ARCTIC RACE OF NORWAY: PER LA TAPPA ANCORA MATHIEU VAN DER POEL, VITTORIA FINALE PER CHERNETSKI
Ancora la Corendon-Circus sugli scudi con la vittoria di tappa di Mathieu Van der Poel. La vittoria finale è andata al portacolori della Astana Chernetski.
Sesto successo su strada per il ciclocrossista Mathieu Van Der Poel (Corendon-Circus) che, dopo l’ultima tappa dell’Arctic Race of Norway, tornerà ora a dedicarsi anima e corpo al ciclopratismo.
Come nelle tappe precedenti anche la Kvalslund – Alta, è stata animata da una fuga nata nelle fasi iniziali e che non ha avuto fortuna, terminata quando al traguardo mancavano 5 km, giusto in tempo per far salire alla ribalta i corridori che ambivano alla vittoria finale.
Su un arrivo perfetto per le sue caratteristiche il portacolori dell Coredon-Circus ha approfittato dell’allungo dell’irlandese Nicolas Roche (BMC), avvenuto quando mancava un chilometro e mezzo al traguardo, per lanciarsi verso la vittoria, ottenuta davanti a Sondre Holst Enger (Israel Cycling Academy). Seguono nell’ordine d’arrivo Quentin Pacher (Vital Concept), Loïc Chetout (Cofidis) e Benjamin Declerq (Sport Vlaanderen – Baloise).
Con l’ottavo posto sul traguardo Sergei Chernetski (Astana Pro Team) non solo mantiene, ma incrementa il suo vantaggio in classifica su Markus Hoelgaard (Joker Icopal) e Colin Joyce (Rally Cycling), che chiudono rispettivamente secondo e terzo a 11″ e 12″. Per Chernetski si tratta della seconda vittoria di una corsa a tappe poichè nel 2013 si aggiudicò, al primo anno da professionista, il Tour des Fjords. Si vede che queste latitudini portano bene al corridore nato a Sertolovo ventotto anni fa e oggi giunto alla sua prima vittoria stagionale.
