Tour de France 2009 - Stage 13 Results - Heinrich Haussler Solos to Stage Win as GC goes Unchanged

Germany’s Heinrich Haussler won the 13th stage of this year’s Tour de France with Spain’s Amets Txurruka second. Haussler came in more than four minutes ahead of Txurruka and France’s Brice Feillu, who took third.

Rinaldo Nocentini comfortably retained the overall leader’s yellow jersey as no attacks took place on the five climbs of the day. Thor Hushovd takes back the green jersey though.

Haussler had moved with six other riders after only three kilometres and he dropped them one by one to finish on his own after a 197-km ride in the rain and cold.

Astana rider Levi Leipheimer did no start the stage due to a broken wrist. Leipheimer was 1 of 4 Astana riders in the top 10 of the GC.

Cervelo TestTeam welcomes Rotor Bike Components as a new team sponsor

Cervelo TestTeam is pleased to announce that Rotor Bike Components has become a sponsor of the team.

Rotor Bike Components will supply both the men and women’s Cervelo TestTeams with Q-Rings (oval chainrings), Agilis Evo cranks and Sabb bottom brackets.

“We are very pleased to be part of this new project,” said Ignacio Estellis, Rotor CEO. “In signing our 2-year agreement Rotor commits to apply its engineering to developing exciting new products, technologies and manufacturing methods, to provide the Cervelo TestTeam with the most advanced cycling components.”

PRODUCT INFORMATION:

Q-Rings poised to become the next must have product in cycling, Q-Rings increase your power by maximizing use of the efficient zones of the pedalling stroke and by reducing the intensity of the dead spot zones. By maximizing the leg’s strengths and compensating for its weaknesses, they offer easier climbing, faster acceleration and a smoother pedalling, with reduced joint and tendon loadings due to better muscle strain distribution. Their revolutionary shape and well defined orientation adjustment options ensure serious race day advantages, further underlined by their multiple UCI world champion titles.

Gerrans, Reimer, Cuesta, Florencio and Rasch sign with Cervélo TestTeam

Cervélo TestTeam is pleased to announce the signing of Simon Gerrans of Australia, Martin Reimer of Germany, Inigio Cuesta and Xavier Florencio of Spain as well as Gabriel Rasch of Norway.

Simon Gerrans, a former swimmer, runner and motorcycle racer, only turned to cycling by chance (and in hindsight, good fortune) after injuring his knee when he was seventeen in the Victorian motocross titles. A pro cyclist since 2003, the twenty-eight-year old Australian won a stage victory at the 2008 Tour de France, as well as a third place stage finish during the 2005 edition of the Tour. Gerrans rode this past season for Team Credit Agricole.

Martin Reimer is one of the major young talents in Germany. The twenty-one-year-old native of Cottbus won the 2008 German U23-national road race title. In 2008 he rode for the Continental Team LKT Team-Brandenburg.
