Rabobank's Grischa Niermann tasted success again at the Regio Tour, almost ten years after he won the overall classification. Niermann set the best time of the day with 17'59 and was the only rider who could break the barrier of 18 minutes on a flat but technical course. Milram's Björn Schröder was only three seconds slower and took over the lead in the general classification. Former leader Manuel Vázquez produced a decent ride to finish 10th and to stay within seven seconds of the overall lead.

Niermann stormed to the finish so fast that the chaperone had a real hard time catching up. The chaperones are tasked to stay with a new overall leader until the end of the time trial or until a new best time is set. Once both the chaperone and Niermann had caught their breath, the Rabobank rider declared his satisfaction with the ride. "I had the feeling that after a long time I finally did a good time trial again. I used to do good time trials when I was in my mid-20's," the 32 year-old smiled.

Niermann had prepared the course well, saying he looked at the parcours twice before he went off at 16:11 local time. He also felt lucky with the weather, despite some threatening clouds and the occasional rain drops here and there. "When I rode, the streets were dry. The course was very twisty and it went over some smaller farm roads. There was some dirt, but since it was dry it wasn't a problem."

Schröder used a perfect time trial to take over the overall lead, clocking in at 18:02. Schröder was happy to switch his green sprinters jersey with the yellow leader's outfit. "This is my seventh Regio-Tour and my first time in yellow. It feels great," Schröder said. "The course suited me well. Beforehand, I had checked it out three times and so I knew which curves I could take all out. I rode absolutely without error, which was the key to my success. Tomorrow we will do absolutely everything to bring the overall title home with us."

U23 German champion Andreas Henig had a strong ride and finished second, only two seconds behind Niermann. Henig had said before the race that a top ten placing would be awesome.

Belarusian time trial champion Andrei Kunitski had a great performance and scored third place. A placing most would be happy with wasn't quite the desired result for Kunitski, though. "I wanted to win. The stage was very difficult, since there was a lot of curves. I prefer a straight route with some climbs. It was also a very short course."

One rider clearly disappointed was Colombian Miguel Angel Rubiano Chavez (Centri Della Calzatura-Partizan). His weak time trial saw him tumble from second to 15th. He made no excuses. "The stage was very hard. The time trial is not my specialty. I didn't prepare that very well. But I am hoping for tomorrow."

Rubiano is unlikely to make a comeback tomorrow, but with the top ten still within a good half minute, Milram will have its work cut out. The final stage does the traditional loop in the vineyards, with a tough loop to be completed seven times. The stage runs from Teningen to Vogtsburg over 166.7 kilometres.
