Kononenko prevails in rain and hail

Klemme defends yellow jersey

Roman Kononenko of the Ukraine prevailed in a stage dominated by rain, hail and crashes. Kononenko was in a four-man escape group, including Belgian Klaas Lodewyck, who was in the virtual yellow jersey during the escape. However, two crashes prevented Lodewyck from forcing a switch in the lead. Dominic Klemme held on to his 12-second margin over Frenchman Reni Cusin, despite also crashing in the final phase of the race.

Kononenko dropped his breakaway companions, Lodewyck, Erik Mohs (Continental Milram) and Henrik Albinus, with one lap of 17 kilometres remaining to solo to victory. Lodewyck hung on the longest, and even though he was back in the saddle after his two crashes quickly, he was not able to counter the decisive move by Kononenko.

Things started out slowly, with some riders trying to recover from the hilly day yesterday, while others were saving their strength for the upcoming time trial. Once it started raining, however, the action started and Kononenko, Lodewyck, Albinus and Mohs stormed away and over the KOM in Ebenheim at km 91, they held a lead of almost five minutes.

The peloton decided to chase in earnest in the thunderstorm, but still trailed by 1'25, going into the final lap. Kononenko made his move and finished 1'15 ahead of his chasers.

Australian Steven Robb also crashed and had to be brought to hospital with a fractured lower jaw.

The next stage is a 33-kilometre time trial in Bad Berka.
