World champion Tony Martin takes stage victory as most general classification riders suffer
Chris Froome (Team Sky) extended his lead in the 2013 Tour de France over all of his general classification riders in the flat, 33km stage eleven time trial, between Avranches and Mont-Saint-Michel. The British rider, wearing the all-yellow skinsuit of race leader, completed the mostly flat course in a time of 36 minutes, 41 seconds, to finish just 12 seconds behind the stage winner, World time trial champion Tony Martin (Omega Pharma-Quick Step).
Martin's time of 36 minutes, 29 seconds, meant that the German Panzerwagen completed the course at an average speed of 54.271kph.
More significantly, however, Froome’s overall rivals lost considerable amounts of time to the British rider. Second place Alejandro Valverde (Movistar) conceded exactly two minutes to Froome, widening the gap between them to 3’25”, while third place Bauke Mollema (Belkin) lost 1’53”, extending his deficit to 3’37”.
Thomas De Gendt (Vacansoleil-DCM), who had started two minutes ahead of Martin - and led the stage for 59 seconds until the World champion finished - held on to take third place on the stage, 1’01” behind.
“To be honest, I'd almost given up hope of the stage win,” said Martin afterwards. “It was starting to look very disappointing when I saw Chris beat my times at the intermediate check. I nearly started to cry. I couldn't believe it. I was more-or-less sure about the win as I had a good advantage to guys like ‘Chava' [Sy;vain Chavanel - ed] and [Michal] Kwiatkowski who really strong time trial riders so I expected that Froome might get to within 30 seconds or something like that but not beating me at the intermediates.
“Now I'm really happy and maybe it's nicer to win this way.”
Martin almost abandoned the Tour after being one of the principle victims of the stage one crash that saw him suffer severe road rash on his back and - reportedly - temporarily lose consciousness. His victory on stage eleven would appear to vindicate the decision to continue.
“Luckily some of my skin is back and I can sleep on my back again,” he said. “I'm more-or-less recovered... for sure there are still some wounds that are open but we riders are used to this so it's no problem any more.
“When I heard that I could continue the Tour de France I knew I wouldn't be 100 per cent there for the team time trial but I always expect to have a good performance today and I'm really happy now that I could do that. At the end of the day I'm the lucky guy and I think I deserve a little bit of luck.”
The early running was made by former Canadian champion Svein Tuft (Orica-GreenEdge), who was the second rider to start but the first to finish. Tuft’s time was good enough to keep him in the lead for just over two hours, until De Gendt, and then Martin went faster. The Canadian was eventually to slip to sixth place, as Richie Porte (Team Sky) - apparently recovered from his jour sans in the Pyrénées - took fourth place, with Polish road champion Michal Kwiatkowski (Omega Pharma-Quick Step) fifth.
Kwiatkowski’s margin of victory over Nairo Quintana (Movistar) meant that the Polish rider took back the lead in the white jersey classification.
Second to start, first to finish, as Svein Tuft sets the bar high early on
Dmitriy Muravyev (Astana) was the first rider to start but, with former Canadian time trial champion Svein Tuft (Orica-GreenEdge) starting just two minutes behind him, he was not expected to be the first to finish. Sure enough, at the 9.5km checkpoint, Tuft had already taken 54 seconds out of the Kazakh rider, and he passed him as they reached the 22km checkpoint almost side by side.
Tuft went on to finish in a time of 38’04”, while Muravyev came in 3’48” behind him - in 41’52 - managing to hold off Netherlands champion Lieuwe Westra (Vacansoleil-DCM) who had started four minutes behind him. Westra’s time of 39’06” was good enough for second place, but still 1’02” behind the time set by Tuft.
A fast starting Lars Boom (Belkin) flew through the 9.5km checkpoint fractions of a second faster than Tuft had but, by the time he got to the 22km point, he had slipped into third place, 48 seconds down.
The next rider to threaten Boom’s 9.5km time was Jérémy Roy (FDJ.fr), who passed through eight seconds down, just a fraction slower than Westra had been. Just a few minutes later Thomas De Gendt (Vacansoleil-DCM) went even closer, only one second behind Boom, but the next rider through was Martin, and the World champion’s time of 10’21” was 22 seconds faster.
De Gendt was getting faster on the second section of the course, and passed through the 22km point 39 seconds quicker than Tuft. Martin was faster still, however, lowering the best time at that point to 24’42”, taking 39 seconds out of the Belgian he was chasing.
At the finish line De Gendt took the provisional lead as he crossed in 37’30”, to go 34 seconds faster than Tuft. The Vacansoleil-DCM rider barely had enough time to get off his bike, however, as Martin crossed the line just 59 seconds after he did, to go 1’01” faster.
