Luxembourg champion Fränk Schleck (Leopard Trek) was disappointed following today's Flèche Wallonne, saying he waited too long to respond to the winning attack by Philippe Gilbert (Omega Pharma-Lotto) on the final part of the Mur de Huy.

Schleck could only manage a 7th place finish, six seconds behind Gilbert at the line, but he still has high hopes for Sunday's Liège - Bastogne - Liège.
