Giacinti takes overall, Mancebo an interesting third
By Hernan Alvarez
Argentina's Jorge Giacinti (Lider) has won the inaugural UCI 2.2 ranked Tour de San Luis in his home country. The winner finished the 606 kilometre race in 14 hours, 40 minutes and 14 seconds while local rider Fernando Antogna (San Luis A) was second 37 seconds behind and Francisco Mancebo (Relax-GAM) third, 55 seconds behind Giacinti.
Spain's Daniel Moreno (Relax-GAM) won the fifth and final stage in two hours, 54 minutes and 15 seconds. Fausto Esparza (Tecos Trek) and Diego Simeani (Telefonicos) were second and third respectively with the same time.
How it unfolded
Today's stage had many moves: Juan Curuchet, Alfredo Lucero (San Luis A) and Gabriel Richard (Seleccion Argentina sub 23) made the right breakaway at the middle of the stage, around km 70. 20 kilometres later Xavier Volpini (España Madre Patria), Fausto Esparza (Tecos Trek), Diego Simeani (Telefonicos) and Daniel Moreno bridged across the gap to join the leading breakaway.
However, with around 20 km remaining, the peloton upped the tempo and reeled in the escapees, setting up the race for a bunch sprint. Moreno had plenty left in the tank despite his earlier efforts and took out the sprint comfortably.
Giacinti told a local newspaper post stage: "I am very happy and this achievement is brought by all my team that worked very hard. We came to try to do a good race and we got the victory, so I can't be happier. I always won outside my country. This is my first tour in my country and I wanted to show everyone what I am capable of."
Around 40,000 fans followed the race through the roads of San Luis on today's stage.
