Samuel 4th in Fleche Wallonne

Euskaltel rode a good race in the Fleche Wallonne. During the race good old Gorka Verdugo did a great amount of work in front of the peloton keeping the distance with the two breakaways decent. Then when the favourites started attacking he also countered some of them, one time even ending up in a promising break together with Egoi Martinez who also rode a good race. At the end it came all down on Samuel and he didn't disappoint. He went to the top with the favourites, but he wasn't able to follow the attack of Evans first and then the final kick of Rebellin. He ended on a good 4th spot, promising for the upcoming Liege-Bastogne-Liege.
