L’Allemande Trixi Worrack (Nürnberger-Versicherung) a dépossédé Deidre Demet-Barry (T Mobile) du maillot jaune, vendredi, au Tour cycliste de l’Aude. Détentrice du maillot de meneuse durant trois étapes au début du tour, Worrack a repris la tête du classement provisoire grâce au travail de ses coéquipières dans la deuxième étape de la journée. Lyne Bessette (équipe canadienne) occupe toujours le cinquième rang du classement, mais elle se retrouve désormais à 2 minutes 3 secondes de l’Allemande.

La meneuse de l’équipe canadienne a terminé 11e de la deuxième étape du jour, 45 kilomètres entre Conques sur Orbiel et Pic de Nore, à 1 minute 6 secondes de la gagnante Worrack. À noter que les 25 derniers kilomètres de l’épreuve étaient en montée.

En matinée, à l’étape de 45 kilomètres de Conques sur Orbiel, Mette Fisher Andreasen (S.A.T.S.) s’est imposée. Amy Moore a été la meilleure Canadienne avec une cinquième place, tandis que Bessette a terminé dans le peloton principal au 26e rang.

« J’ai eu une moyenne journée, mais ce n’est pas plus grave que ça. Erinne (Willock) qui met la main sur le maillot de meilleure jeune, c’est le point positif de la journée pour l’équipe canadienne », a analysé Bessette. « Les Nürnberger Versicherung ont donné le ton dès le début de la course (la deuxième) et je me suis accrochée en essayant de me protéger le plus possible. »

« Nous savions que les attaques partiraient rapidement. Nous avons atteint notre objectif en ayant quelqu’un de l’équipe dans l’échappée », a poursuivi l’athlète de Knowton à propos de la première étape du jour.

La journée de samedi s’annoncera ardue pour le peloton : une étape de 132 kilomètres, comprenant six cols dont deux de première catégorie, sera au programme de l’avant-dernière étape.
