Botero Not Afraid

As they say in Italian, "Che tappa!" Today's stage did nothing but excite as the favorites laid down their cards in stage 6 of the Critérium du Dauphiné Libéré. The Col de Joux-Plane set the stage of the battlefield where Santiago Botero (Phonak) made a strong move for GC and stage victory. He did not secure enough time to snatch the overall, but he did score an epic battle victory. The Colombian was hammering on the descent into Morzine. Botero's move was daring, and he demonstrated how to win a race in style, by putting it all on the line.

The attacking started departing Albertville. Teams fought to get their men in a break and finally a solid break formed. A group of seven took shape before the beginning of the nasty col's: Col de la Forclaz (Cat 1), Col de la Croix-Fry (Cat 1), Col de la Colombière (Cat 1), Côte de Chatillon (Cat 4), and Col de Joux-Plane (HC). The group worked superbly together, forming a sizable gap over the mellow-yellow peloton. In the group were: Iván Gutiérrez (Illes Balears), Juan Miguel Mercado (Quick-Step), Rémy Di Grégorio (Française des Jeux), Joost Posthuma (Rabobank), Massimo Giunti (Fassa Bortolo), Enrico Gasparotto (Liquigas-Bianchi), Sylvain Calzati (AG2R).

In the valley, after descending the Col de la Colombière, the explosions started. Armstrong and Hincapie were firing off missiles for team Disco. Merckx was feeling rather confident after yesterday and joined in on the warfare. Phonak brought out the heavy hitters, Landis/Botero, to mix it up. It was nasty fighting that shelled riders off the back while reducing the deficit to the leading group of 7.

Soon the peloton had passed through Morillon to ascend the slopes of the mighty Joux-Plane. The early 7-man break had been smashed by the favorites. There was a French-Colombian pact, and Moncoutie and Botero went flying up the road. Botero's French friend was no match for the Colombian on the 11K climb (ave 8.3% gradient), and Botero set out to win the stage victory. He topped the climb and barreled down the mountain to Morzine, winning his 2nd stage of the Critérium du Dauphiné Libéré.

On the slopes in the distance, an all-star cast of riders was forming, isolating the GC-man, Iñigo Landaluze. No-Fuss Floyd, 6X Armstrong and Vino were going ballistic. Vino, never afraid of blowing-up, launched repeatedly on the all-star group. The T-Mobile man was reeled in, and 6X fired with 1K. Armstrong looked on super form, riding super-smooth. All was held more-or-less together over the summit and to the finish. Landaluze (Euskaltel-Euskadi) held tough, minimizing losses and maintaining his GC jersey. A nice ride by the Spaniard considering his weak team.

Tomorrow the final earthquakes will rock the house. Phonak is sure to go all-out on Euskaltel-Euskadi, and Armstrong will have to decide if the GC victory is worth it. Word around the BiciRace.com office says that it would be well worth the effort! Tex could use a win before the Tour de France as a little insurance. Stay tuned for tomorrow!
