1ª Tour Britain: Greipel bate a su sucesor Ewan

Redacción / Ciclo 21

Andre Greipel ha demostrado que todavía tiene cuerda. El ‘Gorila’ se ha llevado al sprint el triunfo en la primera etapa del Tour of Britain, al superar al que será su recambio en el equipo belga en 2019, Caleb Ewan (Mitchelton-Scott), y Fernando Gaviria (Quick Step), quien una vez más lanzó el ataque antes de tiempo y le faltó fuelle para cruzar la meta en primer lugar.

Con una etapa de 175 kilómetros y previsible llegada al sprint se estrenaba el Tour of Britain, ante la expectación levantada por la presencia del último ganador del Tour, Geraint Thomas, y del tetracampeón de la ronda francesa, Chris Froome. La etapa, empero, estuvo protagonizada por el sexteto que rodó gran parte de la carrera en fuga: Dlamini (Dimension Data), Handley (Madison Genesis), Moses (JLT Condor), Townsend (Canyon Eisberg), Downey (Team Wiggins) y Bostock (Gran Bretaña).

El pelotón les dejó tranquilos hasta el tramo final, cuando el grupo de cabeza se fue desintegrando y el último superviviente, Townsend, resistió hasta que restaban 12 para el final.

Comenzaron los ataques, entre ellos el de Geraint Thomas (Sky). Se formó un grupo de cuatro en cabeza con Hivert (Direct Energie), ALaphilipe y Jungels (Quick Step) y Würz Schmidt (Katusha). Dos de Quick-Step en un grupo de cuatro: trabajó Alaphilippe para el ataque de Jungels, pero al luxemburgués le sobró el último kilómetro. El pelotón se echó encima y se lanzó el sprint. Gaviria atacó, pero Ewan se le echó encima y finalmente fue Greipel el que sorprendió a ambos.
