The only flat-rated stage of the race. Does it mean that the favourites won't perform? We will see that and we will also see if the sprinters can take this stage. Castañeda, Bongiorno and Galdos are here but they may suffer with the ups and downs of the stage. Note that the final kilometers of the stage contain a slight ascent.
Corwin, Petrie-Armstrong, Barclay, Rincón and Locatelli attack in the first kilometers of the stage.
Locatelli takes the intermediate sprint in front of Rincón and Barclay.
Petrie-Arsmtrong and Corwin are a 1 minute and 15 seconds of behind.
Rincón is the first on the first KOM sprint. Barclay is second and Locatelli is third. The two chasers are at 40 seconds. The pack is at 7 minutes.
With 125km to go, the two front groups join together and Jack Wolfskin starts to cut the break's advantage. The gap is at 10 minutes.
Rincón is, once again, the first in the KOM sprint and equals Scarponi, who is wearing the Polka Dot jersey, with 12 points. This time, Petrie-Armstrong and Corwin round the podium. The peloton is at 8'48''.
With 90km to go, 100% Me, Molteni and Wii Racing help Jack Wolfskin and the peloton's pace starts to be even bigger.
Petrie-Armstrong, Corwin and Locatelli, respectively, are the first three to pass in the last classified hill. Still nearly 80km to go and the gap is at 5 minutes.
The breakaway riders can still pass the intermediate sprint in front of the peloton. Barclay gets the first place, followed by Locatelli and Rincón. The advantage is about a minute and a half and there are still 37 km to go.
Some of the breakaway riders attacked to avoid getting caught by the pack but Locatelli, Petrie-Armstrong and Rincón, the remaining part of the break, were caught at 20km to go.
With 5km to go, the situation is completely undefined! About the notable names, Ignatiev, with the Russian Champion jersey is following Tennant while he's followed by Sieberg. Mora is leading his teammate Schumacher, Szczawinski and Kirchen. The two Molteni riders are Galdos and Bongiorno.
2km after, the train leaded by Mora counts now with the presence of Marzoli and Priamo. Ignatiev, unhappy with the lead-out of Tennant, is now following Bongiorno who finally sat in Galdos' wheel.
With 2 km to go, the riders start to climb the hill and Schumacher opens the sprint. Szczawinski and Kirchen are right behind him.
Under the final kilometer banner, Schumacher still leads!
Szczawinski tries to pass Schumacher, they are almost side by side at 500 meters to go! Kirchen can't surely take more than a third place today.
Despite leading for 2000 meters, Schumacher takes the win and the yellow jersey! Szczawinski is second and Kirchen is third. Behind, Gilbert comes from nowhere and takes the fourth place in front of Sieberg.
