Tour of California, Westra anticipa la volata di Sagan
Con un attacco a cinque chilometri dal traguardo, l'olandese Lieuwe Westra ha anticipato la volata del gruppo e vinto la prima tappa del Giro di Califonria. Davvero bella l'azione di Westra, al quale ha dato una bella mano Francisco Mancebo, che si è piazzato secondo. Grande sconfitto di giornata, ovviamente, Peter Sagan che si è piazzato terzo a sei secondo di distacco. [tuttobiciweb.it]
