Mark Cavendish (Columbia-Highroad) sprinted down the cobbled final metres of the Zeelaan ("sea road") in the breezy coastal of De Panne, Belgium, to beat Robbie McEwen (Katusha) just like the day before. Crashes marred the final, with race leader Filippo Pozzato (Katusha) going down four kilometres from the line.

"I am calm. Sunday is the important day," said Pozzato, who fell three kilometres from the neutral zone.

Pozzato sustained no major injuries, but decided to skip the afternoon's time trial. With this decision he joined Ronde favourites Tom Boonen (Quick Step), who already didn't start the morning stage) and Greg Van Avermaet (Silence-Lotto).

The latter lost his lead in the points' classification to Cavendish. He did the same as last year, won both possible sprint finishes.

"I am very happy that I did the double, like last year," he said. "Racing here in Belgium is great, the spectators are so enthusiastic."

Willems new GC leader

Willems took over the classification lead, but isn't sure yet about his chances. "I have to look at the general classification to see what the time differences are. I think [Rabobank's Joost] Posthuma will be very dangerous."

In 2008 Posthuma reversed a 27-second gap to a two-second win. Willems still has good chances, with a lead of 51 seconds over Posthuma. The closest rider is 45 seconds behind, Borut Bozic of Vacansoleil.

Dieter Capelle was in the break of the day, giving his Palmans-Cras team once again the most combative rider's award. After the peloton caught the escape, he was involved in the same crash that took out Pozzato.

Canadian Svein Tuft (Garmin-Slipstream) was also one of the crash victims. He crashed spectacularly into a road divider. He rode to the finish a few minutes later. "You have been getting through every day just fine and then they day I just wanted to be safe for the time trial and all of a sudden I nail the planter."

Tuft hurt his knee in the incident. "But I got off pretty good."

Escape

A group of nine riders went after less than ten kilometres: Bert De Backer (Skil-Shimano), Cappelle, Bjorn Coomans and Geert Omloop from Palmans-Cras, Oleg Chuzhda (Contentpolis-Ampo), Johan Coenen (Topsport Vlaanderen-Mercator), Filip Meirhaeghe (Landbouwkrediet-Colnago), Gerben Löwik (Vacansoleil) and Dominik Roels (Milram).

Omloop, who resisted hard, was realistic about the break's chances. "The peloton decides if you stay in the front or not. We tried as hard as we can, but we didn't succeed.

"Cavendish is the fastest in the world right now and with only three minutes it was impossible."

The peloton gobbled up the remnants of the break with six kilometres to go.
