The race is held on a hilly parcours and there are some good puncheurs at the start to fight for the win.
No break today and no major contenders dropped in the first climbs so far, but with less than 3 km to go Dainese is out on front solo with Konychev in the chase. The peloton is still close tough.
It’s still the same picture in the final climb, Dainese is already entering the final km.
But a big shift from Frigo brings the peloton back and with 500 m to go Formolo is launching his sprint.
But the veteran is already done with 200 m to go and no it’s between Bagioli and Velasco.
And in the end it’s an easy win for Bagioli!
Congratulations to Bagioli!
