13.05.2007/ On the second stage of the Giro d’Italia Alessandro Petacchi sprinted on rank two. The bunch sprint after 205 kilometers was won by the Australian Robbie McEwen (Predictor Lotto), followed by Paolo Bettini (Quick Step). The Italian Danilo di Luca took over the pink jersey from his team-mate Enrico Gasparotto (Liquigas).

In the finale Team Milram excellently prepared the sprint for Alessandro Petacchi. 2.000 meters before the finish Christian Knees and his team-mates took over the lead and did the speed work in the peloton. They took their captain Petacchi to the 250 meter mark, then he only had to admit defeat to the fast Australian and the World Champion. "My team was perfect today, thanks to them although I didn't win," Alessandro Petacchi said after the race. "I reached the finale very tired because the bunch did the last climb very fast. My sprints are sometimes good and sometimes less good. But I hope to win one stage in this Giro," Petacchi continued.

The first stage was dominated by a top group of three. Pavel Brutt (Tinkoff), Mauro Facci (Quick Step) and Frederic Bessy (Cofidis). First five riders were in the break, on the only climb, however, the three escaped from the rest of the group and established a lead of 5:21 minutes. But their lead decreased in the finale. Eight kilometers to the finish Pavel Brutt, who broke away again 23 kilometers to the finish, was caught as well.

Ale-Jet was not the only sprinter who had trouble at the last climb. JJ Haedo and Graeme Brown were dropped at the final climb. "At the end we only had seven guys in the front group, when Matti Breschel and Haedo had to let go on the climb. In my opinion the stage tomorrow is much better for Haedo, and once he got left behind today he was told not to use up all his strength in order to get back up there. The Giro has only just started and he'll get his chance to go for a stage win at some point I'm sure,” said CSC sports director Alain Gallopin after the stage. Rabobank's sports director Adri Van Houwelingen said: "But, the climb was tougher than the Cauberg (Holland's most famous climb)," Van Houwelingen continued by saying: "After two hundred kilometers, that climb is difficult for every rider. More than half of the pack fell behind. It is not a disgrace that Graeme was among them. That was sort of expectable."

On the third stage on Monday the sprinter will have their next chance. Despite a wavy profile on the 181 kilometers from Barumini to Cagliari another bunch sprint is to be expected.
