A small ITT opens the race. Note the fact that the last kilometers have some high slopes. The main favourite has to be Ignatiev, but other riders as Kirchen and Schumacher may benefit from the existance of those slopes.
Bertagnolli, Wiggle's leader, is the second up in the road and gets the lead by beating Rincón, the first starter, from Team Ultimate by 1 second.
But Vandenbroeck, who comes right after Bertagnolli, beats the Italian rider's time by 8 seconds. 6'48'' is the reference time.
Bagdonas tries to challenge Molteni's rider time, but he loses 6 seconds.
So does Garbelli but the Vespa rider makes 8 seconds worse. Provisional podium is fulfilled by Vandenbroeck, Badgonas and Garbelli.
Vandewalle made five seconds more than the provisional leader. 2nd place, so far, for him.
Ignatiev, the biggest favourite for today's stage, makes the same time as Vandenbroeck. Ignatiev makes just a little better, taking a provisional 1st place. Is it enough for the win?
De Kort makes 4th at 5 seconds, equalling his teammate, Vandewalle.
Kirchen, a Luxembourguese, perhaps motivated by being racing at his country managed to beat Ignatiev's time by 4 seconds! This result was also probably influenced by wind changes which may have make it worse for Ignatiev.
And, the biggest favourite for the overall win, Stefan Schumacher beats Kirchen's time by 7 seconds! Is the stage win given?
Reus tries to prove it wrong but he fails by 5 seconds. 2nd place for the Dutch.
Gilbert tries it too, but the limitations in time trial of the highest paid rider in Continental Division make him take 6th at 11 seconds.
Schumacher wins the first stage! He ends the day with the yellow jersey and he will surely try to keep until the end of this stage race.
