"There was a skid in the last 800 metres and I found myself a little behind."
Those were the words of Astana's Alexey Lutsenko after stage six at Tirreno-Adriatico.
Lutsenko was piloted in the last kilometres by his teammate Andrei Grivko and finished tenth in the sprint won by Peter Sagan of Slovakia.
Alessandro Vanotti led a long breakaway of nearly 150km under a heavy rain and a temperature of just five degrees.
In the overall classification Vincenzo Nibali is now eighteenth, 2:23 behind race leader Nairo Quintana of Colombia.
