Big Win for MrBookmaker-Sports Tech

Stefan Van Dijk came out on top of a field sprint in Hoogstraten. The Dutch rider for MrBookmaker worked over heavy-hitters Max Van Heeswijk (Discovery Channel) and Simone Cadamuro (Domina Vacanze) to take the stage. Rik Verbrugghe successfully protected the red leader's jersey.

Today's 196K flat parcours lent itself to a large escape group. Under sunny, but cool skies, a move of 19 formed at 20K into the race. This was to be the day's power-break. The riders in the break: Thorwald Veneberg, Marc Wauters, Bart Dockx, Nick Nuyens, Servais Knaven, Roger Hammond, René Haselbacher, Mads Kaggestad, Lilian Jegou, Alberto Ongarato, Alessandro Ballan, Marco Righetto, Imanol Erviti, Joan Horrach, Koen De Kort, Isidro Nozal, Marco Bos, Geert Omloop, Frederik Veuchelen.

The tempo was hammered-out in this group, but not very effectively. A group the size of 10 or 8 would have been more ideal. Four riders had been dropped by 100K to go, to make a group of 15. The riders out were: Thorwald Veneberg, Nick Nuyens, Joan Horrach and previous stage winner, Alessandro Ballan.

Even with a smaller group of 15 the harmony was not quite there. Behind the peloton was super vigilant and wanted to bring back the escapees. Lampre-Caffita were driving the pace hard to bring it back together. The pacemaking paid off, and at 30K remaining it was gruppo compatto. The last road race stage of the Eneco Tour was going to be a fields sprint.

In the closing kilometers there were bids for freedom by Christophe Kern (Bouygues Telecom), Serguei Ivanov (T-Mobile) and Bas Giling (T-Mobile). Their moves all came to nothing. The teams of MrBookmaker and Davitamon-Lotto were setting the pace on fire approaching Hoogstraten. Tom Steels (Davitamon-Lotto) was given the royal team treatment he deserves, but he failed to come through with the sprint win. Zabel (T-Mobile) gave a stab at the sprint but he too was overhauled. A Dutch duo finished 1-2: Van Dijk and Van Heeswijk. Van Dijk took smart advantage of the Davitamon-Lotto lead-out to win the stage.

It was a big ProTour win for Van Dijk (29) and his team. MrBookmaker are a non-ProTour squad, and the win at the Eneco Tour of Benelux will mean a lot to the sponsors. Rik Verbrugghe (Quick-Step) will seek to defend his leader's jersey in tomorrow's final stage. The stage is a 26K TT, starting across the border in Holland. On paper Verbrugghe should be able to hold off Allan Davis (Liberty Seguros-Würth) for the GC win. However, there are a lot of other threats in the top 10, so you never know.
