What this race lacks in prestige it makes up for in hardware. The winner, Egan Bernal said in the post-race press conference: “This victory brings me a lot of emotions, especially here, 10km away from where I used to live when I came to Europe for racing. With all the friends I have in Piedmont, I feel at home. This is my first win in Italy and it comes at the top of a climb where Marco Pantani won before. I’m happy with my condition ahead of Il Lombardia. I’ll look for the best possible result on Saturday but with this win in the bag, I can finish the season with serenity. I want to ride the Giro d’Italia, hopefully next year but we’ll have to see the route and discuss with the team.” |
