LIVE LIVE OF TODAY’S STAGE OF THE GIRO DELFINATO
Chronicle of yesterday’s stage – Presentation of today’s stage
Friends of OA Sport, cycling enthusiasts, good morning and welcome to Live LIVE text of the stage scheduled today for theAdriatica Ionica Race 2022! We have reached the penultimate round of the short Italian stage race.
Expected today 164,5 km who will lead the runners from Fano at the Conero Riviera, where the final goal is set; the course of this fraction is relatively rough, which could cause important jolts in terms of general classification.
After an overall quiet start, almost completely flat, a series of ups and downs could favor the day’s escape, but in all likelihood everything will be decided with the double ascent to the Poggio (1.3 km at 7.5%); special attention to be paid to the last brow, located just 6 km from the final goal.
Cycling, Chris Froome: “I’m finally fine, I want to be competitive again”
Given the final kilometers from an elevation point of view, the climbers should be able to establish themselves, with three runners to keep an eye on, having shown something more than their rivals, namely Filippo Zana, Natnael Tesfatsion and Lorenzo Fortunato. The departure is scheduled for 11:40: with ours LIVE LIVE you can fully follow today’s stage with constant updates so as not to really miss anything; see you later, do not miss it!
