Rubén 17th in Dauphiné


Rubén Pérez, who will make his debut in the Tour de France this year, came in 17th on the first regular stage of the Dauphiné Libéré. The stage was tailor-made for the sprinters, so it all came down to a mad dash to the line. Heinrich Haussler of Gerolsteiner took the win, with Rubén coming home 17th. Rubén was very active inside the last kilometres, trying to find the perfect position, and eventually got the wheel of Paco Wrolich. Though, Rubén faded a bit towards the end and gave up. But, still, no bad achievement! The rest of the team finished comfortably inside the pack.

Yeah, especially igor I think. Perhaps Mikel as well, he seems to be in good shape.
