Euskaltel again protagonists

Iban Mayoz and Alan Perez both impressed greatly today, as they were both part of the stage`s main breakaway. Though, sadly, the break was neutralized. After that, a small group, including winner Colom, got away. Aitor Hernandez tried to follow them, but in the end had to throw in the towel. Nonetheless, Aitor, Jorge Azanza, Beñat Albizuri and Antton Luengo came in with the main chaising group, 1:13 behind the winner. Beñat was the highest placed Euskaltel rider, coming home in 19th place. Iban Mayoz and Markel Irizar both came in 5:47 adrift, while Aketza Peña was 6:51 behind, and Joseba Zubeldia and Alan Perez 10:09. Antton is the highest placed Euskaltel rider on the GC, lying 17th.
