Bretagne-Jean Floc'h captures stage and GC
By Jean-François Quénet in Quimperlé
|
It was highly suspected that the Brits would be destroyed by the Bretons during the hardest stage of the Ruban. It happened. Russell Downing had no choice but give the lead to Stéphane Pétilleau, who came 4th while his Bretagne-Jean Floc'h teammate Charles Guilbert won in Quimperlé and now lies in second position overall.
It's a well deserved domination by Bretagne-Jean Floc'h, who never left the British riders from Recycling.co.uk in peace. Jean-Luc Delpech was their man to attack at the foot of the Mur de Bretagne after only 25 kilometres. The very undulating course favoured the breakaways and there were always a few Jean Floc'h riders there. The Brits chased them down all day but ended up empty when the race hit the final circuit, where the steep finishing climb to be done five times was a torture.
With 20km to go, Sébastien Duret (Bretagne-Jean Floc'h), Jonas Lelb (VC Mendrisio) and Ivan Alvarez (Enypesa El Mundo) received the help of Stéphane Pétilleau (Bretagne-Jean Floc'h), Jelle van Groezen (Eurogifts.com), Erik Lievens (Bodysol) and Ivan Santaromita (VC Mendrisio). Another Jean Floc'h rider, Charles Guilbert, came across by himself while Spaniard José Herrada (Enypesa) who had big ambitions for the best young rider classification couldn't hold his pace.
In the middle of these fights, Downing had a mechanical problem. "My rear wheel was catching on the brake," he explained. "I thought maybe it's OK, but no, I had to change it at the top of the climb. I got back on straight to the group but I'm not sure if it has changed the result. All day it was hard for me. I knew today was gonna be hard. To give the leader's jersey to Pétilleau is no problem. He's the strongest. It's just a pity that we lost Rob Hayles too early this week."
Bretagne-Jean Floc'h wasn't just happy with taking the lead, they also wanted to crown it all with the stage win. Climbing for the last time, Guilbert was only followed by Jelle van Groezen. He easily outsprinted the Dutchman: "I didn't expect to win today but an opportunity came and I took it. We had to make the race hard early on and we managed to reverse the situation in our favour."

"We wanted to win more than the others," Pétilleau added.
Guilbert and Pétilleau are former members of big pro teams. Guilbert rode for Mutuelle de Seine-et-Marne, Home Market, Bonjour and Marlux, while Pétilleau defended the colours of Castorama, TVM, Gan and Crédit Agricole. They never achieved at the highest level what they would have liked, but they never lost the passion for the sport. "When I signed for Bretagne-Jean Floc'h in September last year, our directeur sportif Philippe Dalibard made clear that our main goal for the year would be the Ruban Granitier Breton," Guilbert said.
Here we are. A huge Breton crowd is expected in Josselin on Sunday to cheer for an impressive Breton win.
