No luck for Euskaltel in Burgos
It was another day of missed chances for Euskaltel in the Vuelta a Burgos today. The third stage saw a 7-man strong group break clear and create an unassailable lead, resulting in a sprint between these riders. No Euskaltel rider managed to join the break, so it was another case of "what could have been" for the Basques. The highest placed rider today was Iñaki in 21st place. All but Igor Antón finished inside the pack today. Igor came in a minute and eight seconds adrift, though I don't know why. Tomorrow's stage is, just like in Germany, an ITT. Though, I think Euskaltel's prospects are considerably better in this race. I'll be looking for Markel, first of all, to clock a good time. He's a good TTer, so he'll be up for it. I'm also expecting decent performance from Amets and Aitor; both are good against the clock when in form.
