The peloton is already formed to start the fourth stage of the Tour of Qatar, and the riders are ready to face another flat stage under the Arabian heat. Tom Boonen is still the biggest favourites, but Thomas Vedel Kvist showed yesterday that he can be beaten, and beating him is exactly what
Daniele Bennati Ben Swift
and others want.
After attacking in the very first meter of the race, 5 riders quickly open a 1 minute gap
Aidis Kruopis Francisco Javier Echarri Yoann Offredo Adam Blythe Taylor Tolleson
are up the road.
Only 18km into the stage, and the gap has grown to 3 minutes. We have our breakaway of the day, the most rapidly formed so far in this race.
In the first intermediate sprint, Tolleson goes first under the banner thanks to a well timed attack, and Offredo outsprints Kruopis for the second place. Neither Echarri or Blythe seemed bothered at all by the sprint. The gap is now 5'30'', but still with 97km to go, so plenty of time for the peloton to start the chase.
And, with 90km to go, Pokerstars.com thinks it's time to chase. It might be a bit soon, but the Belgian team sends two men to work at the front.
In the second intermediate sprint, Tolleson is first again, ahead of Kruopis and Offredo. Good move by the American, who has already got more bonus seconds in this race than many top sprinters. The gap has clearly been reduced by now, mainly thanks to Pokerstars' work, and it's just 1'48'' with 35km to go.
20km to go, and the breakaway is done, although Blythe and Echarri are trying a desperate attack. Puma - SAP has now taken the control in the peloton, with full confidence to take a second victory.
Finally, with 15km to go, the peloton swallows the breakaway, so we should have a calm approach to the last kilometers.
Under 10km to go, and the overload of Puma and Vesuvio riders at the front is easily noticeable. There aren't as many Pokerstars.com riders, will they prepare their own train today?
Looks like they won't! As usual, with 4km to go, we have the Puma - SAP train going full gas with
Sébastien Minard
Enrico Gasparotto
Thomas Vedel Kvist
Daniele Bennati
followed also by Sam Bewley and Dan Holloway
There's also the Vesuvio - Accumalux train, with:
Marcel Kittel
Pedro Merino Criado
Steven Caethoven
Ben Swift
followed by Maximiliano Richeze
behind both trains, we can find tom boonen, Juan José Haedo and Romain Vanderbiest fighting for a good position.
Inmediately afterwards, Boonen takes Richeze out of Swift's wheel, and the Vesuvio train starts getting closer to Puma's thanks to Merino Criado's work.
Indeed, with 3km to go, they are almost side by side, which are very good news for Boonen, and for other sprinters following him, like Michael Van Stayen, Greg Van Avermaet or Gerald Ciolek.
The last leadout men go with 2km to go, and yesterday's winner Thomas Vedel Kvist is going faster than Steven Caethoven, giving Bennati and Bewley a great position.
1500m to go, and Caethoven is so much slower than Kvist that the position for Bennati and Bewley is just excellent. Van Avermaet has realised of this, and is going for the Kiwi's wheel.
Entering the last kilometer, Van Avermaet, Ciolek, Óscar Guerao and Van Stayen are already launching their sprint, but the advantage of Bennati and Bewley is still big. Swift is also launching his sprint, with Boonen just behind.
Ánd Bennati and Bewley finally go with 700m to go. One of them should be the winner after Kvist's perfect leadout.
They pass Kvist with 500m to go, and although Boonen and Richeze are coming very fast, the victory should be for one of them.
Bennati - Bewley, Bewley - Bennati, it's gonna be very close, and Boonen is fighting hard with Richeze for the remaining bonus seconds.
Daniele Bennati takes Puma's second stage win in a row! Great victory for the Italian, after a perfect leadout by yesterday's winner Thomas Vedel Kvist. Fantastic second place as well for Sam Bewley, although being so close to the win surely hurts the Milka rider a bit. Behind, Maximiliano Richeze beats Tom Boonen for the narrowest margin, and denies the Belgian some very important bonus seconds, although he's still the biggest GC favourite. Another good result as well for Romain Vanderbiest getting the 5th place.
Only one day for the sprinters left, possibly Ben Swift is the one who has the biggest pressure to perform, as one of the pre-race favourites, he hasn't got one single win so far, and not just he has difficult to get a podium, but even a top 10 in great danger for him. Sam Bewley, who has improved his performances in the last couple of stages will also want to take one victory, and Daniele Bennati will still try the incredibly difficult task of getting the overall ahead of Tom Boonen.
