A splendid performance by Team Solution Tech–NIPPO–Rali in the second and final stage of the Clásica de Azuero, with Dušan Rajović securing a magnificent victory in the sprint.

The 138.4 km stage saw Rajović and the entire team manage the race perfectly, contested over a circuit to be completed twice.

In the finale, with a slightly uphill finish, the team worked flawlessly to bring Dušan into the best possible condition. Launched into an ideal position by his teammates, the Serbian sprinter perfectly read the final meters: aware of the characteristics of the slightly uphill finish, he waited for the right moment to attack, then managed to express all his power and secure a magnificent victory.

"What can I say, everything went perfectly – declares Dušan Rajović –. I've been chasing this victory since I arrived here in Panama. I knew the finish would be tricky, because it's slightly uphill, so I had to judge it carefully to avoid attacking too early or, conversely, too late. In the end it went the best way possible: I managed the sprint well, expressed myself at my best and secured the victory. Winning here is a source of great pride, both for me and for the entire team, especially because we're in the home of our sponsor Rali. I want to thank all my teammates: they worked right up to the final moment perfectly to support me and without their work this victory would not have been possible".
