Ongarato takes over
Although Fassa Bortolo's local star Kim Kirchen missed the break in stage 1, his teammate Alberto Ongarato made up for it in the second stage by winning it and taking over the leader's jersey. In another bunch sprint, Ongarato beat Matteo Carrara (Team Barloworld-Valsir) and Serguei Ivanov (T-Mobile Team), with 48 riders finishing in the same time as the leader.
"This victory means a lot for me," said Ongarato. "Because it reminds me that when I have carte blanche, I can still hold my own. I am totally a man for Petacchi's train and that makes me very happy, but when Ferretti decided to come up here, I played my cards and I showed him that I can do well, and I am satisfied. It's good for the morale.
"The finale was difficult because there were a series of climbs. With about 2.5 km to go, Ivanov attacked and I followed. He did not pull because he knows that I am fast. Fortunately, with a kilometre to go, eight men including Frigo and Bernucci caught up, and Bernucci immediately started to lead out the sprint. After what happened yesterday, I did not want to be surprised and I jumped when there were 250 metres to go, succeeding to win my seventh race as a professional. I thank my team, because without them I couldn't have done it."
