2010 Tour de France Stage 3 Map

Thor Hushovd (Cervélo TestTeam), denied a chance to sprint for the victory in the crash-plagued second stage of the 2010 Tour de France, took his vengeance on Tuesday as he won the dreaded cobblestone stage.

Hushovd was in a small, select group that had pulled back Ryder Hesjedal (Garmin-Transitions) in the final kilometers of the tough 213km leg from Wanze to Arenberg Porte du Hainaut.

Hesjedal fought to the bitter end for the stage win, leading out the sprint — but he was no match for the Cervélo speedster, who took a well-deserved victory ahead of British champion Geraint Thomas (Team Sky) with world champion Cadel Evans (BMC Racing Team) third.

The big winner on the day, however, was Saxo Bank’s Fabian Cancellara, who reclaimed the yellow jersey from Quick Step’s Sylvain Chavanel despite working like a draft horse for teammate Andy Schleck. Chavanel had an absolutely terrible day on the pavé, taking at least two bike changes and finishing nearly four minutes behind the lead group.

Frank Schleck was the big loser, leaving the race with a broken collarbone.

No mountains — just cobblestones

Stage 3 included only one ranked ascent — the 1.4km Category 4 climb of the Côte de Bothey at 48km. What made it a hard day in the saddle was the inclusion of several sectors of pavé, starting 128km into the stage in Ormeignies.

The final 27.5km of the stage was a reverse of the middle portion of Paris-Roubaix, crossing four sections of cobblestones, with the last one ending just 7.7km before the finish.

Hushovd, still smarting from the peloton’s decision to declare a cease-fire at the end of Monday’s crash-filled stage 2, was very much looking forward to clocking in and getting down to work.

“The cobbles don’t scare me. I plan on being at the front and sprinting for the win today,” he said.

Christian Vande Velde out, Tyler Farrar soldiers on

A day on the cobbles is not exactly what the rest of the peloton needed or wanted after Monday’s debacle, which saw nearly half the peloton hit the deck. Christian Vande Velde (Garmin-Transitions) had to abandon the Tour after breaking two ribs and collecting a nasty slash to his left eye that required stitches. Teammate Tyler Farrar cracked his left wrist and sprained his left elbow, but started the stage, albeit sporting a brace and plenty of tape.

“It was his decision to start this morning, the injury he has is not in jeopardy in the long-term,” said team boss Jonathan Vaughters. “If he doesn’t want to continue, he doesn’t have to.”

Added Farrar: “I’m going to try to continue. No one wants to drop out of the Tour de France. I just need to focus on recovering. That’s about all I can do. I have a small fracture in my wrist. I hope it can heal during the race. It’s about the worst thing that could happen the day before riding the cobblestones. It’s a stage I was looking forward to, too. Fortunately we still have Johan (Van Summeren) and Martijn (Maaskant).”

Also taking the start was Rabobank’s Robert Gesink, who cracked a bone in his left arm during the pileup and was also braced and taped.

Ryder Hesjedal makes a break

The break du jour took off just 11km into the stage, and its composition seemed to suit the bunch. The escapees built a lead of more than four minutes by the 30km mark. That made Hesjedal the virtual leader of the Tour — he began the day in 27th place, at 3:43 behind yellow jersey Chavenel.

Hesjedal led the break over the Côte de Bothey, taking three points. Cummings and Auge took second and third for two points and one, respectively. Then the break went back to taking time on the bunch, led by Quick Step, which kept the leash at four to five minutes for many kilometers before gradually tugging the escapees back.

There was one bobble before the bunch even hit the first pavé — a guttered rider crashed, taking down several others, and David Le Lay from Ag2r came off worst, having to abandon the Tour with what appeared to be a broken collarbone.

Into the pavé

As the break hit the first 350-meter sector of cobbles at 128km its advantage had dwindled to 2:30, stripping Hesjedal of his virtual maillot jaune. Team RadioShack moved forward for that narrow bit of pavé, which was mobbed by spectators, but it was too short to prove eventful.

