It was Rabobank's day at the Sachsen Rundfahrt, as Sebastian Langeveld won the second stage and the leader's jersey, with Paul Martens finishing second on the day. Dirk Müller of Team Nutrixxion Sparkasse finished third.

The stage, run in heavy rain, finished with two laps of a 30 km circuit.

A five-rider strong group stayed away for over 100 km of the 194 km long stage. After they were caught, three riders including the previous day's winner, Andre Greipel (Columbia-HTC) took off. They were caught again, and Greipel fell back, so that he was not able to compete for the mass sprint.
