16.05.2008/ On Saturday the Vuelta a Columbia started with a 8.4 kilometres long prologue. US Continental team Rock Racing dominated the prologue with a fantastic win for Santiago Botero but the defending champ of the Columbian stage race abandoned on stage 2.

Prologue
 
Rock Racing sent shockwaves through the field at the 58th Vuelta a Colombia by sweeping the top four places in Saturday’s prologue.

Rock Racing’s Santiago Botero won the 5.2-mile (8.4 km) individual time trial in nine minutes and 53 seconds, leading teammates Victor Hugo Peña (seven seconds behind), Oscar Sevilla and Tyler Hamilton (both 14 seconds back).

José Castelblanco, the 2006 winner of the Vuelta a Colombia, finished fifth, 15 seconds behind.

On a day with 105-degree heat and 75 percent humidity, Botero averaged 31.3 miles an hour over a crowd-packed course that ran through the city Barrancabermeja, a port and oil-refining center on the Magdalena River in northeastern Columbia. Botero, the race’s defending champion, also won the prologue last year.

“At the halfway point, Santiago was eight seconds down on Victor, but from there on he took a couple of fast corners and on the final straightaway of 3.5kms he turned it on,” Rock Racing Team Director Mariano Friedrick said.

Peña, who lives about an hour’s drive away from Saturday’s start in the city of Piedecuesta, said he was happy to be back racing in the Vuelta a Colombia for the first time in 10 years.

Fifteen teams – including 12 from Colombia – are participating in the 14-stage race that covers 1,237 miles (1991 km) over 15 days. Widely considered to be one of the most challenging stage races in the world because of its high-altitude race finishes, past Vuelta a Colombia champions include Tour de France stage winners Fabio Parra (1981, 1992), Luis Herrera (1984-86, 1988) and Oliverio Rincón (1989).

In addition to Botero, Peña, Sevilla and Hamilton, Rock Racing’s seven-rider squad includes Americans Jeremiah Wiscovitch, Adam Switters and Sergio Hernandez.

Stage 1

Rock Racing’s Santiago may have conceded the race leader’s red jersey Sunday at the Vuelta a Colombia, but not his confidence for overall victory.

On a day when the race finished in the hometown of Rock Racing’s Victor Hugo Peña, a 19-man breakaway went up the road with every major team represented in the move – including Rock Racing’s Sergio Hernandez. The escapees built an eight-minute advantage before the peloton responded.

“It wasn’t up to us to defend anything because one, this race has just started, and second we are outnumbered in this race,” Rock Racing Team Director Mariano Friedrick said. “ So we ended up looking after the main contenders in the field and their teams to take the initiative.”

The toll of a 15-mile climb near the end of the 91.2-mile (146 km) race, combined with the high heat and humidty, helped bring the break back into the fold. In the end, Arthur Garcia (Loteria del Tachira) out-sprinted Rafael Montiel (Colombia es Pasion Coldeportes). Rock Racing’s Oscar Sevilla, who was third overall coming into the stage, finished eighth, 59 seconds behind. Botero came in with a group 1:28 behind.

The result means that Sevilla is now Rock Racing’s best-placed rider in sixth overall, 48 seconds behind Garcia. Botero slides to 12th overall, 63 seconds behind, while Peña also remains within striking distance of the race lead in 25th, 1:24 behind.

Friedrick said it was a special moment when Monday’s race reached Peña’s hometown.

“They received him with arms wide open and a warm welcome,” Friedrick said. “He was extremely happy for the stage to have finished in his hometown.”

Stage 2

While Rock Racing’s Oscar Sevilla narrowly missed out on a victory on Stage 2 Monday at the Vuelta a Colombia, his teammate, Santiago Botero, retired from the race, citing fatigue and a desire to do well at the Olympics.

Botero had claimed victory in Saturday’s prologue time trial, leading Rock Racing to a 1-2-3-4 sweep. But the race’s defending champion is looking ahead to an even bigger goal – success in the Olympic Games in Beijing later this year.
 
“Santiago has been training super hard since November of last year to win the Tour of California – a race he unfortunately was not even allowed to start,” Rock Racing Team Director Mariano Friedrick said. “Fortunately, he had enough fuel in his tank to win Redlands and do a very good job at the Tour de Georgia. Ultimately, he knew he didn't have the form to win this Vuelta and mentally he needs a rest.”
 
While Botero withdrew at the 37-mile mark (60 km), Monday’s stage was well-suited to an on-form Sevilla, who finished third in the prologue. With temperatures soaring over the century mark and high humidity, the peloton was reduced to fewer than 40 riders by the time the final 25-mile (40 km) climb began. Rock Racing was well-represented with both Sevilla and Victor Hugo Peña – who finished second in the prologue.
 
“Oscar looked relaxed and composed at all times, and under no circumstances was he in trouble,” Friedrick said.
 
Sevilla bided his time on the final ascent, covering several attacks in the closing kilometers before making a go of it on his won with 300 meters left, only to be passed by Jhon Freddy García (UNE) just before the finish line.
 
The result did not significantly change the overall standings, though, and Sevilla remains in sixth place, 42 seconds behind overall leader Carlos Ospina (GW-Shimano-EPM).

Stage 3

The success of a solo breakaway on Stage 3 of the Vuelta a Colombia cost Rock Racing’s Oscar Sevilla one place in the overall standings, but the Spaniard remains less than a minute off the overall lead.

 
Sanitago Ojeda (Lottery Boyacá) won Tuesday’s 105.3-mile (169.5 km) race from Socorro to Tunja by three minutes and 30 seconds over Juan Pablo Wilches (Multirepuestos Bosa). Sevilla finished third in the field sprint of about 70 riders for fifth place on the stage, 3:43 behind Ojeda. He remains 42 seconds behind, in seventh place overall.
 
“Oscar is looking very strong and his confidence keeps growing,” Rock Racing Team Director Mariano Friedrick said.
 
Ojeda and two other breakaway riders led by more than five minutes at one point during Tuesday’s race, but the team of overall leader Carlos Ospina (GW-Shimano-EPM) worked together with Rock Racing and the Une Racing Team to reduce the gap. Ojeda soloed away from the two others to climb into second overall, four seconds behind Ospina.
 
“The plan was to keep Oscar safe at all times and have him just follow the main contenders,” Friedrick said. “The climbs weren’t that long, but we just kept going up the whole time.”
 
Sevilla’s Rock Racing teammates Victor Hugo Peña (59th overall, 5:26 behind) and Tyler Hamilton (80th overall, 20:35 behind) assisted with the chase to keep the breakaway in check.
 
Rock Racing started the 14-stage, 15-day race with seven riders but is down to four following Tuesday’s withdrawal of Adam Switters and Jeremiah Wiscovitch. Rock Racing’s Sergio Hernandez is 127th overall, 53:56 behind.