With 75km to go the gap was holding steady at 2:30 as Quick Step marshaled the pursuit with Cervélo TestTeam right behind.

Simon Gerrans (Team Sky) took a digger on a seam in the pavement and seemed dazed, briefly, but eventually remounted and began the lonely chase through the caravan back to the bunch, his face sporting some fresh scrapes to add to the injuries suffered in an earlier spill.

With 60km to race the break’s advantage was down to two minutes and Saxo and Cervélo were contending for control at the front, with Jens Voigt and Stuart O’Grady very much at the head of affairs.

As the bunch approached the second stretch of cobbles at 169km with 44km to go Saxo’s Voigt was drilling it at the front, stretching the peloton out in one long, desperate line. Chavanel was vigilant near the front, as were Hushovd, defending champion Alberto Contador (Astana), Lance Armstrong (RadioShack), and BMC’s Evans and George Hincapie.

Behind, Mark Cavendish (HTC-Columbia) had some sort of mechanical and was chasing with teammate Mark Renshaw. Ahead, the break’s advantage was steadily coming down, to 1:40.

The bunch starts taking back time

The break held just 80 seconds’ advantage as it hit the 1.2km stretch of cobbles, lined six deep with flag-waving fans. Hesjedal was on the front and went straight to the left-hand gutter to spare himself the pounding of the pavé.

Saxo had five riders on the front as the peloton closed in, raising a cloud of dust.

Hesjedal had taken a gap as the break hit the third section of cobbles, a 700-meter section at 173km. The others soon pulled him back, though, and Kluge took the lead as the break barreled along.

Thor Hushovd trades his national champs jersey for a green one.

Behind, the cobbles and an increasing wind were taking their toll on the peloton, which had split in two. A crash at the back of the bunch took down Damiano Cunego (Lampre) and Dave Zabriskie (Garmin-Transitions).

With 36km to go the break was entering France, clinging to just 51 minutes of its once-substantial lead. Cervélo had come to the front, taking over from Saxo, and Hushovd was sitting pretty in fifth wheel.

Four kilometers later Saxo was back in charge and the gap was just 38 seconds. The second half of the peloton was a half-minute behind.

Contador had a nervous moment as the next stretch of pavé approached, forced to bunny-hop onto a sidewalk and back into the street as he got crowded into the curb while trying to work his way forward.

Rolland led onto the next section of cobbles, but Cummings attacked, quickly taking a gap on his erstwhile break-mates. Behind, a crash took down Fränk Schleck (Saxo), Jani Brajkovic (RadioShack) and a number of other riders, with Schleck getting the worst of it.

This time Cancellara did not call a cease-fire — he was on the front and driving, with Andy Schleck, Thomas, Evans and Hushovd on his wheel. Armstrong and teammate Yaroslav Popvych were among the riders gapped during the confusion and chasing. Contador was in another group behind the Armstrong group.

Hesjedal goes it alone

Ahead, Hesjedal had taken the lead once again, pushing a huge gear as he pounded alone onto the fifth sector of pavé with 24km to race and an advantage of just over a half-minute.

The Cancellara pursuit was some 37 seconds back, with the Armstrong group trailing by a minute and the Contador group a further 40 seconds in arrears. That state of affairs didn’t last long — the defending champ fought his way back up to Armstrong on the cobbles with 16km to race.

Then Armstrong punctured his front tire, got a wheel change and began a frantic chase, led by Popovych. Maillot jaune Chavenel also punctured — he took a new bike and likewise launched a desperate pursuit.

Cancellara tried to roll off the front of the chase but Hushovd pulled him back.

Hesjedal took a lead of less than 30 seconds into the final sector of cobbles with 10km to go. Again he went straight to the left-hand gutter to spare himself the beating, riding through a tunnel of screaming fans.

Armstrong — nearly a minute behind Contador — took matters into his own hands on the cobbles, leaving Popo’ behind and forging ahead, trying to cut his losses. Meanwhile, the bad luck continued for Chavenel, who had to take a second spare bike and was more than three minutes behind.

