Pereiro and Voigt Victorious in Montélimar

The Tour de France's longest stage saw German Jens Voigt (CSC) win from an escape of five, finishing 29'57" in front of the peloton. The five men, escaping at 21K, were controlled all day by the Phonak-led peloton. The Swiss squadra worked to perfection for their captain, Floyd Landis, allowing the escape's gap grow toward the finish; letting Spaniard Oscar Pereiro take the yellow and gaining a possible ally in Caisse d'Epargne-Illes Balears. Tomorrow continues with another grueling transition stage before Monday's stage to Alpe d'Huez.

A blazing hot day greeted the riders for stage 13 of the Tour, a transition stage from Béziers to Montélimar. The longest stage of the Tour contained five climbs, all small but ones that would add up after 230K in the saddle. The five climbs: Côte de Peuchabon (Cat. 4 at 57.5K), Côte de la Cardonille (Cat. 4, 77.5K), Côte de l’Arbousset (Cat. 4, 119.5K), Côte de Saint-Maurice d’Ibie (Cat. 4, 195.5K) and Côte de Villeneuve de Berg (Cat. 4, 205.5K).

The day started early for German Voigt, attacking at 21K. He was joined by five others: Pereiro, Sylvain Chavanel and Arnaud Coyot (both Cofidis), Manuel Quinziato (Liquigas) and Andriy Grivko (Milram). Coyot was sent back to the peloton at 26K; giving each of the remaining five riders an equal advantage for the day.

The gap was at 30" when Coyot left but this gap jumped up to 5'10" by 50K; 9'05" by the first climb and 13'00" by 74.5K. The five-man move started to look to have potential but you never know. A slight twitch in the peloton could instantly erase the escape's advantage. Luckily none of the five were a threat to the overall GC lead of No-Fuss Floyd. The highest placed rider was Pereiro at 28'50" back, and that is exactly what Floyd's team, Phonak let the advantage drift to.

Normally escapes start to lose time as the kilometers count down, but today it was the reverse: the five had 19'40" at the first sprint in Anduze (117.5K) and then 27'10" by the second sprint in Vallon-Pont d'Arc (177.5K).

Pereiro was in sight of taking the yellow jersey, he only had to make sure he finished with enough time on Landis and Maillot Jaune would be his. Phonak smartly helped the Spaniard achieve his dream, letting the advantage slide to 29'57" by the finish. Phonak's advantage with today's maneuver was two-fold: help achieve a needed alliance with another team, Caisse, and get rid of the race leadership responsibilities for two days.

All that was left to do was for the five up front was to fight out the stage. With 500m to go to the final Côte, at 205K, Grivko blasted away; the first attack since the 21K mark. The Ukrainian sealed his death, he was quickly chased down by Quinziato and then the others before being spat out the back before the top of the Côte de Villeneuve de Berg.

Frenchman Chavanel was next to give it a go, attacking at -14K. Again, Quinziato was first to reel in the attack, later rejoined by Voigt and Pereiro. Chavanel threw a few more punches but none of them ever landed. The four continued in harmony until 5K from Montélimar. Voigt threw down the hammer and only Pereiro was able to respond.

The duo rode into town together and were seen talking along the way. Voigt wanted the stage win and Pereiro would likely take the yellow, but the Spaniard had to be sure that Phonak would not pick up the pace and ruin his chances. When Voigt attacked and -900m, Pereiro was fast to respond, there would be no gifts to Voigt. Pereiro, worried that he might not get the yellow, stayed on the Germans wheel all the way to -200m, where Voigt attacked again.

The very likable Voigt was able to hold off the chase by Pereiro and put a smile on the face of his Danish CSC squadra. Voigt added to his Tour palmarès, which now include two stage wins and two days in the Maillot Jaune. Pereiro, stage winner in last year, lost the sprint but gained the yellow jersey when the peloton finished 29'57" back.
