Richie Porte tog etapesejr og førertrøje

Den på papiret klart hårdeste etape i Volta ao Algarve blev i dag kørt over 195 kilometer. Det startede ellers rimelig blødt ud, men stigningerne blev flere og flere gennem etapen, og rytterne sluttede også på en stigning.

 

Team Saxo Bank viste sig endnu engang fra sin offensive side, da danske Kasper Klostergaard kørte med i et langt udbrud sammen med syv andre ryttere. Sky tog dog kontrollen over etapen, og sørgede for at det var klassementsrytterne der skulle køre om etapesejren på den afsluttende stigning op til mål. Blandt andet ofrede rytteren i førertrøjen, Edvald Boasson Hagen, sig i front af feltet, og sørgede for at Kasper Klostergaards forsøg blev neutraliseret.

 

På stigningen lagde Sky pres på med blandt andre Bradley Wiggins og Chris Froome, inden Richie Porte satte et flot angreb ind. Ingen formåede at følge ham, og dermed kunne australieren køre alene til mål og krydse stregen med armene hævet over hovedet og juble over sæsonens første sejr.

 

RadioShack-Nissan rytteren Tiago Machado kom i mål på andenpladsen, syv sekunder efter Richie Porte. Rui Costa kom ind på tredjepladsen sammen med Machado, men efter de to var der et hul ned til de næste ryttere, som kom ind 23 og 24 sekunder efter Porte. Bruno Pires blev bedste Saxo Bank rytter på en placering som nummer 12, en enkelt placering bedre end holdkammeraten Jesus Hernandez.

 

Richie Porte fører nu også løbet samlet. Han har 12 sekunder ned til Machado, mens Costa er yderligere to sekunder efter. Der er to etaper tilbage i det portugisiske løb, og da en af disse er en enkeltstart må Porte siges at være forholdsvis stor favorit til at tage den samlede sejr i løbet.
