Dall’11 maggio al 2 giugno andrà in scena il Giro d’Italia 2019: si tratta della 102^ edizione della Corsa Rosa, alla ricerca del successore nell’albo d’oro di Chris Froome. Tanti i big presenti alla partenza da Bologna: scopriamo insieme i 196 corridori in rappresentanza di 22 squadre (18 WorldTour, più le 4 Professional Androni-Sidermec, Bardiani-Csf, Nippo-Vini Fantini-Faizané e Israel Cycling Academy).
Chi si contenderà la Maglia Rosa? Gli occhi degli italiani sono puntati su Vincenzo Nibali (Bahrain Merida), ma sono tante le star internazionali: Tom Dumoulin (Sunweb) è probabilmente il favorito numero uno, ma grande attesa è anche per il colombiano Miguel Angel Lopez (Astana), per il vincitore dell’ultima Vuelta Simon Yates (Mitchelton Scott), per Mikel Landa (Movistar) e per Primoz Roglic (Jumbo-Visma). Clicca qui per un’analisi approfondita dei favoriti per la vittoria finale.
Tra le ruote veloci, si delinea una sfida affascinante tra Elia Viviani (Deceuninck Quick Step) e Fernando Gaviria (UAE Team Emirates), ma attenzione anche ad Arnaud Démare (Groupama-FDJ) e Caleb Ewan (Lotto Soudal). Tra gli altri azzurri, occhio a Jakub Mareczko (CCC), Matteo Moschetti (Trek-Segafredo), Giacomo Nizzolo (Dimension Data), Davide Cimolai (Israel Academy), Manuel Belletti (Androni-Sidermec).
Tanti i cacciatori di frazioni intermedie, specie per quanto concerne i corridori italiani desiderosi di mettersi in mostra davanti al proprio pubblico: citiamo, tra gli altri, Diego Ulissi (UAE Team Emirates), Enrico Battaglin (Katusha-Alpecin), Fabio Felline (Trek-Segafredo) e i rappresentanti delle Professional invitate (pensiamo, ad esempio, ai tanti talenti della Androni-Sidermec, da Fausto Masnada a Mattia Cattaneo passando per Andrea Vendrame).
