T-Mobiles unge tyske talent, Gerald Ciolek, kunne i dag fejre sin første sæsonsejr, da han vandt tredje tape af Niedersachsen-Rundfahrt. I dagens massespurt lykkedes det ham altså at besejre så stærke sprintere som Team Milram duoen, Erik Zabel og Alessandro Petacchi.
Mens Erik Zabel blev toer efter Ciolek, kom australske
Graeme Brown i mål som nummer tre. Alessandro Petacchi, som altså i dag måtte se sin sejrsrække brudt, forsvarede med en fjerdeplads sin samlede føring i det tyske etapeløb. Den 33-årige italiener har vundet syv sejre i træk, heraf også de to første etaper i Niedersachsen-Rundfahrt, ville i dag hjælpe holdkammeraten, Zabel, til sejr, men der kom altså en ung T-Mobile rytter i
vejen for den plan, da den 160,9 km lange etape skulle afgøres.
