Armstrong Holds and Totschnig Doubles Up For Austria

Stage List, Stage Profile, Photos

It has been 70 years since the last, and only, time an Austrian won a grand tour. Today, under hot conditions, Georg Totschnig (Gerolsteiner) made it two for Austria. Totschnig was in a 213K break-away, finishing solo on Ax-3 Domaines. Lance Armstrong (Discovery Channel) responded to all the attacks and even added to his overall lead. Armstrong retained the yellow jersey after being isolated and attacked.

On a super hot day the riders departed from Agde for Ax-3 Domaines. Right from the gun (7K) it was a ten-man group to form: Daniele Nardello (T-Mobile), Alexandre Moos (Phonak), Juan Manuel Garate (Saunier Duval-Prodir), Stefano Garzelli (Liquigas-Bianchi), Walter Beneteau (Bouygues Telecom), Georg Totschnig (Gerolsteiner), Carlos Da Cruz and Philippe Gilbert (Française Des Jeux), Andrei Grivko (Domina Vacanze) and Yuriy Krivtsov (Ag2r-Prévoyance). The 10 worked very well together and gained 8 minutes before the start of the day's first climbs. A set of 4 'small' climbs, before the day's two big climbs.

On the roads before the Port de Pailhères (Hors Cat., 2001m, 15.2K, 8% ave) T-Mobile was amassing at the front of the peloton. On the opening slops of the climb, 40K to go, T-Mobile had blown the field to pieces. Armstrong's team had once again been put under pressure and cracked. While Armstrong was isolated the other GC favorites started firing their missiles. Ullrich (T-Mobile), Basso (Team CSC), Rasmussen (Rabobank) and Vino (T-Mobile) all attacked. Armstrong was put on the ropes and as his rivals rode away on the Port de Pailhères. Ullrich and Basso were delivering their goods. The German-Italian duo had their jerseys unzipped and were hammering on Armstrong's door.

Armstrong kept his cool and put in a move of his own to rejoin the attackers. It worked and an elite group of four formed: Vino, Ullrich, Basso, Landis. The others had cracked under the pressure, but Armstrong had showed his grit under fire. By the top of the Port de Pailhères some calmness had been restored. Floyd Landis (Phonak) and Levi Leipheimer (Gerolsteiner) were then able to had rejoin.

Up front the original 10-man group was torn to shreds under the blistering sun. Only Georg Totschnig (Gerolsteiner) and Stefano Garzelli (Liquigas-Bianchi) were left. Totschnig dropped Garzelli on the Pailhères and was on his own for the day's final climb of AX3 (Cat 1, 1372 m, 9.1K, 7.3% ave). The Austrian had enough time in hand to stay clear for a solo win.

Behind Totschnig the yellow jersey group was exploding again. Vino went for a short dig at the base of the climb, but the move was nullified. It was his teammate, Klöden, that was doing the hard pace for Ulle. Then with 6K to go Basso attacked. The attack was slow, Ulle and Tex got on quick, with Leipheimer and Landis trailing behind. The latter two Americans faded with 5K remaining. Up front it was Tex's turn to crank up the pace. They picked up birthday boy, Garzelli, who had been away all day. Only Georg was remaining up the road. Armstrong appeared in control and driving towards a 7th Tour de France win. Ulle faded under 2K when Armstrong cranked the pace up to full speed. Basso hung on to Armstrong and the two fought it out. The Italian finishing behind a storming American by a few seconds.

Christophe Moreau (Crédit Agricole) cracked heavily today and Basso benefited by moving into 3rd overall. Rasmussen lost a little time to Armstrong and Basso, but the Dane was able to hold on to his 2nd in GC. Tomorrow, stage 15, will be even a harder day for Armstrong and the others. The Pyrenees are going to hit the 92nd Tour de France at full strength with four Cat 1 climbs, followed by the Hors Category finish to Pla d'Adet.
