+1 That was really close with those 2 seconds, Juraj had to be very sad.
But nice victory with Kreuziger, he looks much better in Liquigas colours again then in the Astana's blue one

Thanks for the kind words. The season starts indeed promising, hopefully everyone, including Kreuziger, will continue like that to get some results in the more important races as well.
Coming up next is the Giro di Sardegna with Dominik racing.

February 22, 2012 – Giro di Sardegna
Preview
The Giro di Sardegna is one of the numerous short stage races in Italy. Irregularly staged between 1958 and 1997, the race came back in 2009 with five stages on the island of Sicily. The most recent winners are Daniele Bennati, Roman Kreuziger and Vincenzo Nibali, record winner is Eddy Merckx with four overalls.
The course in Italy is pretty demanding, not a single real flat stage. Four of five are classified as hilly, one as mountaneous. Three finishes are ascending, so there are enough opportunities to create time gaps.
1 | Vincenzo Nibali | Liquigas - Cannondale | 2 | Massimo Codol | Acqua & Sapone | 3 | Jonathan Hivert | Saur - Sojasun | 4 | Peter Sagan | Liquigas - Cannondale | 5 | Staf Scheirlickx | Verandas Willems - Accent |

In contrary to last year, when Nibali dominated the race completely, the start list of this edition of the Giro di Sardegna is very strong. Especially Katusha and Liquigas provide strong squads with more than one winning candidate.
With Damiano Cunego and Roman Kreuziger, we can only have one mission: To defend Nibali's title from last year. Lampre and even more Katusha will be strong opponents but we're confident to take the win on the demanding course.
As in Portugal, I will mostly have a free role and try to represent us in the breakaways. I defenitely have to improve my hilly skills and here's another good opportunity for that.

Good luck in Sardegna. Very strong liquigas team with both Cunego and Kreuziger. I think Dominik can go for a good break on stage 1 or 4!

Giro di Sardegna, Stage 1
The introducing stage is one of the easier ones of the race, still the loads of ups and downs will cause some trouble for quite some riders. At least, 142 kms are not too long.
Dominik's Pre-Race Comment
Today with all the short ascents and descents doesn't suit me at all. I will just sit in the pack and support Damiano and Roman, maybe set them up for they might try the first attacks on the last hill.
Km 3: | Colnago's Sascha Modolo is the first attacker of the day. | . | Km 6: | Along with some other riders, Alessandro Vanotti tries to get lose. | . | Km 15: | Vanotti is one half of the leading duo, accompanied by Tomas Lisowicz (Bank BGZ). But the Pole doesn't do much work and their lead doesn't go over a minute. | . | Km 22: | The Liquigas rider got rid of Lisowicz and extended his lead to 2 minutes on the first intermediate sprint. | . | | | Km 48: | Vanotti takes the first mountain sprint as well but his lead decreased to a bit more than a minute. | . | | | Km 56: | All the up and down streches the pack. On every occasion, it splits. Vanotti is still in front. | . | Km 75: | Vanotti is back in the peloton. The leading group consists of only 59 riders. | . | Km 88: | After the Italian was caught, the pack slowed down and most riders could catch up again. | . | | | Km 98: | Led out by Tiziano Dall'Antonia, Damiano Cunego takes six points and six bonus seconds on the third intermediate sprint. | . | Km 102: | Uros Murn (Adria Mobil) and Luca Ascani (D'Angelo) attack and break free. | . | Km 121: | Vladimir Efimkin (Itera) attacks and catches up with the leading duo but they're only half a minute in front. The other teams won't let him go. 20 kms to the finish. | . | | | Km 122: | Dominik Nerz and Alessandro Vanotti increase the pace. Lots of riders can't keep up anymore. | . | Km 125: | Their work did the trick: Everything is back together. 47 riders enter the last 17 kms. | . | | | Km 133: | Vlad Efimkin goes again, this time followed by the big favorites Pellizotti, Scarponi and Cunego. | . | | | Km 138: | Cunego and Pellizotti cross the top of the last ascent together. One of them will win. | . | | | Km 141: | Cunego and Pellizotti watched each other carefully and Efimkin could catch up. But in the sprint, he's chanceless. Cunego takes the sprint from the front, can Pellizotti overtake him? | . | | | Km 142: | Unfortunatly yes. But so close! Pellizotti takes the win by some centimeters. | . | | | Km 142: | Kreuziger attack a bit after Cunego and outsprints Scarponi for place four. | . | | | Km 142: | Dominik Nerz did surprisingly well. After he worked a lot for his leaders, he still manages to get a Top 15. |

