After a number of attacks in the final 5 kilometers, Michael Albasini (Orica-GreenEdge) won today's fourth stage of Paris-Nice. Andrew Talansky (Garmin-Sharp) kept his GC rivals under control and kept the leader's jersey.

The fourth stage of Paris-Nice was a demanding challenge with no less than 7 categorized climbs on the 199,5 km route. The tough course took its toll and drastically reduced the front group. In the end a group of 40 riders had to decide the stage, and Michael Albasini once again proved his fast finishing speed to outsprint his rivals.

In the final kilometers of the stage it was, however, in no way obvious that the stage would end in a sprint. Attacks went all over the road, and especially Sylvain Chavanel (OmegaPharma-QuickStep) showed enormous aggressiveness.

The day's early escape consisted of Thomas Voeckler (Team Europcar) - who was on a mission after losing his GC hopes yesterday - Johann Tschopp (IAM), Gianni Meersman (OmegaPharma-QuickStep), Hubert Dupont (Ag2r-La Mondiale), Romain Sicard (Euskaltel) and Warren Barguil (Team Argos-Shimano). They built up a gap which topped at 3.40 before they were gradually brought back.

On the penultimate climb with 23 km remaining, Voeckler launched an attack, and he was joined by Dupont. Meersman and Tschopp fought to get back, and they finally succeeded. Their effort was, however, in vain, and the break was brought back with 15 km to go.

Many had expected the last climb to be the big battleground, but that ended up not being the case. The only real attack was launched with one kilometer to the top from Maxime Monfort (Radioshack-Leopard). He was, however, brought back immediately. The furious tempo on the climb had reduced the group dramatically, and only around 40 riders remained in contention.

At the top, Nicolas Roche (Team Saxo-Tinkoff) tried to escape, and that was the launch pad for an aggressive final to the race where attacks came thick and fast. In the end, nobody had any success, and it ended up in a sprint where Albasini secured his first victory since his triumph on the penultimate stage of last year's Tour de Suisse.

Andrew Talansky finished safely in the group and kept his leader's jersey. He faces a huge challenge tomorrow when the race continues with its queen stage finishing atop Montagne de Lure - the climb known as the little sister of Mount Ventoux.
