Monster man Zabel outsprints the best in Alençon
Status quo continues in the peloton
By Tim Maloney, European editor in Alençon

Erik Zabel drove home Telekom's power wedge lead-out right up the middle of Rue de Bretagne in the Normandy town of Alençon for his 12th Tour de France stage win in a mano a mano drag race with Robbie McEwen (Lotto-Addeco) and Oscar Freire (Mapei-Quick Step), both of whom had beaten Zabel in the last five stages. To add insult to injury, McEwen had taken the lead in the competition for the sprinters' Maillot Vert earlier in the day on the stage's first sprint in Les Andelys, but Zabel's pure power sprint 86'ed the Aussie's chances for today.
A delighted Zabel told French TV in his post-race interview that "I'm really happy to win the stage and keep the green jersey. Both Oscar Freire and Robbie McEwen are very fast. In the past week in this Tour, McEwen seemed like the fastest sprinter so it was big win for me today."
Zabel's Telekom train worked to perfection, with Hondo and Fagnini setting up the man from Unna for a perfect win. After checking the videotape, UCI Chief Commissaire Josep Bochaca said that there was no protest over Fagnini's swervy move and the stage standings would remain the same, but Zabel's Telekom teammate was fined 200 Swiss francs for "incorrect manoeuvres that could have dangerous consequences in the sprint" and "dangerous attitude in raising the arms in the first positions of the sprint."
How it unfolded
 |
Cool and grey weather conditions prevailed for most of the long stage across La France Profonde; across the rolling green dairyland of the Departements of Eure and Orne. Plenty of attacks all day cranked the average speed in the first two hours to 43.5 km/h, but Lotto and Domo wouldn't let anything go.
Nothing stuck out front until after 100 km when a group of six riders surged ahead after hanging out in the lead. The powerful sextet included Steffen Wesemann (Telekom), Jacky Durand (FDJ.com), Paul van Hyfte (CSC-Tiscali), Emmanuel Magnien (Bonjour) Massimo Apollonio (Tacconi) and Constantino Zaballa (Kelme). They gained some time and after the second sprint in Saint Sulpice-sur-Risle with 66km to go, the break had almost gained 2'00. But once again Lotto and Credit Agricole, joined by ONCE and Mapei teams came to the fore and cut the lead in half by the third sprint in Courtomer.
With mega-tempo in the peloton, the escapees were finally pulled back into the fold with 10km to go and the sprinters' teams cranked it up a further notch into Alençon. Once again Zabel and his Telekom mannschaft took hold of the race in the final charge and this time, Zabel's final move was the good one.

Yellow Jersey Igor Gonzalez de Galdeano (ONCE-Eroski) spent a quiet day in the peloton, and with the next two stages providing a lead in to Monday's crucial time trial, there will be considerable pressure on both Gonzalez de Galdeano and Lance Armstrong. GdG and ONCE are in the driver's seat, as according to Spanish journalists in the know, ONCE team mastermind Manolo Saiz sees the situation as a unique opportunity for the team. Saiz and GdG know that Armstrong is probably unbeatable one on one, but they do believe that they can beat him as a team. Saiz decided that ONCE would focus on the Tour above all else this year, and the ambitious Torrelavegan is out to show how his ONCE team, just as in the team trial can overcome the American as a united force.
As for the three time Tour winner from Texas, Armstrong spent another quiet day at the office. "It was another fast day," said Lance. "There was a lot of wind but George (Hincapie) helped me a lot today."
Tomorrow is another romp through the deepest bocage of La France Profonde, with a 176 km stage from Bagnoles de l'Orne to Avrances. Rain showers, cool temps and overcast skies are expected until the weather clears at the finish along the English Channel coast.
