Tour de la Mirabell UCI 2.2
Colin Stüssi new leader of the mountain classification! Guerin and Thalmann hot for tomorrow’s royal stage
Attention, ready, go…. and away was Colin Stüssi today on the stage over 158 kilometers from Pont a Mousson to Lesmenils! His attack at the beginning of the race allowed him to take the day’s leading group with two competitors (Vojtech Repa / Equipo Pharma and Louis Coqueret / Leopard). He showed his class on the mountain classifications, thus securing the mountain jersey after the first stage.
Adria Moreno has to bury his ambitions in the overall classification due to a crash that was not his fault. Alexis Guerin loses a few seconds to winner Rory Townsend from Ireland (Team Canyon), but only due to the fact that he is still acting with some respect after his serious crash in the spring in the field. Thalmann crosses the finish line with the leaders.
Tomorrow it’s uphill!
The queen stage tomorrow over 177 kilometers and 4000 meters of altitude will be a different story for Guerin, Thalmann and Moreno. Here they want to annoy the overall leader of the Norwegian Pro Continental Team Uno-X Idar Andersen a little.
Today’s opening with the win of the mountain jersey by Colin Stüssi now makes you want more! Good luck guys!
