A repeat of stages 1 and 2?
Once again, really animating the race, Santambrogio joins the break of the day for stage 3. He is joined by Darmonov, Orlov & Thill.
What is this rider on?!
Despite the gap to the peloton still being 2'00 and with there being 53 KM to go, after claiming the most KOM points and points from the break Santambrogio attacks the rest of the break!
At the same stage we see Kasa, go for a long one, attack out of the bunch. The GC favourites' teams keeping up a good tempo.
Kasa's attack comes to naught and Santambrogio is rejoined by Thill at the foot of the penultimate climb of the day. They have 1'30 on the large peloton.
Thanks to the MOL train, leading a peloton of around 50, the break are swallowed up with 33 KM to go ...
... however, towards the top Santambrogio attacks again! He would be on 61 KOM points at the end of the stage - looking really strong for the KOM jersey overall already.
This time he isn't first over the top, however, that honour goes to Sarmiento (1'44 down in GC) ...
... who puts in a really good descent. Such a good descent, in fact, that he has 1'45 on the peloton with 23 KM to go: 5 KM to go on the final climb.
Nothing from the favourites.
No attacks, or a punishing upping of pace, means Sarmiento could extend his advantage over the top of the final climb. He has 2'45 of an advantage with 17 KM to go.
The stage but also the race lead look his, especially when he pulls out the lead to over 3'00 on the descent.
However, the Colombian rider is a real lightweight! His advantage is really diminished on the flat run-in to the finish. Team Ticos Air Costa Rica and MOL domestiques really push on.
Stage win Chiquita!
Winning by only 1'03 in the end, he didn't do enough to take over the race lead, but Sarmiento takes a well deserved stage win after his gutsy attack. Shocked or exhausted: no celebration as he crosses the line!
Behind, with no real organisation, a group of around 36 riders contest the final in a messy sprint. As on the previous stages it only really kicks off with 1 KM to go. Geschke is easily the fastest finisher in there .....
.... however, he only comes home in 20th place. MOL riders Michely (who is now second in the points competition after his second podium finish) and Pomoshnikov round out the podium on one of those stages where whoever sprints first finishes first .
Geschke has the race lead going into the first mountain top finish on stage 4.
