Rastelli claims sodden first stage, Casagrande out with broken wrist

26 year old Ellis Rastelli (Liquigas) overcame wet, slippery conditions and a strong 15 man breakaway containing most of the favourites to win stage one of the Giro d'Italia in Francavilla Al Mare. Rastelli sprinted past Ukranian Vladimir Duma (Panaria) with 150 metres to go, while Gabriele Colombo (Cantina Tollo) held of ONCE's Abrham Olano for third. Maglia Rosa Rik Verbrugghe finished fifth on the stage, and kept his lead over Fassa Bortolo's Dario Frigo.

The 202 kilometre stage from Giulianova to Francavilla Al Mare contained one major climb, the Colle del Capraro (1320 m, km 66) and a much shorter but steeper one in Chieti with 20 kilometres to go. It was here that the stage winning move was made, while the wet conditions exerted a considerable degree of carnage on the peloton.

Prior to this, there was the matter of two fugitive riders, Domenico Gualdi (Mobilvetta) and Mirko Marini (Liquigas), who attacked at the 11th kilometre to reach a maximum lead of 7'45 by kilometre 50. Gualdi took the mountain points on the Colle del Capraro as Rik Verbrugghe's Lotto squad rode tempo at the front of the peloton.

The gap was falling steadily as the pair worked to maintain their lead at least until the second GPM at Chieti. It was not to be and they were caught a few kilometres before the hairpinned climb. There had already been several falls in the peloton by this stage, one involving Telekom's Jan Ullrich, Kevin Livingston and Simone Borgheresi (Mercatone), but they managed to get back to the peloton in time.

It was more serious for Mapei's Luca Scinto, who came off at just before the climb at Chieti, and it looked as though he'd broken his collarbone. Ruslan Ivanov (Alessio), Unai Osa (iBanesto), Andrea Peron (Fassa Bortolo), Paolo Savoldelli (Saeco), and Serguei Gontchar (Liquigas) were some of the other casualties on the slippery narrow roads.

The most serious of all, in terms of affecting the outcome of the Giro, was Francesco Casagrande (Fassa Bortolo). Last year's runner up and hot favourite for this year's race was involved in a fall that resulted in a fractured left wrist. Hospital x-rays confirmed the damage after the stage, and although he managed to finish in the main peloton (48th) at 37 seconds down, he will not be starting tomorrow. A bitter end for the world number one.

The best way to stay out of trouble was to be near the front, and on the climb the peloton split into several groups. 10 riders: Ermanno Brignoli, Marco Pantani (Mercatone Uno), Gilberto Simoni, Mariano Piccoli (Lampre), Jose Luis Arrieta (iBanesto.com), Wladimir Belli (Fassa), Jan Hruska, Abraham Olano (ONCE), Vladimir Duma (Panaria), and Giuseppe Di Grande (Tacconi) formed a a leading group, with a beardless Pantani going for the GPM at the top.

Not far behind these riders was the Maglia Rosa, Rik Verbrugghe (Lotto), who towed José Azevedo (ONCE), Oscar Camenzind (Lampre), Gabriele Colombo (Cantina Tollo), Ellis Rastelli (Liquigas), and Dario Frigo (Fassa Bortolo) up to the leaders with 10 kilometres left.

By this stage, the gap was around 30 seconds as Mapei, Saeco and Alessio tried to get organised on the front of the bunch to catch the 15 in front. It wasn't going to happen though as the parcours was still too narrow and dangerous to mount a serious chase. Some of the Lampre riders in front were even taking their feet out of the pedals around the corners!

Although ONCE, Mercatone Uno, Fassa Bortolo and Lampre had numbers in the break, there was no cat and mouse, as everyone wanted to gain time on those behind, especially Francesco Casagrande and Stefano Garzelli. The final gap was a handy 37 seconds, as Belli led out the sprint, before Vladimir Duma came around him with 250m to go. Duma's speed wasn't enough though, when Ellis Rastelli blitzed past him to take the stage clearly, the biggest of his three career wins by a long way.

Tomorrow's stage will be more suited to the sprinters, 167 from Fossacesia to Lucera, although the finish is uphill.