Sagan chases points as the other sprinters opt for an easy day
Peter Sagan (Cannondale) was 35 seconds down at the first checkpoint in provisional 13th place, and the Slovakian road champion - wearing the all-green skinsuit of the leader of the points classification - was getting faster. By the 22km point, he was up to seventh place, 1’31” down, and he managed to hold that place all the way to the finish.
Sagan’s time of 38’47”, 2’18” behind Martin was less of an issue to the Slovakian than the fact that seventh place on the stage would earn him nine points towards his green jersey defence; should he manage to hold on to that place.
A rider going the other way was World road race champion Philippe Gilbert (BMC Racing), who was another to make a fast start, and passed through the 9.5km point just 25 seconds slower than Martin. The former Belgian time trial champion was not able to sustain his effort, however, and was 1’48” behind at the 22km point, and had lost 2’55” as he reached the finish.
Sagan’s hopes of a decent points finish on the stage took a knock soon afterwards, as Tom Dumoulin (Argos-Shimano) slotted into provisional fifth place, 1’45” behind Martin. Sagan dropped from seventh to eighth, dropping his provisional points earned on the day to eight.
Tejay van Garderen (BMC Racing) - like teammate Gilbert - had been a very fast starter, and went through the 9.5km checkpoint in the provisional second best time, just 18 seconds slower than Martin. The American, who started the Tour with hopes of a high overall finish, faded on the rest of the course, however, and crossed the line in 39’48”, losing a total of 3’19”.
Richie Porte (Team Sky), having also slipped out of overall contention in the Pyrénées, went through the first checkpoint just 25 seconds behind Martin, and had only dropped a further 29 seconds in the second part of the course. At 54 seconds down on Martin, the Australian was in fourth place, and he was even faster in the final section of the course to cross the line in third, just 1’21” behind.
Sylvain Chavanel, riding in the colours of French time trial champion blasted through the 9.5km checkpoint just seven seconds slower than Omega Pharma-Quick Step teammate Martin, but had slipped to fifth place at the 22km point, in fifth. Sprinting down the finishing straight, la Machine crossed the line just two seconds behind Tuft’s time, to hold his fifth place on the stage and push Roy down to sixth.
Sagan was now down to tenth, and scoring just six points, with several fast riders to come.
Michal Kwiatkowski became the latest Omega Pharma-Quick Step rider to cover the first 9.5km quickly, as he blasted through the first time check just 15 seconds slower than Martin. He too faded a little by the 22km point, and was 55 seconds behind as he passed through the checkpoint, and was a fraction of a second behind Chavanel. The Polish road champion, who was second in the young rider classification, had taken 38 seconds out of white jersey incumbent Nairo Quintana (Movistar) after just 9.5km, and was closing in on the competition lead.
The big guns start to fire as Tony Martin finally comes under attack
Alberto Contador (Saxo-Tinkoff) was tenth at the first check, conceding just 25 seconds to Martin, but was two seconds ahead of teammate Romain Kreuziger, who started the day equal on time overall. Laurens ten Dam (Belkin) then went through 38 seconds behind Martin, but teammate Bauke Molleme - who sat in third place overall - was ten seconds quicker, losing just 28 seconds. Second overall Alejandro Valverde then went through in 10’45”, losing just 24 seconds to Martin, and gaining on his rivals.
Kwiatkowski had managed to pace his ride a little better than Chavanel, and held on to his pace in the third part of the course. The Pole crossed the line in provisional fourth place, 1’31” down. The battle for the white jersey was swinging his way, as Quintana passed through the 22km check 2’21” down on Martin, and was now a virtual three seconds behind overall.
Contador, meanwhile, went through 22km 1’24” behind, but shortly afterwards, Froome went through 9.5km in 10’20”, one second faster than Martin. Kreuziger was still two seconds behind his teammate, going through 1’26” down.
Ten Dam had dropped to 20th place at the second checkpoint, now conceding 1’37” down, while Mollema was faring a little better and had dropped just 1’23”.
Quintana crossed the line 3’28” behind Martin, which meant that he had conceded 1’58” to Kwiatkowski and would lose his white jersey. Contador then finished 2’15” down, in a time of 38’44”. Froome had blasted through the second checkpoint in 24’40”, however, and was now two seconds faster than Martin on the stage.
Kreuziger, who had shadowed teammate Contador’s time all the way around the course, crossed the line three seconds behind him to go into provisional twelfth. Ten Dam then finished in provisional 19th place, 2’32” behind Martin, while Mollema was still travelling faster than his teammate and crossed the line in 38’34”, losing 2’05”, and going into provisional tenth.
Valverde had faded slightly in the final kilometres and crossed the line in 38’41”, conceding 2’12”. Froome was not far behind the Movistar rider, however, and sprinted around the final corners, but had lost time in the final, exposed kilometres and finished in a time of 36’41”; he lost the stage by 12 seconds, but had taken big time out of his overall rivals.
Sagan ended the stage in 17th place, sadly missing out on the points that his efforts arguably deserved.
