Simon Yates trionfa al Tour of the Alps 2021: il britannico in forza alla Bike Exchange si impone nella classifica generale, mentre la quinta e ultima tappa viene vinta dall’austriaco Felix Grossschartner.
Si conclude con la Valle del Chiese / Idroland – Riva del Garda, di 120 km, la corsa organizzata dall’Euregio Trentino – Alto Adige – Tirolo. Una frazione ancora mossa, ma meno delle precedenti.
Si parte a tutta, ma l’alta velocità non impedisce ad un folto drappello di prendere il sopravvento sul resto del gruppo.
Questi i nomi degli attaccanti: Matteo Fabbro e Felix Großschartner (Bora-hansgrohe),Tejay Van Garderen (EF-Nippo), Tony Gallopin, François Bidard (Ag2r-Citroen), Michael Storer e Nicolas Roche (Team DSM), Thibaut Pinot (Groupama-FDJ), Vadim Pronskiy (Astana-Premier Tech), Alessandro De Marchi, Daniel Martin (Israel Start-Up Nation), Hermann Pernsteiner (Bahrain-Victorious), Julen Amezqueta (Caja Rural-Seguros RGA), Ivan Ramiro Sosa (Ineos Grenadiers), Georg Steinhauser (Tirol-KTM), Callum Scotson (BikeExchange).
Ci sono anche nomi blasonati tra quelli citati, ma essendo lontani in classifica, la squadra del primatista non forza per andare a richiudere.
Sulla discesa di Tenno, davanti restano in sette: sono Pinot, De Marchi, Amezqueta, Steinhauser, Roche, Gallopin e Großschartner. È proprio quest’ultimo ad operare lo scatto decisivo, quello che gli vale il successo parziale.
Dopo averci provato più volte anche nei giorni scorsi, ed essere giunto dietro in un’occasione al nostro Gianni Moscon, finalmente l’austriaco riesce ad alzare le braccia al cielo davanti a Roche e al nostro De Marchi, mentre proprio Moscon vince la volata dei battuti a 40″.
La classifica generale non cambia, così Simon Yates conquista il successo finale succedendo nell’albo d’oro a Pavel Sivakov. A completare il podio troviamo Pello Bilbao (Bahrain-Victorious) e Alexander Vlasov (Astana-Premier Tech).
