Francesco Casagrande (Fassa Bortolo) has recorded his first success since his ignomious departure from the Giro d'Italia, beating Swiss Phonak rider Alexandre Moos in a two man sprint on the Meiringen runway. The pair had broken away from the favourites group on the descent of the Sustenpass with 30 km to go, successfully resisting the efforts of the nine riders behind them to win by 15 seconds. Third place went to Poland's Piotr Wadecki (Domo-Farm Frites), who took a few bonus seconds to move closer to race leader Alex Zülle.

While Zülle finished fifth on the stage, he had problems on the Sustenpass when Dufaux, Wadecki and Vinokourov attacked, leaving Zülle and his group to try and close the gap. Zülle did so by the top with some impressive riding, and was out of danger for the rest of the stage. Not so Alexandre Vinokourov, who crashed on the descent and hurt himself quite badly. He managed to finish the stage but he dropped from second on GC to 30th.

How it unfolded

118 riders set out from Meiringen airport in sunny, 30 plus degree conditions. They were facing three tough climbs of over 2000m: the Grimselpass (2165m, km 39), Furkapass (2429m, km 55.5) and Sustenpass (2215m, km 105.2). The finish in Meiringen was 44 kilometres from the top of the Sustenpass.

After a very slow first hour (23 km/h), an eight man group established itself in the lead on the Grimsel. Kim Kirchen (Fassa Bortolo), Thorvald Veneberg (Rabobank), Christian Charriere, Marco Fertonani and Reto Bergmann (Phonak), Bobby Julich (Telekom), Juan Manuel Garate (Lampre), and Steve Zampieri (Tacconi). Zampieri took the points at the top of the climb, increasing his lead in the mountains competition.

On the Furkapass, Zülle's Coast team set a strong tempo to try and peg the gap to the leaders, which they managed to do but wore themselves out in the process. By the top of the Furkapass, only Alex Zülle was left in a group of around 20 riders which had caught all but three of the leaders. At the summit, Reto Bergmann and Juan Manuel Garate had a small gap to Kim Kirchen, and 30 seconds to the Zülle group, which they increased to 1'35 on the descent before Garate fell after colliding with a motorbike.

Bergmann was left on his own in the lead, with Garate and Kirchen following at 1 minute at the base of the Sustenpass, and Zülle's group at 2'27. The race began in earnest on the Sustenpass, with the chasing group setting a brutal pace at the bottom to quickly reel in Kirchen and Garate, with the persistent Bergmann holding off until 6 km to the top.

Francesco Casagrande certainly had good legs today, attacking three times on the Sustenpass but unable to get clear of the rapidly shrinking leading group. Most of the top GC riders were there: Zülle, Vinokourov, Dufaux, Wadecki, Tonkov, Totschnig, Di Grande, Luttenberger, Moos, Casagrande, Valjavec, Fritsch and Guerini, but one by one they dropped off as the mountain took its toll.

Shortly after Bergmann was caught and passed, his teammate Alexandre Moos accelerated, and quickly got a 20 second gap. Then came a very important move: Alexandre Vinokourov jumped away with Laurent Dufaux on his wheel. Shortly after, Wadecki bridged up and the second, third and fourth placed riders on GC had left Zülle stranded. But the race leader didn't crack, nor did he panic. Together with Casagrande they limited the damage to around 15 seconds, before Zülle upped the tempo with 1 km to go to catch the leading four at the top.

In the scheme of things it didn't matter too much, as the leaders regrouped on the descent to form an 12 man group. However Moos wasn't finished yet, and put in another attack on the descent with 35 km to go to establish a handy lead. There was no immediate reaction, but there was some drama when Alexandre Vinokourov crashed on a turn and fell quite heavily into a rocky ditch on the side of the road. He looked ready to abandon, but managed to get back on his bike eventually to finish the stage, his hopes of a high finish in the Tour de Suisse dashed.

Casagrande attacked from the leading group to catch Moos with 28 km to go, and the pair began to work together while the chasing group couldn't make up their collective minds what to do. It was good for Zülle, as Casagrande and Moos were over 5 minutes behind him on GC, but would take the bonus seconds for the first two places on the stage.

That's how it remained for the rest of the stage, with Casagrande and Moos getting as much as 30 seconds on the chasers, who did not commit themselves to closing the gap. As they headed into Meiringen airport, Moos took the lead for the last time. He motioned for Casagrande to come through but the Italian was having none of it, gluing himself to the Swiss rider's wheel as they turned onto the runway. Moos led out from 400m, and was quickly passed by Casagrande who claimed the stage win, pumping his fists with excitement. Moos settled for second, while Wadecki led Dufaux and Zülle home for third.

Tomorrow's sixth stage from Interlaken to Verbier (177 km) will be the final mountain test in the Tour de Suisse. The 1546m Col du Pillon is located halfway through the stage, but the finishing climb to Verbier Station will again test Zülle's legs. It rises 700 metres in 9.6 kilometres, and is rated as a category 2 climb.
