Giro d'Italia, Italy

Stage 13, Mezzocorona - Ortisei, 218K,

21 May

Parra Wins as GC Battle Brews

Stage List, Stage Profile, Photos

The Giro d'Italia was turned upside down today on the Pontives. The maglia rosa, Ivan Basso, was dropped by a hard charging Paolo Savoldelli and Gilberto Simoni. By the finish line in Ortisei, the Team CSC leader had lost the leader's jersey. Savoldelli (Discovery Channel) is now the new leader on GC, in pink after a three year absence. Il Falco arrived with a 7" advantage to Simoni (Lampre-Caffita) and Danilo Di Luca (Liquigas-Bianchi), and a whopping 1'09" to Basso. Now the Disco leader is 50" ahead of Basso on the overall, and Di Luca trails just 53" behind.

Today's stage was not all about the fight for the prized maglia rosa. There was another battle going on - the battle for stage victory, that brewed over 200K and 6 hours. Rising from a group of attackers was the Colombian, Ivan Parra. Finally after so many stages of attacking, the Selle Italia-Colombia team got their win. Parra arrived ahead of Garate and Rujano at 24", and further back at 4 minutes was the battle for GC.

For the fans it was a most magnificent stage, covering five GPM's and 218K, from Mezzocorona to Ortisei. The race was set on fire practically from the get-go. 200K from the line, a 21-man moved formed and worked together with perfection all the way to the day's last climb. It was on the climb to Ortisei that elite climbers rose to the occasion. But it was Parra who put in the last blow, at 8K to go, to achieve his victory. The 29 year old rider jammed his way up the mountain for a glorious win on the prestigious mountain stage.

As predicted the GC battle really started to take place on the Passo delle Erba (15.2K in length, 60K to go). The missiles were fired by Lampre-Caffita on the scenic switchbacks leading up the mountain. The Cunego-Simoni duo attacked and made a hard tempo, immediately stringing out the group behind. Their advantage only ever hovered around 20 to 40 seconds, and was not a real threat to Team CSC. Basso had his men Zabriskie and Schleck working wonders for him, but he appeared weak. Eventually the Lampre-Caffita duo was back into the fold for the fast and swooping decent to the valley, leaving only 15K before the final ascent.

Just when you thought that the stage might come to nothing, the race for the GC exploded. At 7K to go the race went "kaaa-boom!" Basso was finally without his American/Luxemburgian protectors. Simoni fired, and Il Falco quickly joined in. Basso went quickly into the red, along with Cioni and Cunego. The official CSC word is that their leader had stomach problems, but we think it might have been a problem with the angle of the road. Nonetheless, Basso kept pace and did not blow completely, leaving open his opportunities for GC lead, unlike Cunego in stage 11.

The amazing ride of the day was by Di Luca, in the all-white strip of ProTour leader. Everyday he looks more and more likely to place high in Milano. Today he rode above and beyond as the Liquigas-Bianchi team leader. Garzelli did not start and Cioni lacked the fire-power. This little punchy rider has been on form since the Pais Vasco in early April!

All attention is now on tomorrow's stage 14 which takes the riders over lo Stelvio. Read all about stage 14 in today's news or read more on today's stage 13 in the humorous report by The Dust Devil.