The catch comes as Hesjedal falters

With 6.5km to go, the Cancellara chase finally swallowed up a fading Hesjedal as the Contador group closed to within 30 seconds of the leaders. Armstrong was making headway, too, latching onto some discards from the chasing peloton.

No matter. The lead group was fighting for the stage win and the overall lead with 2km to go. Cancellara was thinking he could retake the yellow jersey, Schleck was intent on taking time, and Hushovd was after the stage victory.

Hesjedal led it out on the right-hand side. Then Schleck had a go. But nobody was going to neutralize Hushovd this time — he took the win with Thomas second and Evans third.

Alexander Vinokourov led the first chase in, distancing his teammate Contador, who was clearly not pleased. The Armstrong group came in more than two minutes down, the American conceding a minute to his Spanish rival.

And the yellow jersey, Chavenel, finished nearly four minutes down — which returned Cancellara to the overall lead of the 97th Tour de France.

Up next

With only a single Cat. 4 climb, and no cobblestones, stage 4 is the easiest stage thus far. It starts in Cambrai, crossing World War I battlefields before heading into the Champagne region. The final 20km is flat and straight, and crosswinds could play a role.

The last two stages that have finished here ended in massive bunch sprints. Robbie McEwen, now racing for Katusha, won in 2002, and Djamolidin Abdujaparov won in 1991. Chances are high for a similar finish this year. More on stage 4.

Race notes

• Ag2r’s David Le Lay left the race about halfway in with an injury after crash. Christian Vande Velde did not start because of injuries from stage 2. Milram’s Niki Terpstra did not start due to illness.

Pinarello Prince Carbon Di2 Bike

The second-generation Prince was known as the Prince SL. Introduced in 2003, it pushed the alu/carbon hybridization to its absolute limit. Carbon was lighter, carbon was better at absorbing high-frequency vibration, carbon had a superior fatigue life. Pinarello helped lead the charge in 2005 with the introduction of their F4:13 carbon fiber frame, which they soon followed up with the Paris Carbon. Pinarello took the lessons they learned in developing these bikes and matched them up with recent developments in composites technology. The end result was a cost-is-no-object carbon thoroughbred so refined they couldn’t resist the temptation to give it their most beloved name: the Prince Carbon, the third-generation Prince they’ve designed to outstrip the greatness of the two generations that preceded it.

Like its name suggest, the Prince Carbon Di2 Bike flaunts a carbon fiber frame. The cables and wiring are strategically placed to give the bike a clean look. The battery is located below the water bottle cage on the downtube and is attached at an additional boss below the cage and the lower bottle boss. The control box sits under the handlebars on the brake cable and shows battery life left as well as the means to recalibrate the system if required. The bike can go over 1000 miles in single charge. One of the most high-tech, high-end modes of transport, it is truly a class apart.

The Prince Carbon is built from carbon fiber sourced strictly from Japanese textile giant Toray, a supplier to virtually every aerospace company worldwide.The Prince Carbon is built with an Onda FPX fork. Unlike the standard Onda fork, Pinarello built a second ‘wave’ into the ‘S’ shape of the FPX. This redesigned shaping serves to further reduce vibrations and increase comfort on any road surface. In addition, the FPX is also completely built from 50HM1K carbon to reduce weight. The Prince Carbon also comes with a Pinarello integrated headset and a Pinarello carbon fiber seatpost.

Weighing in at 16 lbs, Pinarello Prince Carbon Di2 Bike is priced at $15,900. A limited edition, with only 23 being brought to the US market, this bike is one exclusive creation. Currently only 15 are available, so you had better hurry to make your purchase.

Phil Ligget, Bob Stapleton and Paul Sherwen

Team HTC-Columbia brings a squad to this year’s Tour de France capable of winning stages of all types, team manager Bob Stapleton said Friday at a team press conference held before a packed house at the race’s headquarter in Rotterdam’s Ahoy Arena.

