Theres barely a flat road on the route, packed with hills. Last years shock winner Boogerd has retired, and Gesink will look to pick up the mantle as leading Dutchman.
After a huge amount of early attacks, a break of 7 eventually got clear
Ford, Wu, Herrero Llorente, Quinziato, Joly, Geslin, Hacecky
With 150km to go Iglinski and Marzano attacked the peleton, at 145km Chavanel and Cataldo went, and then also Pineau and Velits with 123km to go
Meaning a break group of 13 with 100km to
But Rabobank figured greatly in the chase and with 50km to go the catch is imminent - despite Rabobank loosing Kroon to a puncture
First meaningful attack comes with 36km to go, Sinkewitz
He is joined by Ulissi, Pozzato and Sella
They hold a minute on the pack with 23km to go
Sella is dropped a couple of km later though as Ricco and Schleck attack!
Hagen, Di Luca and Vanendert follow
And Gesink as well
S. Sanchez goes on the next hill as well, amid more action
Here's the situation with around 13km to go:
About 40 seconds behind E3 is a 5 man group with Cunego, Keinath, Posthuma, Zaballa and de la Fuente.
More attacks now
Hagen flies clear!
Ginanni tries to follow but cant as Gesink leads a strong response with Rodriguez Oliver, Schleck and Di Luca following
Gesink is out of 'attackness' and passed with Rodriguez Oliver lasting a little further
Schleck now pounces out from the Virgin Rider to set off after Hagen with Di Luca and Ulissi following
And they catch Hagen to make a group of 4
Rodriguez Oliver is close
With Gesink only a little further back
And then the chasers: S Sanchez, Ricco, Pozzato, Sinkewitz, Ginanni, Vanendert
The race looks between thses 12 as a group of Sella, Claeys, Cunego, Monfort and Bettini are over a minute behind those chasers.
Rodriguez Oliver manages to catch the front group
But with the finish coming into view, it doesnt seem like Gesink will
Onto the Cauberg! Schleck is in the lead
And he starts off the sprint!
Already Di Luca, Hagen and Ulissi are struggling to keep up and look to be battling with each other, with Rodriguez Oliver slipping back a little
Schleck has really powered away
And Frank Schleck wins the Amstel Gold Race 2010!
Hagen takes 2nd, but its tight for 3rd
Di Luca just edges out Ulissi
5th for Rodriguez Oliver as Ginanni sprints to 6th
Ricco wins a close sprint for 7th ahead of S Sanchez and a fading Gesink
Vanendert is 10th, ahead of Sinkewitz and Pozzato
All the first 12 came from different teams, with Cunego coming next for 13th
