Fernández takes stage as Molina hangs tough













Higinio Fernández of Lizarte secured his team a popular win on home roads in the Vuelta a Navarra's second and final stage on Sunday.

Yesterday's victor, Caja Rural's Antonio Molina, finished on the same time as Fernández and thus won the general classification.

Fourth across the line, Miguel Ángel Benito, grabbed the last place on the podium.

First-year Naturgas Energía rider Noel Gil came away with the 'Special sprints'-prize.
