As with the stage 2, stage 3 is also quite short, but with this one finishing uphill, we may see a few gaps. Schumacher is, of course, the pre-stage favourite along with Ginanni and Kirchen.
Anyway: With so few kms, there were no time to waste for the riders. Porte, Sagan, Piamonte and Del Nero escaped on the first km, while Trampusch, D'Andrea, Giraldo, Lund, Bertogliati, Kopp and Scarponi followed in a group after them. They weren't allowed a big gap, though, and were caught shortly afterwards.
This prompted another bunch of riders to attack, and the following went on to form the break of the day: Libert, Balck, Saldarriaga, Aistrup, D'Andrea, Porte and Trampusch.
On the way to the first mountain sprint, they were joined by another bunch of riders: Parra Pinto, Grychenko, Wegelius, Moschella, Sagan, Bertogliati, Del Nero, Giraldo and Grippo.
At the top of the first hill, with 60 km to go, they had a small gap of c. 1 minute.
30 km later, the 15 riders (Aistrup had dropped back to the peloton at this point) in front had managed to increase the gap to 1'35.
The riders in front weren't going to stop the fight for the GC, though. With 2 km to the top, Monfort, 6th in the GC, attacked. Ponzi was the first to react, then followed by Bellis, Mayo and Schwab.
It didn't lead to anything, other than the early breakaway getting caught, so with 20 km to go, the peloton was back together.
Monfort weren't done for today, though. On the last climb, with 7 km to the top, he tried again. Once again, Ponzi was first to react with Anton, Flügel and Kirchen being the followers.
Kirchen and Monfort got the largest gap, distancing the other riders with some metres. LEGO had more attacks to come, though, as Gil attacked shortly after. Schumacher went with him, and that obviously led to another series of attacks. Basically, all the attacks made the groups turn into one stretched-out group with Kirchen, Ginanni, Evans and Gil being the riders in front when the sprint begun.
Kirchen looks set to take the win - but more importantly, he needs a bigger gap to gain important seconds for the GC.
Kirchen takes the win! Gil is right behind him, though, so he will have to be satisfied with the stage victory. There are bonus seconds on this stage, though...
