OMAN. HAAS FIRMA IL NUMERO

PROFESSIONISTI | 14/02/2018 | 12:05
Nathan Haas vince la seconda tappa del Tour dell'Oman firmando un bel numero nel finale di una tappa molto tirata.

La corsa è stata caratterizzata dalla lunga fuga - gli attaccanti sono scattati al km 8 - promossa da Loic Chetout (Cofidis), Markel Irizar (Trek Segafredo), Fabricio Ferrari (Caja Rural-Seguros RGA) e Danny Pate (Rally Cycling), con quest'ultimo che è stato il primo a staccarsi sulla salita di Al Hamriyah. L'ultimo ad arrendersi è stato lo spagnolo Irizar, raggiunto dal gruppo a circa cinque chilometri dal traguardo.

Poi è stato Niki Terpstra della Quick Step ad accelerare, seguito da un plotoncino di una quindicina di uomini che hanno accelerato in discesa. Sul traguardo di Al Bustan, Haas è riuscito a battere Van Avermaet e Litsenko, con Felline che è stato il migliore degli italiani con il suo nono posto. Molto attento anche Vincenzo Nibali che ha preso il treno giusto e ha chiuso nel plotoncino dei migliori.

Haas, che è alla sua prima stagione con la maglia della Katusha Alpecin, è balzato anche al comando della classifica generale. Per il team tedesco si tratta del primo successo stagionale in gare UCI, il secondo dopo la vittoria colta da Tiago Machado nella gara inaugurale della stagione portoghese.
