Tour de France. Mc Ewen sfreccia sul traguardo di Canterbury

| 08/07/2007 | 00:00
Al Giro se n'era andato con una vittoria in carniere (12 in carriera), e la convinzione che al Tour sarebbe stata dura con un Alessandro Petacchi (al momento del ritiro 3 a 1 per lo spezzino, ndr) ritrovato e in stato di grazia. Senza il più forte velocista del mondo, fermato dalla Procura del Coni per quelle tracce di salbutamolo riscontrare nelle sue urine nella tappa di Pinerolo, per l'australiano il gioco è senza ombra di dubbio più semplice, tanto che oggi nel primo sprint ha letteralmente annichilito i suoi avversari con uno sprint semplicemente regale. L'australiano Robbie McEwen ha vinto in volata la prima tappa del Tour de France, 203 chilometri da Londra a Canterbury. Il corridore della Predictor-Lotto ha preceduto sul traguardo il norvegese Thor Hushovd (Credit Agricole) e il belga Tom Boonen (Quick Step), cogliendo così la sua vittoria numero sette in questa stagione (108 in carriera), la dodicesima al Tour de France. Non cambia nulla in classifica generale, dove rimane al comando lo svizzero Fabian Cancellara (Csc), vincitore del cronoprologo di ieri. Domani seconda tappa: da Dunkerque a Gand, 168 km. Si arriva a casa di Tom Boonen, oggi sonoramente battuto, e desideroso di riprendersi quello che oggi ha lasciato per strada. ORDINE D'ARRIVO 1. MC EWEN Robbie 46 PREDICTOR - LOTTO 04:39:01 2.
