Moos gets his win
Zülle keeps his cool in final mountain stage
By Jeff Jones

A very happy Alexandre Moos (Phonak) finally got his stage win in the Tour de Suisse, after finishing second yesterday to Francesco Casagrande. Today it was Casagrande's turn to finish second, although he did manage to catch Moos in the final kilometre, but was unable to stay with him in the uphill sprint in Verbier. In third place was Austrian Peter Luttenberger (Tacconi), who took some time back from race leader Alex Zülle, but not enough to displace him from the top.
In three of the four mountain stages, Moos and Casagrande have finished one place apart: In stage 3 they came in over 5 minutes down in 31st and 32nd place; in stage 4 Moos was part of the Swiss pursuit team that caught Nardello and Van Bon with 800m to go, eventually placing fourth; in stage 5 Moos and Casagrande broke away on the descent of the Sustenpass, with Casagrande outsprinting Moos in Meiringen; and in today's stage it was Casagrande who caught Moos with 1 km to go, but couldn't match the Swiss rider's determination to win the stage and dropped off with 500m to go.
For Moos it was a hard earned win after coming so close on a number of occasions - he also placed second in the Tour de Romandie prologue behind Rik Verbrugghe. The 29 year old won just one race in his career prior to this (Giro del Mendrisiotto 2001), although he is quite proficient in the cyclocross scene in winter.
How it unfolded
The final mountain stage from Interlaken to Verbier saw 111 riders take the start, with Alexandre Vinokourov (Telekom) not starting due to his crash in yesterday's stage. The main difficulty today was the steep finishing climb to Verbier, along with the third category climb of the Col du Pillon (km 87). Assisted by a tailwind, the riders averaged nearly 47 km/h in the first hour, with several groups forming at the front of the race and getting caught by the peloton.
On the approach to the Col du Pillon, a 16 man group managed to establish itself at the front. It contained Daniel Schnider (Phonak), Beat Zberg (Rabobank), Patrick Calcagni (Tacconi), Bobby Julich and Gian Matteo Fagnini (Telekom), Ivan Basso and Kim Kirchen (Fassa Bortolo), Santos Gonzales (Acqua&Sapone), Gabriele Missaglia (Lampre), Gerhard Trampusch and Miguel Martinez (Mapei), Marius Sabaliauskas (Saeco), Enrico Cassani (Domo), Frédéric Gabriel (Saint-Quentin Oktos), Tobias Steinhauser (Gerolsteiner) and Ruslan Ivanov (Alessio).
The break contained no real threats to Alex Zülle (Trampusch was 10th at 4'13), and his Coast team worked at the front of the peloton to limit their advantage to 2'20. After the descent of the Pillon, Beat Zberg attacked the leading group and got at most a 1'06 gap. At km 117, Enrico Cassani (Domo), Gian Matteo Fagnini (Telekom) and Tobias Steinhauser (Gerolsteiner) chased after him and caught him, forming a four man group some 30 seconds in front of the remaining 12, and 2'30 in front of the peloton.
Zberg was dropped as Cassani made a move off the front, but the Domo rider was recaught by Steinhauser and Fagnini. The three man leading group was 1'18 in front of the chase group, and 3'28 in front of the peloton with 45 km to go, but that was as much as they got as Lampre came to the front to help Team Coast chase.
Cassani, Fagnini and Steinhauser were finally caught before the Cat. 4 mountain sprint at Vollčges (km 163), won by Steve Zampieri (Tacconi) who has wrapped up the mountain competition now. Shortly afterwards, Zampieri's teammate Gianluca Bortolami rode ahead of the peloton to take the points in the Postfinance sprint, moving back into the lead in that competition. Then the climb started.
Christophe Rinero (Saint Quentin-Oktos) was the first to attack on the climb, followed by Giuseppe Guerini (Telekom) who caught and passed the former KOM champion in the Tour de France. Then Davide Rebellin (Gerolsteiner) and Alexandre Moos (Phonak) set off in pursuit of Guerini, with Moos succeeding in catching the Italian with 6 km to go, immediately attacking him to take the lead. Moos had a 10-15 second lead on the Zülle group, and he did not mean to give up easily, putting everything into his effort to get to the top of the climb.
The leading group contained only Zülle, Dufaux, Luttenberger, Di Grande, Wadecki, Fritsch, Totschnig and Valjavec, with Casagrande and Tonkov suffering to stay in contact. However, Casagrande was able to make it back to the group as they slowed with 4 km to go. Peter Luttenberger (6th @ 52 seconds) attacked and was not chased by Zülle, who was more intent on watching Wadecki and Dufaux. Casagrande saw his chance and bridged the gap to Luttenberger, and the pair started to close in on Moos.
 |
With 1 km to go, Casagrande had dropped Luttenberger and had caught Moos, who looked at him in dismay as he saw his victory chances diminish. But when Casagrande attacked with 800m to go, Moos was able to follow on the steep slope to the finish. Then the Swiss launched his own attack at 500m out, and Casagrande was forced to concede, eventually coming in 5 seconds behind Moos. Luttenberger finished third, 10 seconds in front of Wadecki and Zülle, who kept their cool and increased the pace at the end.
Tomorrow's stage of the Tour de Suisse from Martigny to Vevey has a flat run into the finish, and we should see the battle between sprinters Erik Zabel and Sven Teutenberg resumed in earnest.
