Pérez best placed rider for Euskaltel


Today`s first stage of the five-day Volta a la Comunitat Valenciana didn`t produce any noteworthy results or performances for Euskaltel. The 163 km-stage started and ended in Alzira, and was mainly flat. Gorka Verdugo tried to escape early on with former Euskaltel rider Egoi Martinez, but was brought back. The break thus went without any Euskaltel representative in it. Though, it all came down to a mass-sprint, where Rúben Pérez placed 14th, Aitor Hernandez 16th, Mikel Astarloza 19th, Ivan Velasco 29th, Samu Sánchez 49th, Joseba Zubeldia 71st and Jon Bru and Gorka Verdugo 88th and 89th respectively. All riders finished inside the bunch, and therefore Euskaltel lie 3rd in the team rankings.
