Niki Østergaard avancerer i Kroatien

nullDagens etape i Istarsko proljece - Istrian Spring Trophy blev præget af flere udbrudsforsøg, hvor Perutnina Ptuj holdet mere eller mindre forsøgte at holde det hele samlet. Projektet lykkedes mere eller mindre, da det var et forholdsvis stort felt som var samlet, da de sidste fem kilometer - som gik let opad - skulle afgøre etapens vinder.

I denne gruppe havde Glud & Marstrand Horsens-LRØ Rådgivning holdet Niki Østergaard, mens det norske hold, Team Sparebanken Vest-Ridley, var repræsenteret af Michael Stevenson.

Ingen af de to ryttere kunne dog følge med de forreste og kom i mål som nummer 12 og 21, 13 sekunder efter etapens vinder Blaz Furdi (Sava).

I den samlede stilling avancerede begge skandinaviske ryttere, så Michael Stevenson nu ligger nummer 15, mens Niki Østergaard er nummer 27. De er henholdsvis 26 og 37 sekunder efter dagens etapevinder Blaz Furdi. Glud & Marstrand Horsens-LRØ Rådgivning havde også lidt succes ved Christian Moberg, da han vandt dagens eneste bjergspurt.

I morgen venter så løbets kongeetape, som slutter med en tre kilometer lang stigning op til Montovun. I topform ville det være en afslutning som passer Niki Østergaard perfekt, spørgsmålet er så, om han allerede er i så god form så tidligt på sæsonen.
