Oscar Freire missed the latter part of the 2006 season as well as chance at taking a record fourth world road race championship title due to health problems, but he showed no cobwebs on today's opening stage of the Challenge Volta a Mallorca.

The Rabobank rider sprinted home at the end of the 100 kilometre circuit race to land his first win of the season, outpacing José Joaquín Rojas (Caisse d'Epargne), Guennadi Mikhailov (Astana) and the rest of the bunch inside the final 200 metres of the stage. He thus takes the overall lead in the race, which is actually run off as five 1.1 ranked events with a separate general classification for those who elect to do all the stages.

Today's opener saw a strong line-up take part, including former world champions Freire and Tom Boonen (Quickstep-Innergetic), 2006 ProTour winner Alejandro Valverde and Oscar Pereiro (Caisse d'Epargne) plus Erik Zabel (Milram).

How it unfolded

Following a short ceremony to commemorate the late Isaac Gálvez, the Mallorcan sprinter with the Illes Balears team who won the first two stages here last year, things got underway at 11 AM. The race comprised ten laps of a flat ten kilometre out-and-back circuit along Palma's seafront and was run off in sunny conditions and 19°C temperatures; not bad for mid-February.

Francisco Jose Martinez (Andalucia-Cayasur) went clear early on but after his recapture the bunch stayed largely together until the end of lap two when Marcel Sieberg (Milram) beat David Garcia (Karpin-Galicia) and Rodrigo García (Fuerteventura-Canarias) to win the first Meta Volantes sprint. Juan Miguel Mercado (Agritubel) and 2006 stage winner David Kopp (Gerolsteiner) had crashed four kilometres beforehand and withdrew from the race.

One lap after the sprint, a group of fourteen riders was several seconds clear crossing the start/finish line but these were soon reeled in by a hard-chasing peloton. Other groups tried to slip away but had little success in building a significant lead.

Sieberg took the second Meta Volantes sprint on the sixth passage of the finish line, beating Tomas Vaitkus and Garcia and ensuring his place at the head of that competition. The following lap, Toni Tauler of the Selecion Española Pista team (Spanish track team) had a two second lead at the same point of the course but with just thirty kilometres to go to the finish, it was going to be all but impossible to stay away. That didn't stop José Antonio López (Andalucia-Cayasur) from trying but with Rabobank setting things up for Freire, it ensured a big bunch finish and its first win of the season.

The riders will continue tomorrow with the mainly flat 159.4 kilometre Trofeo Cala Millor-Cala Bona.
