FJORDS. A Leigh Howard la prima (incredibile) tappa

PROFESSIONISTI | 31/08/2016 | 18:35
Firma australiana a Bergen, dove si è conclusa la prima tappa del Tour des Fjords: ad imporsi è stato infatti Leigh Howard della Iam Cycling che ha preceduto l'olandese Asselman della Roompot Oranje e il norvegese Jensen della Team Coop. Quarta posizione per Damiano Caruso e sesta per Andrea Pasqualon.
Fin qui tutto normale, ma è quel che è successo prima che normale non è stato: a venti chilometri dal traguardo, subito dopo lo scatto di Howard, Asselman e Kluge, al gruppo è stato segnalato un percorso sbagliato che ha permesso ai tre di guadagnare terreno. E poi, mentre la Katusha stava tentando il recupero, ecco la corsa fare i conti con una strada aperta al traffico e quindi gli inseguitori costretti a rallentare la loro marcia.
Alla fine Howard riesce ad anticipare Asselman e a conservare quei pochi secondi che gli consentono di ottenere il successo. Quanto agli organizzatori e ai responsabili della sicurezza, meglio stendere un velo pietoso.
