Stage 1:  Cancellara Sector Ceremony  Full Results and Report

Fabian Cancellara with Mauro Vegni, RCS Sport Cycling Director, and the Major of Asciano, Paolo Bonari during the Sector Milestone Ceremony honoring Cancellara's three wins at Strade Bianche

Fabian Cancellara said: “It’s a great honour and a great pleasure for me to receive this recognition because this is a very important race. We’ve seen how fast it developed worldwide in the past few years. I’m proud to have won it three times. It’ll remain in the history of this beautiful event. For tomorrow I pick Sagan and Van Avermaet who have already showed in Belgium that they are very strong but I wouldn’t disregard Stybar and Felline either – I’ve seen them in good shape at the last races.”
