"Hard to get water in the last 40km, and that was all I wanted."
Those were the words of Astana's Daniil Fominykh after stage three at the Tour of Turkey. Fominykh and his teammates worked in hot, dry weather to chase a breakaway in the hills of Elmali before the uphill finish on the Queen stage at the Tour of Turkey.
Dmitriy Gruzdev rode at the front of the peloton with Fominykh, Valerio Agnoli, Ruslan Tleubayev and Arman Kamyshev to take the pressure off Miguel Lopez and Bakhtiyar Kozhatayev ahead of the final 20km and the Elmali summit. Lopez and Kozhatayev finished in the Top-20 behind stage winner Davide Rebellin of Italy.
Maxat Ayazbayev suffered severe muscle cramps and stomach trouble in the extreme heat and did not finish the stage.
