Cavendish wins stage 11

2009 TdF, stage 11: In and out of a Central France chateau.

Stage 11 was an easygoing affair for most of the peloton, with the temperature hovering around 73 degrees and an early break allowing the bunch to ride tempo all day. Ag2r’s Rinaldo Nocentini enjoyed another day in the yellow jersey.

There was an early shake-up on GC, but it had nothing to do with the day’s racing. Instead, the Tour de France officials simply negated the 15-second gap from the prior day’s stage to a number of riders — most notably Astana’s Levi Leipheimer and Garmin’s Bradley Wiggins — that was created after the field split at the end right near the finish. As a result, Leipheimer dropped from fourth on GC to fifth and Wiggins dropped from fifth to seventh. However, the Tour jury decided to void the 15-second gap from the first 52 riders to the rest of the peloton, thus reinstating the original general classification as it stood before stage 10 began.

At stage 11 rolled out, a number of early break attempts came to nothing. A spectator-caused crash at 15km took down Garmin’s Christian Vande Velde and Quick Step’s Sébastien Rosseler. In an unusual move, race officials neutralized the peloton until the crashed riders regained the bunch.

The day’s main breakaway went after Johan Vansummeren (Silence-Lotto) and Marcin Sapa (Lampre) went clear of the peloton before the first intermediate sprint at 26.5km. With most of the intermediate points accounted, the green jersey contenders didn’t bother to contest for third. At the beginning of the day, Hushovd held a narrow lead over Cavendish, with 147 points to 141 points.

The breakaway pair stayed clear for most of the day, building up a maximum lead of four and a half minutes.

With the men out front, Ag2r and Columbia drove the peloton in defense of the yellow jersey and in anticipation of the stage win, respectively. With race radios back in play, and a peloton full of seasoned professionals well-versed in making the late catch, the two breakaway riders were scooped up at 5km to go.

As the catch was made, the peloton quickly fanned out across the road, but Columbia quickly stretched it back out, driving the field. With 2km to go, Milram crowded its way up alongside Columbia’s train.

At 1km to go, Milram took the front — temporarily. Then Hincapie took his familiar position at the front, drilling the pace and the peloton flew around the tight barricaded corners. With about 500m to go, Renshaw took over, with Cavendish, Husvhod and Farrar in singlefile behind.

When Cavendish jumped, Hushvod tried to surge, but was overtaken by a flying Farrar who passed the Norwegian and pulled almost alongside Cavendish. But sprint finishes are not horsehoes or hand grenades, and almost doesn’t get you a win. Instead, it was the Mark Cavendish show, once again.

Heading into Thursday’s stage, the general classification at the top of the leaderboard remains unchanged.
