Stage 3 – 2007-05-04, Moudon – Charmey, 163 km
Although the course was really difficult, the favourites did not feel like attacking today. And thus, the escapees got their shot at winning a stage. After a win in the Tirreno Adriatico Шаблон:Ct cyclist Matteo Bono added another nice win to his palmares. He held of Japan's Beppu in the sprint. Beppu did score the first Pro Tour points ever for Japan though.

| 3 | Marco Pinotti | Шаблон:Flagu | Шаблон:Ct | + 2" | 1 pt. |
Stage 4 – 2007-05-05, Charmey – Pas de Morgins, 156 km
A long break by Шаблон:Ct rider Gorazd Štangelj finished with 8 kilometers to go. By then, Шаблон:Ct's Eddy Mazzoleni upped the pace. He thinned out the group until there were about 15 riders left. Attacks followed by José Ángel Gómez Marchante and Sylwester Szmyd. But the only real successful attack was by Spaniard Igor Antón. Dutch rider Thomas Dekker saw the danger and took over from Mazzoleni. As a result, only five riders could follow. American Шаблон:Ct cyclist Chris Horner attacked with 4 kilometers to go. Dekker replied instantly and with much pain and suffering also Frenchman John Gadret managed to follow. The trio caught up with Anton, who was happy he could sit in last wheel and follow. Although Dekker made the strongest impression and tried to get away twice, it was Anton who took the win. Dekker disputed the win due to a seemingly irregular sprint by Anton. But his protest was denied.
| Rider | Country | Team | Time | UCI ProTour points | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Igor Antón | Шаблон:Flagu | Шаблон:Ct | 4h 36' 55" | 3 pts. |
| 2 | Thomas Dekker | Шаблон:Flagu | Шаблон:Ct | s.t. | 2 pts. |
| 3 | Chris Horner | Шаблон:Flagu | Шаблон:Ct | s.t. | 1 pt. |
Stage 5 – 2007-05-06, Lausanne, 20 km ITT
In the finishing time trial around Lausanne Thomas Dekker didn't allow his competitors to have any hopes of winning the Tour de Romandie. Only Шаблон:Ct riders Paolo Savoldelli and Andrey Kashechkin stayed somewhat in the vicinity of Dekker. The young Dutch hope of winning the Tour de France in the future did a triple strike by winning the time trial, the final general classification and the points classification.
| Rider | Country | Team | Time | UCI ProTour points | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Thomas Dekker | Шаблон:Flagu | Шаблон:Ct | 26' 36" | 3 pts. |
