And we return to a situation similar to the first day. Marc Coma has been intractable and starting from seventeenth position due to the problems he had yesterday with the oil radiator, he overtook all the riders who preceded him, claiming the stage victory. In this way, get back the twelve minutes you lost yesterday and add another five more tips.

And it is to these seventeen minutes that the second classified has arrived, Paul Ullevalseter with the same time as the Spaniard Jordi Viladoms, who after fourth place yesterday today shared the podium of the stage with Coma. Behind, David Frétigné, with his small Yamaha 450, consolidates in the first positions of the general, while Cyril Després, with a tire that has been deformed preventing him from exceeding sixty kilometers per hour, he finished more than an hour behind Marc in 44th position.

Verhoeven, very active the first two days, finished in thirteenth position, but a penalty of thirty-two minutes sinks it in the rankings, more than an hour from Marc Coma.

And today we highlight the pilot Gerard Farrés, who has set the fifth fastest time very close to the lead drivers. With fine handling, and benefiting from the starting position (he started in twenty-second), he was able to overtake enough riders and finish very close to the Frenchman David Casteu.
