Hondo wins heat-shortened stage
By Susan Westemeyer
Team Lamonta's sprinter Danilo Hondo took the win in the heat-shortened second stage of the Sachsen International Tour. He outsprinted Mark Renshaw (Credit Agricole) and Wesley van der Linden (Chocolade Jacques).
The race management took one climb out of the race, reducing it from 228 km to 216 km, due to temperatures over 30°.
No escape group was able to establish itself during the stage, despite multiple attacks. However, the peloton divided itself eventually into two groups. The second group took the day more slowly, and was taken off the round course at the end of the stage. It was so far behind the lead group that the race management feared a collision between the two groups on the closed course.
The yellow jersey winner from the first stage, Pedro Horrillo, was in the second group, and so turned over the leader's jersey to his teammate, Alexander Kolobnev.
Friday's third stage is the race's Queen stage, with 4 mountains to be climbed.