Very nice start for us here on Sicily. Although Pellizotti edged out Cunego for the win, Damiano is only two seconds away. Roman achieved a great result as well so we still have both options for the GC.
The stage went well for me, too. I had a nice chat with Cunego while I protected him and guided him through the course. On the last kilometers, I pulled the escapees back together with Alessandro Vanotti and eventhough the stage didn't suit me that well, I could get a nice placement. Very encouraging!
Tomorrow will be a lot tougher so I'm going to bed now.
See you,

Nice stage for Cunego, Kreuziger and even Dominik was pretty strong after all that pacemaking, good job
Pity that Cunego lost it only by centimetres.

Giro di Sardegna, Stage 2
The second stage is already quite hard. The last climb to the Monte Ortobene is rather long and partly steep, the way to the ascent is hard, too. We can expect a nice battle of the favorites towards the end.
Dominik's Pre-Race Comment
As we need to gain time on the others, we don't want any breakaway to succeed today, so we won't participate in the attacks. The main goal will be to achieve the yellow jersey with either Damiano or Roman. I may have a shot at the young riders classification if I have a good day.
Km 1: | The attacks start from scratch. | . | Km 17: | Katusha and Liquigas aren't satisfied with the breaks and keep bringing them back. | . | | | Km 33: | Eventually, three riders broke free. They are: Borut Bozic (Vacansoleil), Mattia Cattaneo (Lampre) and Eduard Prades (TV3). | . | Km 42: | Several riders try to jump to the front... | . | Km 64: | Pole Maciej Sapa (Farnese) closed the gap and joined the trio. Five further riders are a minute behind them, the pack follows three more minutes behind. | . | | | Km 88: | As the advance of the leaders grows to more than eight minutes, Liquigas overtakes the lead in the pack. | . | Km 124: | Due to Liquigas' pacemaking, the advance of the escapees shrinked to 1'30 at the second mountain sprint. In addition, only 50 riders are left in the main peloton. | . | | | Km 138: | Mattia Cattaneo dropped his two remaining companions and leads solo. Liquigas slowed down a bit and the advance grows to 2 minutes again. | . | | | Km 155: | On the second to last ascent, Vanotti again makes the pace and completely destroys the pack. Only 15 riders are left in the first chasing group, among them five Liquigas riders and all bigger favorites. Cattaneo is still 1'30 in front. | . | Km 168: | The final climb is opened by an attack of Dario Cataldo (Quick·Step). He joins Cattaneo, but they don't stand a chance. | . | | | Km 171: | With Dominik Nerz and Damiano Cunego at the front, eleven riders enter the last 10 kms together. Pellizotti and Scarponi still look good while Roman Kreuziger and Joaquim Rodriguez linger at the end of the group. | . | Km 173: | After a long day of hard work, Vanotti starts to lose the contact to the front group. Dominik Nerz is still there but he looks more and more tired as he is now the leading man. | . | Km 175: | What an effort! Vanotti clings on to the others and keeps contact. | . | | | Km 177: | With 4 kms to go, Damiano Cunego counters an attack of Dario Cataldo! Franco Pellizotti puts himself to the front of the group, trying to close the gap. | . | | | Km 178: | Initiated by Vladimir Efimkin, Scarponi, Kreuziger and Pellizotti make their moves. They soon catch up with Cataldo, but Cunego is already way up the road. | . | | | Km 181: | What a move! Damiano Cunego is unstoppable and takes the stage win and the overall lead! | . | | | Km 181: | 42 seconds later, Pellizotti crosses the line, followed by Efimkin and Kreuziger. | . | | | Km 181: | Dominik Nerz does great and even outsprints Joaquim Rodriguez for place eight. Unfortunatly, he loses a bit on Diego Ulissi, so the white jersey seems out of reach, but the German youngster enters the Top 10 overall. | . | Km 181: | Alessandro Vanotti is the fourth Liquigas rider in the Top 10. Amazing after all the work he did. |

