Young Australo-German Heinrich Haussler, who won stage 19 of this year's Vuelta a España, continued his impressive performances amongst the top pros at yesterday's Züri Metzgete in Switzerland. Finishing seventh behind the Italian winner Paolo bettini, the 21 year-old neo pro put his unknown name up in the results lists once again.
"An incredible performance," said Gerolsteiner team manager Hans-Michael Holczer after the race. "The kid is sensational." Haussler, who jumped in a breakaway with his teammate Andrea Moletta about half way through the 204 kilometer event, managed to hold on as it disintegrated and come into the finish 3.39 minutes after Bettini.
