A punto estuvo Juanjo Lobato de sorprender a Marcel Kittel -ganador de la jornada precedente, pero sí lo hizo con el resto de participantes. De ser cuarto en la segunda etapa, el andaluz del Movistar ascendió a la segunda plaza, solo superado por el gigante alemán del Giant. La jornada más complicada del Dubai Tour 2014: 162 km entre la capital emiratí y Hatta tras una serie de repechos en los últimos compases pusieron a prueba las fuerzas de todos los corredores, aunque no evitó el sprint final.
La labor protectora de los Sanz, Castroviejo o Dowsett durante todo el día desembocó en un fuerte arreón conjunto en la aproximación al doble ascenso -con breves rampas superiores al 10%- para alcanzar al último superviviente de la fuga del día, el moldavo Pliuschin (SKD), y en el posterior ataque de Adriano Malori, que junto a una respuesta posterior de Valverde dejó el grupo cabecero en escasas treinta unidades, como informa el equipo telefónico.
Mientras Ion Izagirre, con otro ataque concluido el último descenso, mantenía el ritmo vivo y provocaba el desorden en el grupo, sus compañeros se centraban en llevar tranquilo a un Juanjo Lobato que progresó con facilidad entre el grupo llegado el último kilómetro y esprintó codo a codo con los grandes para terminar doblando la rodilla ante el alemán Kittel (GIA).
Valverde, 7º en meta, y Jesús Herrada, cerrando el top-ten, completaron la actuación de un Movistar Team que conserva a Adriano Malori en el octavo lugar de la general -todavía comandada por Phinney (BMC)– y que tendrá su última opción mañana sábado a los pies del rascacielos Burj Khalifa, punto conclusivo de una jornada de 122 km a cubrir íntegramente en terreno urbano.
Por lo que respecta a la clasificación general, el campeón de España contrarreloj, Jonathan Castroviejo, asciende un puesto hasta el decimosexto y a 45 segundos del estadounindense del BMC.
Puntos TOP Ciclo 21: Juanjo Lobato, 10 (8 2º etapa + 2 mejor español etapa 2.1)