Wow! What a great stage for us! With a fantastic team work, we managed to gain the overall lead and four spots in the Top 10 – one of them for me. I have to give Alessandro Vanotti lots of credits for his performance today, he was a monster. Without him, it might have been more difficult, as he isolated the other riders almost alone.
Regarding my performance, I'm very pleased. Although I did a lot of work on the last 10 kms for Damiano, I was able to finish better than someone like Joaquim Rodriguez. It was an amazing feeling to fly past him on the last meters! The only small downer is that Diego Ulissi seems too strong to take the young riders jersey away from him. But you never know, do you?
Also, with my overall position, I won't be able to join a breakaway in future stages. That's now Damiano Caruso's or Tiziano Dall'Antonia's job.
See you,

Thanks for all the nice comments. January and February are always good for some nice results, the real challenges start in March.
@ dev4ever: A typical PCM-ish transfer... He could easily ride for the big Katusha team (even his former Team Type 1 would be better) but hey, who wouldn't rather ride for Itera?

Giro di Sardegna, Stage 3
According to the race organisation, this shall be the hardest stage. It's the only one classified as mountaneous although the last ascent looks easier than yesterday. But on the other hand, the riders have another tough climb halfway through the stage.
Dominik's Pre-Race Comment
As we're in the comfortable position of having the overall lead now, we may try to send a rider to the break today. Apart from that, it will be all about keeping our good places in the GC, maybe even improve a bit.
Km 9: | The first attacks were neutralized by Liquigas, now it's Damiano Caruso who attacks. | . | | | Km 18: | The Italian got away and leads solo with two minutes. | . | Km 33: | Uncontested, Damiano Cunego takes the second spot on the intermediate sprint. Six more seconds for him. | . | Km 58: | Caruso's lead grows to seven minutes. | . | | | Km 94: | As he crosses the top of the climb, Caruso maintains a lead of 7'30. With 65 kms to go, this might actually work. | . | Km 129: | The leader reaches the last flat part. 29 kilometers to the finish line and he is still more than seven minutes away. If he doesn't collapse completely, victory is his. | . | Km 145: | Quite early (14 kms to go), Franco Pellizotti launches an attack. Cunego immediatly responds. | . | Km 147: | The move was half hearted. They didn't get away. | . | | | Km 154: | Within the last 5 kms, Pellizotti again goes for it. Scarponi and Cunego try to catch up. | . | | | Km 156: | 3 kilometers left. Efimkin flew past Pellizotti and Cunego, Kreuziger follows, Scarponi is a bit further behind. Caruso is still 1'30 in front of Efimkin, but his lead shrinked rapidly. | . | | | Km 157: | Pellizotti goes again and Cunego can't counter. | . | | | Km 159: | After a fantastic solo ride of 150 kms, Damiano Caruso celebrates a well-deserved win. | . | Km 159: | Efimkin and Pellizotti make up some time on Cunego, who stays in the overall lead. | . | | | Km 159: | Dominik Nerz had a bad day, missed the right move and finishes 21st. |

This race just keeps getting better. Another stage win for us, Damiano Caruso finally gets a reward for all the domestique work he does. Terrific ride today.
For Damiano, this wasn't the best stage but we were actually more worried about Michele Scarponi today which is why we're happy about today's outcome. The last two stages suit Damiano better again.
Me personally, I had a rather bad day. I didn't feel good all the time while I was protecting Cunego and after he attacked, I shortly lost focus and suddenly found myself at the end of the group. I could make up some time afterwards but more than my 21st wasn't possible. Anyway, I was able to keep my Top 10 which is fine.
Another escapee-friendly stage is waiting for us tomorrow,
See you,
