Tour de San Luis: Gaviria dashes breakaway's dreams

Just like he did in 2015, Fernando Gaviria found the finish line first in Villa Mercedes, Argentina, winning stage 2 of Tour de San Luis on Tuesday after 181.9km of racing.

It was a nail-biting finale, with Gaviria’s Etixx – Quick-Step squad leading a chase that caught a three-man breakaway with the finish line in sight. World champion Peter Sagan (Tinoff) finished second, and Elia Viviani (riding for the Italian national selection) rounded out the podium in third.

Juan Curuchet (Argentina), Ariel Sivori (Los Matanceros), Emiliano Ibarra (SEP San Juan), Israel Nuño (Inteja – MMR), Genki Yamamoto (Nippo – Vini Fantini), and Caio Godoy (Brazil) comprised a six-man group that escaped the peloton inside the first few minutes of the stage. They quickly built up sizable advantage that had already grown to around four minutes after only 20 kilometers.

The gap to an Etixx-led peloton stabilized at about five minutes, and it held there or thereabouts as the break and the bunch rolled on for two hours in oppressive heat, though the six-man break became a five-man break when Nuño fell off the pace with 50km to go.

Godoy attacked his breakaway companions with around 30km to go, splintering the group. Only Sivori and Yamamoto were able to respond and reattach themselves to Godoy’s wheel. At around the same time, the peloton whipped up the pace, quickly cutting into the break’s advantage—but Godoy, Sivori, and Yamamoto still enjoyed a gap of over two minutes coming into the final 10km.

Knowing that cooperation offered the best shot at success, the escapees settled in to pedaling in unison, working well together as they drew closer and closer to the finish. They took an advantage of one minute into the final five kilometers, a substantial enough lead that any one of them could have been forgiven for expecting to contest the win. They even made it onto the long, wide finishing straight with a small gap over their pursuers—but the bunch was not to be denied. With race leader Maximiliano Richeze at the head of the pack piloting Gaviria for a potential sprint, the peloton sailed past the trio inside the final kilometer.

Richeze’s lead out work left Gaviria perfectly positioned for the ensuing bunch kick. He launched his move inside the final 200 meters, and none of the other quick men came close to catching him.

“The team worked really hard,” Gaviria said. “Richeze and [Fabio] Sabatini, they were at their best, they were very strong, and they left me in the best position at the front.”

In last year’s edition of the race, Gaviria bested Mark Cavendish in Villa Mercedes, and Tuesday, he was the clear winner ahead of reigning world champion Peter Sagan—but he tried not to relish in those accomplishments too much after the race.

“In order to be at the same level [as Cavendish and Sagan], I need to win the same things they won,” he said. “Sagan is the world champion. Cavendish was. He also has won San Remo. They have won stages in the Tour de France and the Giro d’Italia and the Vuelta a España. I need to keep collecting more victories.”

With the time bonus earned at the line, Gaviria moved into the GC lead, two days into the seven-stage race. On Wednesday, the Tour de San Luis heads to hills for a 131km stage from Potrero de Los Funes to La Punta, but the day ends with a downhill to the finish town, so it may not be a race for pure climbers.
