Contador tallies up another win
Paris-Nice winner Alberto Contador (Discovery Channel) racked up a win on the slopes of the Navacerrada, taking stage four of the Vuelta a Castilla y Leon ahead of Koldo Gil (Saunier Duval). The day began with an eight-man break including Alan Perez (Euskaltel-Euskadi), Eloy Teruel (Grupo Nicolás Mateos), Juan José Abril (Viña Magna-Cropu), Juan Jose Oroz (Orbea) Didac Ortega (Benfica) and Gustavo Dominguez (Karpin-Galicia) which gained a maximum of 4'30. But with a long, gradual uphill parcours and a category one finishing climb, the move was doomed as the Caisse d'Epargne team of yellow jersey holder Vladimir Karpets worked to bring down the gap.
As the road tilted up, Oroz made a move to stay clear of the peloton, and was joined by Luis Pérez (Andalucía-Cajasur), who spent most of stage three in the break, but it was clear that the Discovery Channel team had other things in mind than letting the pair stay clear. With the same method used to propel Contador to the overall win in Paris-Nice, the Discovery team upped the pace, reeled in the breakaway, and proceeded to crack Vladimir Karpets with 4km to go.
From a much reduced lead group, Saunier Duval's Koldo Gil launched an attack, and was closely followed by Contador and Caisse d'Epargne's David Lopez, but it would be Gil and Contador battling it out for the win, attacking each other repeatedly until the final kilometre. In the end, Contador proved too strong for Gil, and took the sprint with ease and moved himself into the overall lead.
Friday's final stage from El Burgo de Osma to Soria features two categorised climbs, one category one, followed by a category two, and then a long downhill run-in to the finish.