“We’re going to grab whatever success we can,” Stapleton said. “And I believe that flexibility gives us an edge.”

Though the team’s star sprinter Mark Cavendish won six stages last year, HTC’s message at this Tour — which was Webcast by new partner Skype — is that the team is not expecting a similar number of wins this year from the Manx Missile, and that the team brings riders other than Cavendish that are capable of winning stages.

“It’s a success to win just one stage,” Cavendish said. “We’re here to win. That’s not necessarily just to win sprints. We have a great team, and we can win all kinds of stages.”

Another rider the team will look to for stage wins is German Tony Martin, who recently won time trials at the Amgen Tour of California and the Tour of Switzerland. Martin is one of the only riders is expected to challenge world TT champion Fabian Cancellara during Saturday’s 9km prologue.

“It’s the first real highlight in this year’s Tour de France,” Martin said. “The prologue is a big goal. There’s pressure from my team, and pressure for myself. I expect a big result. I hope I can do something tomorrow.”

A high placing in the prologue would also land Martin in the white best young rider’s jersey, which he hopes to take from Andy Schleck’s shoulders this year.

As is customary for High Road team events, the press conference started off with a snazzy video featuring the success of the HTC men’s and women’s teams as well as highlighting its component sponsors. In what has also become a tradition with the team, television commentators Phil Liggett and Paul Sherwen emceed the event.

Cav’ on a quest

Before the riders were introduced, Stapleton announced new technology partnerships with Google and Skype, as well as a new Scott prototype bike, the Project F01, its most aerodynamic road bike to date.

Rolling out on an F01, Cavendish was the first rider to take the stage. After admitting that it wasn’t realistic to expect to win six stages again, Cavendish stressed that now that he’s proven he can make it to Paris, chasing the green points jersey would be a top priority.

In 2009 Cavendish swapped the points jersey with Thor Hushovd through the first 13 stages before he was relegated for an irregular sprint on stage 14, when race officials felt he’d ridden Hushovd into the barriers. That relegation, to the back of the field, cost Cavendish valuable points that prevented him from taking green on his first complete Tour.

In his quest for stage wins and the points jersey, Cavendish will again look to Mark Renshaw as his key lead-out man. Replacing George Hincapie as second-to-last on the lead-out train is Austrian Bernhard Eisel. Cavendish said he would first take aim at winning stages one, four and five.

“Mark wants to show people he’s as good as he says he is,” Stapleton said. “I think he feels like he has something to prove. And with Mark, that’s a good motivator.”

Cavendish said he’d recovered well from the high-speed crash at the Tour of Switzerland that many blamed him for causing. After Cavendish and Heinrich Haussler came together 50 meters from the line, Cavendish was first to hit the gorund, taking Haussler down with him. The resulting pile-up brought down several sprinters, and injuries from the crash prevented Haussler and Tom Boonen from starting the Tour.

Asked about a growing anti-Cavendish sentiment within the pro peloton that followed the crash, Cavendish had little to say.

“I’m here to ride the Tour, not look back on the past,” he said.

While Cavendish and Martin target stage wins, Australian Michael Rogers will look to improve on his best-ever ninth-place finish, in 2006. After dedicating himself solely to Cavendish at last year’s Tour, Rogers has enjoyed his best form in years this season, taking overall wins at Ruta del Sol and the Amgen Tour of California.

Rogers knows his first week of the Tour will be spent protecting Cavendish, but with Maxime Monfort, Kanstantin Sivtsov and fellow Aussie Adam Hansen set to help his cause, Rogers believes his time will come.

“It’s always a difficult thing to balance, having a team with goals in the sprints and green jersey and for the GC,” he said. “But I think we’ve got the mix about right. We’ve got the right people, the right attitude and we’re all good friends who want to ride hard for each other. Last year we had nine guys committed to the sprints, but this year we have to be a little bit smarter. For what we want to do here I think we brought the most balanced team we could have.”
