2009 winner: Bernhard Kohl (Austria)
2009 winner: Lazlo Bodrogi (Hungary)
The majority of riders here is from Austria which means that the most interesting battle should be the one for the Austrian title. Bodrogi is the main favorite to take the Hungarian title, while the 100% Me duo, made by Rinner and Jiriakov, will fight for the Lichtenstein title
There weren't many attempts of breakaways before the last 150 kilometers of the race, when Jiriakov and Trampusch got away
The strongest riders like Eisel, Kohl, Pfannberger and Rohregger were in the chasing group but they didn't work together too well and the leading duo managed to get easily a max advantage of 7 minutes. The 3 Hungarian riders riding today were in the third group
At the top of the last climb of the penultimate lap, Jiriakov was left behind by Trampusch, but with the chasers more than 5 minutes behind they both seem to have secured their national titles
Gerhard Trampusch is the new Austrian Champion, after riding in a solo lead during the last lap of the race!
Jiriakov had no problems keeping the second place and he took the Lichtenstein title. Behind him Eisel finished third after leaving the chasing group in the last lap, but there's no reward for him today
In the third group of the race, the Austrian National team controlled the sprint. Bodrogi had a nice chance to retain his title, but he was beaten in the last meters by Garamszegi, who becomes the new Hungarian Champion!
2009 winner: Thomas Rohregger (Austria)
2009 winner: Lazlo Bodrogi (Hungary
Jiriakov took the Lichtenstein title in the RR, but it's another 100% Me rider, who gets it in the TT: Daniel Rinner
Bodrogi missed the Hungarian RR title but at least he retains one of the titles one last year, by winning today's ride with the time of 1 hour 9 minutes and 51 seconds
On paper, the defending champion, Rohregger, was the big favorite to take the Austrian title, but he was only the third fastest rider from his country today, one of those who beat him being the new RR champion, Gerhard Trampusch
It was Kohl who took the Austrian title, being 4 seconds faster than Trampusch and 20 faster than Rohregger, but 16 slower than Bodrogi
