March 11/15 13:48 pm - Tirreno Adriatico: Stage 1 results
Posted by Editoress on 03/11/15
Adriano Malori (Movistar Team) wins stage one of the 50th Tirreno Adriatico, completing the 5.4km time trial in 6:04. Fabian Cancellara (Trek Factory Racing) was second at one second back. Greg Van Avermaet (BMC Racing Team) was third.
Quotes from winner Malori:
“The time trial was a rush of adrenaline, taking the bends at top speed, and finishing totally out of breath. I didn’t think I’d manage to win on roads like that. Normally, on this type of route, Cancellara is the rider to beat. But today it all went perfectly for me.”
Leader's Blue Jersey: “It’s a dream. It’s wonderful. I won the final time trial a year ago, but this time I get to wear the blue jersey of the race leader, which will leave me with wonderful memories. Wearing it just for one day is a big deal.”
Hour record: “It’s unlikely that I’ll attack the hour record because I don’t have much technique on the track, and it is a lot more important than you might think. I’d need two months to work at it. It might be something for the future, but for now I’m focused on the road.”
Canadians finished: 58th Svein Tuft (Orica-GreenEDGE) at 17s back and 94th Ryder Hesjedal (Team Cannondale-Garmin) at 23s back.
