Stage 10 - September 16: Córdoba - Córdoba ITT, 36.5 km
Gonzalez heads Kelme 1-2, Sevilla in gold by 1 second
By Chris Henry

Today's time trial, the first individual test against the clock of this year's Vuelta, was held in steady rain and quite unpleasant conditions around the city of Córdoba. Few riders appeared willing to take big risks through the rain-slicked corners, and despite the relatively flat profile, early times were not particularly fast. The principal race favorites clocked good times over the 36.5km course, as Kelme's Aitor Gonzalez earned his second stage victory ahead of teammate and race leader Oscar Sevilla.
The first significant benchmark of the day was set by Phonak's Juan Carlos Dominguez, a noted time trialist and prologue winner in this year's Giro d'Italia. Dominguez remained on top of the leaderboard, fending off a strong ride from US Postal's Christian Vandevelde (who eventually finished 9th), until Antonio Tauler began the Kelme onslaught and set the fastest time ahead of Dominguez and Vandevelde.
 |
After struggling with his form throughout the first week of racing, Tauler's Kelme teammate Santiago Botero was unable to find the power which carried him to victory in the first time trial of this year's Tour de France. The Colombian cut his losses and finished in 149th position, 7'50" behind eventual winner Gonzalez.
Tauler's leading time eventually fell to a hard-charging David Millar (Cofidis), considered a favorite for the day. Millar sprinted to the line to set a new best time of 46'32". Millar's chances for the stage win were good, but the exceptionally strong Kelme team was not to be outdone. Aitor Gonzalez, second place overall and winner of stage 8 two days ago, stormed through the course in 45'32", averaging 48kmh in the unfavorable conditions.
 |
The final coup of the day came from race leader Oscar Sevilla, who produced an impressive ride that gave him second on the stage and kept him in gold by just 1" over Gonzalez. It was a formidable performance by Kelme, placing three riders in the top five, and retained first and second overall. Although Sevilla is the better climber of the two, Gonzalez's impressive riding could begin raise questions concerning team leadership, particularly with Gonzalez looking to change teams next season.
Among the other top contenders, Heras, Beloki, and Simoni all rode strongly in today's time trial, however with Heras now 1'42" behind Sevilla on GC, and Beloki further back at 2'04", the challenge has been surely set by Kelme.
