Beñat out as Suisse misery continues


Another Euskaltel rider abandoned the Tour de Suisse today. Beñat Albizuri threw in the towel, meaning there are only four Euskaltel riders left in the race. Though, those four are doing an excellent job. Today, Juanjo Oroz broke clear from the pack with 8 km remaining; a brave and impressive move from the new Euskaltel rider. Though, the pace in the pack was on, so he was caught with only a couple of km to go. But, still, a sign of strength from Juan José. The race eventually ended in a mass-sprint, with Robbie McEwen taking snacthing the win ahead of Bennati and Zabel. The remaining Euskaltel riders all finished safely inside the peloton.
