It was a perfect day for Pollack, who had already won the first intermediate sprint. "My legs were fantastic. I knew
it would be difficult for my rivals when we work well in the finale and my position is good. All pieces fell into its place.
So good that I was able to ride the sprint from the front. I have to thank my teammates, who worked hard to achieve the best
possible result for us. And thats a first place," a happy Pollack said after his first victory in a Volksbank jersey.
Pollack also took over the lead in the sprint classification. "Before the start of this tour the blue [points, editor]
jersey was my goal, I have made a big step towards to this goal. I will not give it away voluntarily."
Volksbank's team
manager Thomas Kofler congratulated: "Olaf did a killer sprint. We needed this victory like you need a bit of bread.
I am happy for the riders, who trained hard and now finally got something back."
CSC was satisfied as well with todays stage. Matti Breschel took a fifth place at todays stage, where captain Karsten
Kroon is still third overall thanks to his third place in the first stage.
"Matti tried to go for the sprint and took
a nice fifth place. And now we'll concentrate on Lars Bak and Karsten in the overall standings, but we don't have all that
many riders in the remainder of the race because some of them are leaving for the States tomorrow. Luckily Stuart O'Grady
is getting better and better so we should still be able to make our mark here," said Team CSC sports director Scott Sunderland.
Tomorrows third stage will start in Donauwörth and finshes after 190 kilometres in Würzburg.
