Alexandre Vinokourov has become legend, winning on top of the famed Mont-Ventoux in stage 4 of the Critérium du Dauphiné Libéré. At the summit of the "Giant of Provence", the 31-year-old held back the Spaniard Gomez-Marchante (Saunier Duval - Prodir) and the Belgian Van Huffel (Davitamon-Lotto) to take top honors on the moon-like mountain. After winning at Liège-Bastogne-Liège earlier this year, Vino has now added another legendary victory to his palmarès.
American, Double-L, Levi Leipheimer defended the yellow jersey, finishing 45" back with Lance Armstrong and Floyd Landis. A hard-test for LL, after 182K of racing, the last 30K which were very painful. Vino is now breathing down LL's neck, 26" in arrears on the GC standings. It will be a tough test for Gerolsteiner over the coming stages.
After 45 minutes into the race, seven riders formed an early move, aided by side-winds. The break: Nicolas Vogondy (Crédit Agricole), Daniel Becke (Illes Balears), Van Huffel (Davitamon-Lotto), Jorg Jaksche (Liberty Seguros Würth), Devis Miorin (Liquigas-Bianchi), Constantino Zaballa (Saunier Duval-Prodir), Elia Rigotto (Domina Vacanze). The move powered along in the high-winds, keeping their gap around 3.5 to 4 minutes. They reached the base of the Mont-Ventoux with a hungry peloton at 4 minutes.
Gerolsteiner lead the hungry peloton in a tempo that would keep LL in contention. There was lots of stress in the peloton as the riders battled winds with Ventoux on their minds. Rubiera (Discovery Channel) and Charteau (Bouygues Telecom) were involved in some earth-to-skin incidents. Charteau came out the worst and retired from the race.
On the slopes of Ventoux a select group moved ahead of a disintegrating peloton. Armstrong, Vinokourov, Landis, Leipheimer, Jaksche, Menchov, Moncoutié, Fritsch, Gomez-Marchante, Landaluze were all in the mix. It was was a move which rode together well until 5K to go, when Gomez-Marchante and Vino put in an attack. They caught Van Huffel, the last survivor from the initial break, and the two riders rode clear with a couple of kilometers to go. With 300 meters to the famed summit, Vino put in the death-blow to Gomez-Marchante. Riding away to glory, erasing the memories of a bad TT the day before. Van Huffel hung on for 3rd behind Gomez-Marchante.
It was a strange day for 6X Tour champion, yo-yo'ing off the back of his group going up the slopes. BiciRace.com thinks he is on form, but did not have the legs to finally get his Mont-Ventoux win. It was also a strange day for Santiago Botero. He had been talking up his chances, but when push came to shove, it was out the big back door, finishing 3 minutes down. But his Phonak bro, No-Fuss Floyd, kept pace with the Texan and LL, to finish 37" back. Nice job Floyd!
