Vuelta stage 7: Petacchi loses sprint

Van Heeswijk came from a long way out. Looked like Petacchi didn't make
the final big group, which must've been a surprise to the Fassa train cuz
they'd already started leading out. Van Bon looked like he was setting up
Steels, but Steels was third behind Van Heeswijk. Zabel made a late move
to take 2nd.

Van Heeswijk flatted at about 15km. He used a lot of energy to catch back on
and move to the front during Bettini's attack. Then he put his nose into the
wind from a long way out. Very impressive all around.
