As is often the way on flat stages of the Giro d’Italia: nothing happens for most of the day – then everything happens at the death. And so it proved on the first road stage of the race with a crash 4km from the finish holding up sprinters and GC riders alike before Italy’s Jonathan Milan (Bahrain Victorious) won the reduced bunch sprint to secure a maiden win on his debut.
Sonny Colbrelli, who announced his retirement from professional cycling in October last year after an unstable cardiac arrhythmia, has spoken to Eurosport in a special interview. The former Bahrain Victorious rider announced his retirement after an unstable cardiac arrhythmia resulted in his collapse in what was a very scary incident at the finish of Stage 1 of the Volta a Catalunya that prompted huge concern from the entire cycling community. Ad Colbrelli's collapse sent shockwaves through the sport as he crossed the finish line in second place behind Michael Matthews.
In Wollongong on Sunday Remco Evenepoel became the youngest World Champion in 29 years and the first rider to win a monument, a grand tour and the world road race since Bernard Hinault in 1980. The 22 year-old did it first by getting team-mates in the break, then slipping away from the peloton to join them in the final third of the race, before going on the attack himself with exactly two laps left. Ad He rode on for ten kilometres in the company of Alexey Lutsenko, but going solo on the penultimate ascent of Mount Keira.
SYDNEY :Remco Evenepoel concluded a magnificent season with a solo breakaway to win the world road race title on Sunday, adding the rainbow jersey to his triumphs in the Vuelta a Espana and the Liege–Bastogne–Liege monument classic.
Switzerland powered to team time trial gold in a dominant display, with Italy taking silver and Australia the bronze. But that was only part of the story, the favourites Netherlands having a shocker of a day with a mechanical for Bauke Mollema and a crash for Annemiek van Vleuten absolutely wrecking their chances of a podium. While the plaudits must go to the Swiss team of Mauro Schmid, Stefan Kung, Stefan Bissegger, Elisa Chabbey, Marlen Reusser, Nicole Koller for an incredibly professional display in what was an event full of drama, Van Vleuten’s unbelievable crash was by far and away the biggest talking point.
SYDNEY : Australian cyclist Caleb Ewan said he was heartbroken to have missed out on his country's team for the road World Championships on home soil in Wollongong next month.
Matthews went solo from the day's breakaway with 51 kilometres to go, and after being caught by a trio of chasers he attacked again on the final ascent, a brutal 3-km effort at 10.2%.
