One more day of glory for Downing
By Jean-François Quénet in Plaintel
|
French policeman Stéphane Bonsergent, who already won a stage in the Tour of Normandy last month, has taken the first bunch sprint of the 39th Ruban Granitier Breton in Plaintel. Russell Downing remains the race leader although he has missed out the time bonus by finishing only 4th in the stage.
"I went too early, the Englishman admitted. "I was ahead until 50 metres to go but I was going slower and slower. I didn't have very good legs today. I was in the second group at the top of one climb, [Stéphane] Pétilleau had more guys than me, I only had Paul Manning who brought me back to the front."
The Recycling.co.uk team paced the bunch for most of the day behind the four leaders: Julien Belgy (Vendée U), Philippe Vaillant (French Police), Julien Simon (Super Sport) and Julien Guiborel (SCO Dijon). But at the end, it was up to Bretagne-Jean Floc'h to close the gap. They would have liked to leave the leaders away in order to prevent Downing from taking the bonus but they caught the three remaining attackers anyway.

"It was good for me that the bunch stayed together at the end," Downing said. "It's been one more day with no danger. It might be more difficult to keep the jersey tomorrow, everyone tells me this is the hardest stage." The riders will go over the famous Mur de Bretagne and contest the win in Quimperlé on an extremely steep uphill finish.
Another duel between Downing and Pétilleau is expected but Bonsergent now lies in 3rd position and hopes to be on the final podium on Sunday. "I came fifth in the Tour of Normandy and I have targeted the Ruban Granitier Breton as my next goal, I actually feel better when I get a chance to ride the international races," the French policeman commented.
