El sprinter alemán André Greipel puso por fin la rúbrica en su estreno en la escuadra francesa Arkea Samsic para hacerse con la victoria en la sexta etapa de la ronda gabonesa 2.1 UCI África Tour. El gorila de Rostock, como se le conoce, suma a su palmarés la 156ª victoria, la primera en el continente africano y la última para completar su currículum en los cinco continentes. En la general todo sigue igual con el italiano Niccolo Bonifazio como líder a falta de la etapa del domingo dónde presumiblemente se proclame vencedor final.
Histórico, se convierte por derecho propio en el ciclista en activo con más victorias conseguidas y en el segundo, tras Daryl Impey, en conquistar competiciones UCI en todos los continentes. Europa, ha sido el lugar más prolífico para el alemán. Oceanía, con una veintena de parciales en el Tour Down Under. Asia, tanto en Omán como Qatar. América, en Filadelfia. Y desde hoy también, África.
André Greipel por fin
La etapa se caracterizó por una escapada de tres componentes desde el principio con inclusión del etíope Temesgen Buru (Etiopía), el italiano Marco Frapporti (Androni Giocattoli-Sidermec) y el sudafricano Jayde Julius (ProTouch), con un margen permitido hasta los 3′ como máxima diferencia. Tanto los franceses del Direct Énergie, protegiendo los intereses del líder Bonifazio, como los del Team Arkéa Samsic se hicieron cargo del trabajo, con la neutralización realizada a tan solo 3 km de la línea de meta.
Lanzados en la volata fue Greipel, con 36 años, finalmente quien sería capaz de poner fin a la racha inicial en la que se resistía su primera victoria enrolado en el equipo francés. El segundo lugar fue para Youcef Reguigui (Argelia) y tercero Lorrenzo Manzin (Vital Concept-B & B Hotels). Séptimo llegaría Niccolò Bonifazio que mañana tendrá la posibilidad de cerrar la carrera gabonesa, con los 140 km de Nkko a Libreville, vestido con el maillot amarillo.
