As Karpets was one of the five riders who finished together, the result moved him into seventh in the overall standings.[6] Karpets moved up to fifth after stage 6, when sprinters Matthew Goss and André Greipel, who had been ahead of him, were unable to finish with the peloton due to the hilly parcours.[7] The next day shuffled the standings more. Karpets lost 1'18" in the difficult, muddy stage in Tuscany, but moved up to fourth as other riders were worse off and lost even more time.[8] In the Giro's first mountain stage, concluding with the climb up Monte Terminillo, Petrov climbed with the Giro's elite and was able to slip out the front of the group on the ascent since he did not pose an overall threat. He took fourth on the stage, seven seconds ahead of the rest of the peloton and 49 seconds back of the solo winner. Karpets was dropped on the climb and lost over a minute, falling back to seventh overall.[9] The squad came very close again to stage wins the next two days. Pozzato made a late split in the field in stage 9 and finished second in the group sprint, just behind Goss and ahead of the Giro's only double stage winner Tyler Farrar.[10] In stage 10, Julian Dean's leadout for Farrar caused a split within the final 500 m (1,600 ft) of the stage. McEwen was one of just eight other riders to finish with the same time as stage winner Farrar, taking fourth on the day.[11]
Stage 11 was a very important one. More than fifty riders formed the morning's escape. Petrov, Horrach, and Caruso (who, by this point, was well out of overall contention, sitting in 51st place) made the selection. This group got a maximum time advantage over the peloton of 20 minutes. As the finish line neared, they stopped working as a cohesive group, with the prospective stage win in mind. Ten remained together into the stage's final kilometer, when Petrov rode past an early-attacking Dario Cataldo to take the win. The time gap back to the Giro's overall favorites was still nearly 13 minutes, leading to a massive re-shuffling of the overall standings.[12] The next day, another late split in the field took place. With a field sprint seemingly shaping up, a group of ten consisting mostly of Giro favorites got away. Pozzato made this split and was the strongest sprinter present, taking the victory. Pozzato was the first Italian stage winner at the Giro, and it was his first career Giro stage win.[13] The next day, Klimov made a winning breakaway, and finished ninth in the sprint. During this stage, Karpets launched a solo move against the peloton and stayed out in front of them between the breakaway and the main field for most of the stage. He took back two minutes on the Giro elite, moving up five places in the overall classification with the move.[14] The squad was then quiet for the remainder of the Giro, with Petrov's tenth place in the climbing time trial to Plan de Corones the closest they came to another victory.[15] Karpets finished the race in 14th place, 25'21" behind Giro champion Ivan Basso. Caruso was 46th, over two hours down. The squad finished ninth in the Trofeo Fast Team standings and 11th in the Trofeo Super Team.[16]
Tour de France
Team Katusha entered the Tour de France with a squad led by Karpets. In stage 2, both Karpets and McEwen were caught up in the crashes on the Col du Stockeu in Spa, with McEwen needing medical attention to a deep wound on his elbow.[17] The veteran Aussie stayed in the race, figuring in the mass sprint finishes to the next three stages, though finishing only as high as fourth.[18][19][20] In stage 9, to Saint-Jean-de-Maurienne, Rodríguez finished ninth, moving into the same place in the overall standings. He gained time against a small handful of overall contenders, but he also lost two minutes to Andy Schleck and Alberto Contador, and sat five minutes behind them in the general classification.[21]
In stage 12, Alexander Vinokourov seemed out in front on the stage-concluding climb to Mende and poised for a stage win when Contador attacked the chase group behind his teammate. Rodríguez came with him, and the two easily rode past Vinokourov. As Contador had driven their little breakaway, Rodríguez was much fresher in the final sprint, and took the stage win. The ten seconds they took on the group of contenders moved Rodríguez up to eighth overall.[22] After Schleck and Contador engaged in a bizarre trackstand on the Port de Pailhères in stage 14, Rodríguez, who had been trailing them on the climb, caught up and finished together with them and two others, for fifth on the day.[23] In the Tour's queen stage, stage 17 finishing at the Col du Tourmalet, Rodríguez finished third, just over a minute behind Schleck and Contador at the head of the race. He therefore took time out of every other contender in the race, and moved up in the overall standings again, to seventh.[24] The stage 19 time trial provided for the final changes to the overall standings. The day on which it was run involved a drastic change in wind direction during the time trial, which is part of the reason Rodríguez was 154th on the day, losing ten minutes to stage winner Fabian Cancellara. He also lost considerable time to other members of the top ten in the overall standings, and slipped back to eighth, which was his final placing the next day. The squad finished 18th in the teams classification.[25][26]
