Stage 7 - June 16: Morzine-Avoriaz - Genève, 150 km
Armstrong right on target for Tour with Dauphiné win
Gutierrez takes another stage for Kelme
By Jeff Jones
 |
In his final racing appointment before the Tour de France, Lance Armstrong has come away with an impressive win in the 54th Critérium du Dauphiné Libéré. It was the first time he had conquered this event, after placing third in 2000 and eighth in 1999, and exorcising a few ghosts along the way. As has been the case for the last two years, Armstrong will go into the Tour de France in three weeks time as the number one favourite.
He could also take heart from an opportunistic and gutsy ride from his teammate Floyd Landis, who took second overall in the classification 2'03 behind his leader. In third place after a good ride yesterday was Christophe Moreau (Credit Agricole), who is certainly another podium challenger for the Tour.
The final 150 km stage from Morzine-Avoriaz to Genève saw Kelme's Jose Enrique Gutierrez win in front of Christophe Oriol (Ag2r), after the two had attacked a 10 man breakaway. Brad McGee finished third and won the points jersey from his Francaise des Jeux teammate Baden Cooke, who finished on equal points.

The stage saw the remaining 86 riders depart Morzine-Avoriaz at noon, once again in the very warm conditions that have been a feature all week. After a first hour ridden at 35 km/h, the attacks started with David Millar (Cofidis), David Latasa (iBanesto), Brad McGee (Francaise des Jeux) and Alexei Sivakov (BigMat) getting clear, chased down by Santiago Botero (Kelme), and Unai Osa (iBanesto). Osa and Sivakov went back to the peloton, as Christophe Oriol (Ag2r), Jerome Bernard and Patrice Halgand (Jean Delatour), Xavier Jan (Big Mat), Ludovic Martin (Credit Agricole) and Jose Enrique Gutierrez (Kelme) came up to what turned out to be the winning break.
Latasa took the points on the only climb of the day (Col du Cou) in front of Botero and Millar, and the break had reached a 1'47 lead by the foot of the descent. However, the leaders kept the pressure on an the gap was 4'30 as they hit the final 10 x 7.1 km finishing circuits in Geneva. With two laps to go, the attacks started in front as Oriol, McGee, Bernard and Gutierrez escaped from the remaining six riders, who did not see them again.

McGee was contesting the intermediate sprints to try and ensure his team won the points jersey, but with one lap to go he couldn't follow the attack of Oriol and Gutierrez, who stayed away to win the stage. Gutierrez won the sprint and couldn't believe it. "I did not think to win so easily," he said. "But, when Christophe Oriol suddenly dropped off, I understood that I had earned the race. It was my biggest professional victory. I would like to repeat my performance in a stage of the Tour".
Just over five minutes behind him finished the peloton containing Lance Armstrong, who became the third American to win the Dauphiné after Tyler Hamilton (2000) and Greg Lemond (1983). He considered it an important test before the Tour, coming on top of his Midi Libre win and second in the Criterium Internationale. "I felt better every day despite the heat. I felt much better in Saturday's mountain stage than I did on Ventoux on Tuesday," said Armstrong afterwards.
"Like every year, people will say that I'm ready too early but I have to say I feel very confident," he added. All of his racing and specific training done, Armstrong will now spend three weeks with his family before arriving in Luxembourg to try and win his fourth Tour de France.

Teammate Floyd Landis was also pleased with his performance: "I am even more happy since I didn't really think of finishing second at the start. It's widened my perspectives. From now on, my objectives will higher. What I am really happy with is my performance on Mount Ventoux. I hope to participate in the Tour de France".
Finally, third placed Christophe Moreau rode well in defence of his overall win last year. "I am very satisfied with my performance," he said. "The test lasted the whole week and I succeeded in spite of my past problems and my broken collarbone. I rediscovered confidence. I suffered on the Joux-Plane stage on Saturday. But so did Lance Armstrong. Each one of us went to their limits. It is much more positive."
