This is an Ardennes classic. Breakaways have no chance. But that doesnt stop a lot of riders from trying
Heres the 12 that got away: Ford, Van Hummel, Reynes, Jacobs, Deroo, Tondo, Brizuela, Berthou, Lefevre, Parra Pinto, Aulas, Duret
But thats not all. they were joined by more stronger attackers who attacked between 110 and 85km to go - Ulissi, Gerdemann, Klemme, Marzano, Iglinski, Vastaranta, Boom
Those later attackers take control of the break and as the race wears on a few of the weaker riders are dropped from it
With 44km to go, Ricco attacks and reaches the break
A few others - Rodriguez Oliver, LL Sanchez and Cancellara tried to follow but met the descent of that particular hill before they could quite get a gap
Ricco is instrumental in narrowing the break down further with the pack closing in, only Boom, Klemme, Marzano, Iglinski and Gerdemann go with him
32km left and attacks come from the pack - Pin eau, Pozzovivvo and Kashechkin
Here goes Schleck!
Cunego following
Now Hagen and S Sanchez
But the latter 2 cant quite catch Schleck and Cunego
Pozzato is in pursuit ahead of Sanchez Gil, Gilbert, Vanendert and Keinath - with Pineau chasing them
More attackers: Ricco, Kasheckin, Di Luca, Grivko, Iglinski
Attacks ahead also mean that Schleck and Cunego have compnay
Bakelandts and Rodriguez Oliver have made their moves from the peleton as a 5 man lead group emerges: S Sanchez, Schleck, Hagen, Di Luca, Cunego
Chased by 9: Ricco, Sinkewitz, Vanendert, Gilbert, Kashechkin, LL Sanchez, Grivko, Monfort, Pineau
Igglinski, Pozzovivvo, Pozzato, Bakelandts and Rodriguez Oliver are not too far back either - with Keinath and Claeys after them
The 5 up front dont have a huge lead, but if they can keep it then it will be enough as they go under 10km to go
Gadret and Claeys have caught the 3rd group on the road now, with Keinath on his own after them.
Approaching 5km to go, Vanendert leads attacks from the 2nd group
It results in the 14 riders merging into 1 group, albeit spread out, with Sinkewitz taking the lead
Claeys, Rodriguez Oliver, Iglinski and Bakelandts are closing in to make it 18 riders challenging for victory up the Mur de Huy
And Schleck leads as the sprint up the climb begins!
The Mur is tough, and it will be hard for riders to move past others, all going at a similar pace
But Ricco is going very strong and moves up to challenge Schleck
Sprinting up the Mur, Ricco on one side of the road, Schleck on the other
Ricco starts to edge ahead
And he takes it! Riccardo Ricco is the winner of Fleche Wallone 2010
Frank Schleck comes through in 2nd as Cunego outclimbs Hagen for 3rd
Samuel Sanchez takes 5th
Vanendert, LL Sanchez, Gilbert, Sinkewitz and Di Luca round out the Top 10
