She was the big favorite and did not disappoint expectations. Nicole Bracco, from Cuneo's Savigliano, was crowned Italian road champion in the women's second-year novice category. It's a double celebration for the Cycling Society of Cesano Maderno, chaired by Giuseppe Fontana and directed by Guido Roncolato, who replicate the success achieved a few hours earlier with Aurora Cerame among the first-year girls.

Bracco built her triumph by breaking away alone from a group of six athletes and then sprinting to beat Tuscan Olivia Giovannetti from Team Fabiana Luperini.
