Vuelta a España, Spain

Stage 12, Logroño - Burgos, 148.0K

8 September

Crashes, But Petacchi Reins

Stage List, Stage Profile, Photos

Alessandro Petacchi (Fassa Bortolo) won his fourth stage on the shortest stage of the 60th Vuelta a España. What looked like a fairly routine day in the saddle turned into suffering for Roberto Heras (Liberty Seguros-Würth). The 3X Vuelta champion came down hard and bloodied his knees. Heras finished the stage but his condition is unknown. Denis Menchov (Rabobank) remains in gold, looking ahead to tomorrow's small summit finish.

Today's stage was a blessing for some, a short and flat stage, following an official rest day. Officials shortened the stage to 134K, making the day even better. Relax Fuenlabrada rider, Luis Pérez, gave a stab at freedom early on, at 7K. His move was allowed its freedom by the Fassa Bortolo riders. The sprint team of Petacchi planned on reeling the rider in later.

Pérez had built up a lead of 4'45" with 100K remaining. Team bosses at Relax Fuenlabrada were thrilled with their TV time and Pérez's efforts. The day contained two 'small' climbs, both cat 3. By the top of the first one, the Alto de Pradilla, the red rider still had a 4'35" advantage ... not bad. Moving on to the second climb, the Alto de Valmala, the Spaniard was suffering but still had 3'41"

Back in the peloton a Relaxed day turned into panic, when before the start of the Alto de Valmala Heras came tumbling down. There was a touching of wheels and few riders crashed. Heras came away with bloody and bandaged knees, there are no reports yet on his condition. Heras did finish the day with Menchov, thus not losing any time. Jakob Piil (Team CSC) came off worse, and was taken off in an ambulance. The Dane hit the strada (or 'calle') very hard, and was motionless for quite some time while receiving treatment. At the end of the day Piil had no broken bones, and was to be released after his wounds were tended to. BiciRace.com wishes Piil and Heras the best.

The chaos subsided and the teams of the sprinters got down to business: squashing the escape and ravaging the final 5000 meters. By 12K to go it was gruppo compatto, then Benjamin Noval (Discovery Channel) launched an ineffective attack. T-Mobile and Team CSC were up front down to 3K to go, and then it was the white and blue boys, Fassa Bortolo. A sharp right hander did not diminish their efforts, the Fassa boys delivered Ale-Jet perfectly. The Italian won his fourth Vuelta stage and looks primed for a Worlds victory in Madrid.

Tom Steels (Davitamon-Lotto) again gave a dig, but he was winded when it came time to actually sprint. Erik Zabel (T-Mobile) is always there with solid form, but can't come through for the win. Fassa and Ale-Jet are simply the best sprint machine on the Vuelta startlist.
