Stage 4, Wanze - Hotton, 193K

9 May

McJet's Belgian Bis

Stage List, Stage Profile, Photos

Robbie McEwen (Davitamon-Lotto) knows how to do his thing: winning sprints without much help at all. Today in stage 4 of the Giro d'Italia, the last in Belgium, Aussie McJet battled the trains of Milram and T-Mobile to once again show his sprint dynamics. McEwen, with today's win, obtained enough points to take over the Maglia Ciclamino, while Stefan Schumacher (Gerolsteiner), in the Maglia Rosa, stayed safe and continues to lead the general classification. Tonight the riders travel to Italia, tomorrow is a rest day and then Thursday will be the stage 5 team time trial.

Did anyone else notice the sunshine today at the start in Wanze. BiciRace.com had to pull out the SPF 5 for protection, we would have opted for a greater level of protection, but they don't sell above 5 in Italy! ... We are abbronzato!

The peloton rolled out of Wanze, under sunshine, heading for Hotton. Two GPMs were en route, but not large enough to make a difference to the men of speed. This last stage in Belgium was going to be a sprinter's stage come hell or high water.

10K into the action a group of five went clear. The composition of the escape, with two Italiani, was: Sandy Casar (Française Des Jeux), Patrick Calcagni (Liquigas), Jurgen Van de Walle (Quick-Step), Grischa Niermann (Rabobank) and Alessandro Bertolini (Selle Italia). Highest in GC was Niermann, who was 1'11" down at the start of the day.

The Rabo man was wearing the virtual Maglia Rosa for most of the day. The escape gruppo built up to nearly seven minutes over the peloton before the wall came tumblin' down. Behind Quick-Step (for Bettini), Milram and T-Mobile (for Pollack) were whipping up the pace to bring back the escapees at the right moment: too early and there would be counter attacks, too late and there would be no sprint finish.

The chase was right on time, -22K it was under one minute, and by -20K it was GRUPPO COMPATTO. Alessandro Petacchi, who crashed out yesterday, would have been proud of his Treno Milram. The boys were flying along the very green country side in honor of their fallen leader, and with hopes of putting Mirco Lorenzetto over the line first.

The roads were straight and lacked the numerous roundabouts that the riders usually face in a dash to the finish. The only difficulty came in the form of German, Jens Voigt, who put in a solo attack at -4K, that lasted only one kilometer. After the CSC man was back to the peloton the sprint was ON.

Milram and T-Mobile were charging head to head, while McEwen and Bettini were floating around to take advantage of the work being done by the other trains. Into the last kilometer Milram looked to have ultimate control, when up the right T-Mobile relaunched their train, which was followed by the McJet blast.

The Aussie sprinter took advantage of the momentary confusion and nailed it for the white line. The win was Robbie's, with Bettini getting second, both riders who did not have a true train in the finale. The work of McEwen secured one last win on the home soil of the team's sponsor: Bravo McEwen.

A special nod to Alberto Loddo (Selle Italia-Serramenti Diquigiovanni), he was up there again today, in third, after being one of the main protagonists in yesterday's stage to Namur. Paolo Bettini must be giving his compatriot some tips. ... Andremmo in Italia!

Fabio Sacchi: "We gave it all today for Alessandro. We tried to setup the sprint for the young Lorenzetto, but it did not work out."

Paolo Bettini, 3rd: We arrived very, very fast. It was a nice sprint, but it's always McEwen. It is too bad because the team is trying everyday, on the flat and on yesterday's stage to Namur."

Robbie McEwen: "It was very difficult. The last five kilometers had all of the GC guys still up front, so it was crowded. In the last 3K I waited and waited for Milram and the others to launch. Finally T-Mobile went, then Milram, and then I was able to do my sprint. ... The straight roads are more difficult for me, and they make it possible for everyone to come to the front."
