Petacchi Perfetto

The World Championships is 25 September and today Alessandro Petacchi (Fassa Bortolo) demonstrated why he will be the man to beat. Fassa Bortolo performed perfectly, giving their man, Ale-Jet, a train ride into Puertollano. The Italian finished off the job, beating top class sprint-guns: Erik Zabel (T-Mobile) and Tom Boonen (Quick-Step). Bradley McGee (Française Des Jeux) added to his overall lead by winning bonus seconds at the intermediate sprints.

Southern Spain provides plenty of beauty with its landscapes and olive trees, but it was a brutal day in the blistering sun for Javier Pascual Rodríguez (Comunidad Valenciana). Rodríguez put in a bid for freedom on the Alto de la Sierra de Cardeña, the day's only categorized climb (cat. 3), with 83K remaining. It was a grand move for him and his non-ProTour team. There are only two non-ProTour teams in this race, and Comunidad Valenciana was getting plenty of TV time with Rodríguez's move.

Rodríguez had almost 4 minutes with 50K remaining in the day, but he was soon to suffer the fury of the sprinters' teams. His gap steadily came down due to the work of Française Des Jeux for McGee, then Crédit Agricole, Quick-Step and Fassa Bortolo for their sprinters.

Rodríguez was back into the fold and next to go was Thomas Ziegler (Gerolsteiner). The young German quickly opened up an advantage with 17K left to the line. Ziegler really looked like he might have the gas in the tank to survive to the line. At 8K to go he had 25" between him and a mean looking group of sprint teams. Fassa Bortolo started to organize their lead-out with 4K remaining for Petacchi. The Italian train had the young German in their sights with 4K left and his freedom was over.

Fassa had the peloton lined out, but T-Mobile and Quick-Step were moving up for Zabel and Boonen. The Magenta team did their job and delivered Zabel to Petacchi's wheel. Thor Hushovd (Crédit Agricole) was active in the action but he got washed out by a fast rising Boonen. None of the sprinters were a match for Petacchi, who was traveling at 58K/hr. The Italian finished off the work of his teammates with 200 meters remaining. It was a needed win to show that Ale-Jet is back and ready to lead the Squadra Azzurra at the World Championships.
