again we will try to send somebody away in the breakaway.
Music, Oroz, Froome and Danacik managed to get away from the pack and take lead of about one minute. Stroetinga, Curvers and Faiers managed to make the jump from the pack to the leading group. Several other riders tried to make the jump as well, but as the pack didn't allow it, the gap between the pack and the leading group decreased rapidly. Lengyel, Rybin, Kholodov, Efimkin, Zagar and Day join the attackers a little later. The gap has then decreased to 48". Stankovic also joins while the lead increases slowly to 1'28".

i963.photobucket.com/albums/ae120/harry1978/qatar4_2.jpg

The breakaway did never really get a big lead on the pack

At the intermediate sprint, won by Efimkin, the lead of the attackers has increased further to 3'00". Kholodorov takes the second intermediate sprint as the lead of the attackers has decreased significantly. A sprint seems unavoidable. Roughly 20 kilometers before the finish all attackers have been caught. The pace is high and nobody is strong enough to get away. The sprint was won by Farrar. He was the strongest today.

Farrar wins the 4th stage of the Tour of Qatar

Carcassone - Souvain
98 km

i963.photobucket.com/albums/ae120/harry1978/Med1.jpg

A short flat stage with a very difficult finish. A perfect race for Boasson Hagen. He will be the guy for the job. All others will try to set up Boasson Hagen for the sprint perfectly. We will try to get one of our riders in the breakaway as usual. For the overall standings Pauwels will be our leader together with Gerrans.

Several riders are trying to get away directly from the start. It is a short race so there is not much time to create a sufficiently large gap to stay away. A group with Nilsson, Brouzes, Radotic, Buffaz, Le Bon, Portal, Asselman, Sinkeldam, Delpech, Baptista adn Partridge manage to get away.

Several riders have managed to get away

The attackers quickly take a 4'00" lead and with only 60 kilometers to go and little sprinters in the pack, the attackers may just stay away. But the pack did manage to close teh gap and when it is about to catch them at 20 kilometers before the finish Brouzes, Partidge, Radotic, Sinkeldam, Buffaz and Portal are trying to get away, but failed. It is going to be a sprint, unless somebody manages to get away on the Sauvian at a couple of kilometers before the finish.

The pack struggling on the Sauvian

The Sauvian is too short to really create a gap, alghough it made break the pack in several pieces. In the sprint it was Keukeleire who was the fastest just before Boasson Hagen.

Keukeleire is very fast on the last meters and wins the first stage

Tour of Qatar
Al Khor Academy - Al Khor Corniche
135.2 km

Another flat race. In the last sprint Shift did reasonably well and also this race the Sky Professional Cycling Team will try to set up the sprint for him. Ignatiev, Froom and Dionne try to jump away and get a couple of seconds that they defend for about twenty kilometers. Due to many attempts from several other riders to get away from the pack, the gap between the attackers and the pack remained very small and eventually they are caught. Then Curvers, Knaven, D'Angelo and Jarc give it a shot. They get a little more space and are followed by a large group with Oroz, Ignatiev, Balloni, Pakthusov, Dionne, Kozubek and Froome. Also Madaras tries to make the jump to the leading group. All attackers eventually reunite and take a maximum lead of 4'30" on the pack.

The leading group again did not make it to the finish

When getting closer to the finish, the pack is increasing its pace again and the gap between the attackers and the pack decreases rapidly. Nevertheless, the attackers pass the intermediate sprints (won by Curvers and Kozubek) and Gavazzi, Walker, Cretskens and Roberts try to get away from the pack and to join the leaders. They manage to join the leaders just before they all are caught by the pack. Kozubek, Oroz, Jarc, Curvers Madaras and Froome give it another try but also for them the escape finishes a couple of kilometers before the finish. The sprint was won by Napolitano before Mondory and Breschel.

TOUR MEDITERRANEEN - Stage 2
Peynier - Trets
158 km

i963.photobucket.com/albums/ae120/harry1978/Med2.jpg

A difficult and hilly stage. It is important to have riders in the breakaway as these are the races where an escape may be fruitfull. Moreover with a hill not too far from the finish Boasson Hagen may also have a change in the sprint of a thinned pack.
A group with Carlstrom, Gautier, Kostyuk, Bellemakers, Cusin, Coppel and Melehs managed to get away directly from the start. On the difficult terrain Kostyuk, Gautier and Carlstrom ride away from the others. Due to a fall Carlstrom droppes back a little later. Gautier and Kostyuk arrive first on the top of the Col des Portes. They hae a lead of 1'02"on Melehs, Bellemakers, Genovesi and Coppel. Carlstrom, Mazet, Labbe and Ricci Poggi follow at 2'04 and the pack at 3'02".

