Second for Ganna in Giro TT
- 10 May 24
- race Report
Filippo Ganna powered to second as the Grenadiers make it four in the top 10 on the road to Perugia.
The Italian was the first of the TT specialists to hit the course, and set some ferocious benchmarks at the first and second time check, before crossing the line fastest to land in the hot seat.
Magnus Sheffield and Thymen Arensman would also fly round the course, to place second and third provisionally, with just the GC riders remaining.
Geraint Thomas would take to the course and produce a typically battling performance, falling slightly short of the top five but still coming home in 10th on the day.
The win would ultimately go to Tadej Pogacar (UAE Team Emirates), who, as the last rider of the day, crossed the line 17 seconds ahead of Pippo after a dominant final split.
