Estêvão Rossi has what it takes


  The activity in the peloton was high in Robertsfors - Bygdsiljum. Several riders attempted to break away. When the peloton passed the first 12 km, Lars-Erik Rydberg (Team Specialized Cycling), Estêvão Rossi, (Gifflar World Team) and Riqui Contreras (Charrua Cycling Team) launched an attack. The peloton didn't take the attack too serious, which resulted in the trio fighting for the stage win. Estêvão Rossi won the sprint in the group, and became the happy winner of Robertsfors - Bygdsiljum. Riqui Contreras was second, and Lars-Erik Rydberg third.
I'm still in shock. When the attack started earlier today, I didn't expect to end up as winner, said the happy Gifflar World Team rider, Estêvão Rossi. Only at the very end, I realized that this could be my chance, and so it was.
The stage couldn't turn out any better than this. Estêvão Rossi did a perfect job today, said Mikkel , manager of Gifflar World Team, after the race.