Gautier is the first rider on top of both mountains today and takes the KoM jersey

On the flat section between the Col des Portes and the Col de Valfere Gautier and Kostyuk are joined by Bellemakers Genovesi, Coppel and Melehs. The lead the pack by 3'00". Behind them Veikkanen escaped from the pack and joins the attackers a little later. But not before the Col des Portes is crossed first by Gautier, who will be wearing the KoM jersey tomorrow. The pack is rapidly approaching the attackers who see their chances of a victory slowly dissapear. Kostyuk does not give up yet and attacks. He is followed by Melehs, Genovesi, Bellemakers and Coppel. Gautier and Veikkanen manage to get back to teh attackers and Gautier immediately counters resulting that the whole leading group os torn apart.

As the pack approaches the leading group falls apart

From the pack Joly, Gentili, El Fares, Lefevre, Casar and Pauwels attack. They do not get away as the pack has significantly increased its pace. Consequently, a lot of riders are dropping back. Gauthier and Veikkanen still have a small lead on the pack in the last kilometers and Joly tries to make the jump from the pack. Their pace is really high so it is going to be very close. When Joly is caught Gentili immediately counters followed by Fedrigo makes his attempt. At that point also Gautier and Veikkanen are back in the reduced pack. Boasson Hagen takes the sprint and passes Gentili and Fedrigo in the last meters.

Tour of Qatar - Stage 6
Al Wakra - Doha Corniche
118.9 km

i963.photobucket.com/albums/ae120/harry1978/Qatar6.jpg

A very short and flat stage that most likely will be a prey for sprinters. Swift is not in great shape and has had great difficulties to pass his leadout man Sutton. Therefore today Sutton will have a shot''.
Several riders are trying to get away directly from the start but can't get away. The pace of the pack is maintained too high by the Katusha, Team HTC - Columbia and Skil - Shimano. They want this race to finish in a sprint. Eventually a group with Oroz, Stankovic, Kholodov, Music, Kemps and Lengyel manage to get away. Mykhaylov joins them a little later and manages to win the intermediate sprint.

Eventually a breakaway was set up

With so many teams pushing for a mass sprint the breakaway did not have a change and roughly thirty kilometers before the finish they were caught. The sprint was won by Goddaert just before Eisel and Swift.

Goddaert wins the sprint

TOUR MEDITERRANEEN - Stage 3
Greasque - Six Fours
107.5 km

i963.photobucket.com/albums/ae120/harry1978/Med3.jpg

A short and hilly stage which is difficult to predict. Several riders may try to get away but it also may end up in a sprint as the last thirty kilometers are relatively easy. The Sky Professional Cycling Team aims for a sprint, where Boasson Hagen can defend his leaders jersey and score sufficient points to gain a very safe position in the overall point standings.
Several riders are trying to get away direct from the start. A group with Brouzes, Giordani, Kouwenhoven, Delpech, Boeve, Cuppens, Bar, Perez and Boucher manages to take a small lead on the pack and to arrive at the top of the Col du Pas de la Couelle first.

Several riders take part in the daily breakaway

On the Cote de Mazaugues Veikkanen and later on a couple more riders attack.

Veikkanen places an attack

They manage to hook up with the attackers and it is Veikkanen who is the first one on top. The pack follows at 1'21" on the leading group that now consists of 21 riders. In the downhill section of the Cote de Mazaugues several riders have lost contact with the leading group and are caught by the pack. The remaining 14 riders maintain a 1'24" lead on the pack and slowly increase it to 2'30" at the top of the Cote de Chibron, also passed first by Veikkanen. Several teams are working to reduce the lead of the attackers but with only 20 kilometers to go the gap is still 2'22". It is going to be difficult to close the gap. The leaders are caught 4 kilometers before the finish. Cabreira does not let the pack get him this easy and he places a final attack but cannot hold it to the finish.

Eventually also Cabreira is caught

In the sprint Boasson Hagen beats Van Hummel. Keukeleire finishes third.
